Welcome to My Seriously Joy-filled World of Words! 

In a world that makes no sense to me, making nonsense makes sense.

I'm a writer, reciter, a speaker, a teacher, a sister, a daughter, a mother, a wife. A listener, a seeker , a maker of nonsense, a reader, a leader, a lipslippery fool. A doctor, a walker, a talk-talk-talk- talker, a giggle-glad Oma, an odd sort of soul.

Yearner and learner 
An ever beginner! 
Hope is my teacher 
Life is my school.

Why Burnsie Missed His Friday Deadline

It was Robbie Burns Day Friday and so Burnsie celebrated all weekend.  He did get back to the books this morning  and offered this :
  They named me after Bobbie Burns
  In hopes I'd be a poet
  It t'is a long apprenticeship 
  I hope I do not blow it. 
  My love is like my orange orange ball
  That flies through bluest sky
  I'd jump ten thousand miles I would   
  T'ill all the seas run dry. 
 
          (Or something like that.)  The End. 
Ad here Eva Cassidy sings  the original my love is like a red red rose ... like no one else can.
