food, Poetic Asides, Panama 5

 One more Day

 

I have three days of to-dos in one,

Plus do caregiving for eight hours

Plus deal with the food in the fridge

So when we’re gone nothing sours.

 

Snacking on an eight-hour drive,

Dropping Hubby off with the kids,

And then fly to Fort Lauderdale

Where I plan to meet with my sis.

 

That’s where we will board a cruise ship,

Eating yummy food the whole way

South to the Panama Canal.

I bet we will wish we could stay.

 

First things first, get these to-dos done.

Breakfast, then off in morning sun.

 Two More Days

 

Two more days, and then we will drive

Get to Mesa well and alive

With Loren in tow

Yay, no snow

Onward go

Then revive

 

Drove up the hill to the center

We teachers greet as we enter

Do last minute prep

Ready? Yep!

Come with pep

Remember

 

Share at morning circle to start

Then music, poetry and art

And then we all hike

Forts they like

Chaos spike

Be a part

 Three More Days

 

Now three more days and then we go

Rejoicing that there is no snow

I’ll take time to pray

Plan my day

Have His way

To and fro

I planned my class, NCBC

What the kids did learn, I will see

I’ll give them a quiz

Who’s a whiz?

Will all fizz?

Woe is me

Four More Days

 

Now, four more days and life goes on.

And soon we’ll wonder at time gone.

Try to get things done,

Then we run.

To have fun,

We are drawn.

Sunday and we enjoyed His presence

At church, we all felt His essence

Eat lunch, but first pray

Phone call day

Come what may

TV hence

 Five More Days

 

In five more days, we’ll start our trip

And pray the car won’t slide or slip

Excitement will grow

This I know

As we go

On the ship

Jesus, Our Promise

 

A common thing it is, to die.

So many think of this and sigh.

They’re left on their own,

No forever home,

Cry and moan.

God is nigh.

Kathy Priscilla Nicholson

Loved by all her kin

Made us laugh with ease

Flooded us with memories

 

Judy Shannon Riley

Wasn’t often smiley

But when she was, what a joy!

For humor she did employ

 

Linda Susan Baehr

Should run for mayor

She keeps things in order

They need her at the border

Liked to join with eaters

Enthusiastic soul

Prayed for all to be whole

Spread joy like a canon

She was a great aunt

Wishes she’d grant
