Gramma Krackers

I love when flowers
go to seed
and chickadees
come to feed
and there’s no need
to deadhead,
nor to weed.

When you say haiku,
I say gesundheit,
give you a tissue.
.
When you say tanka
I say you’re welcome –
we are so polite.
.
When you say meter
I think therefore iambic.
Tell me you are too.
.
Can you play on words?
Maybe if they all had wheels
they could play on you.

‘Tis fall, indeed!
I love when flowers
go to seed
and chickadees
come to feed
and there’s no need
to deadhead,
nor to weed.

A re-post – just an artless little ditty from Gramma Krackers. (My alter ego).

If a joke cracks in the forest
and there’s no one there to hear it,
is it still funny?

All Right

Introducing the wit and wisdom (?) of Gramma Krackers – (an alter ego)
She will possibly make an occasional appearance. Or not.
.
When did it become all right
to write alright ?
What about that rule
we learned in school
that it was not all right
to write alright ?
If it’s now right
to write alright
then let’s all write it right.
And that will be all right with me
if it’s alright with you.

(Just something completely silly…)
.
When you say haiku,
I say gesundheit,
give you a Kleenex.
.
When you say tanka
I say you’re welcome –
we are so polite.
.
When you say meter
I think therefore iambic.
Tell me you are too.
.
Can you play on words?
Maybe if they all had wheels
they could play on you.
