THANKSGIVING … GONE A FEW DAYS
AND HERE I SIT TO WRITE
OUR ANNUAL HOLIDAY GREETING
AND I NEED TO GET THIS RIGHT.
SEEMS MY HANDS JUST WON’T DO IT
EVEN IF MY MIND IS OK.
I’LL JUST SEE WHAT HAPPENS …
IF NOT, WE WILL TRY ANOTHER DAY.
YEAR ENDING IS UPON US
READY OR NOT IT COMES,
WE SEND YOU HOLIDAY GREETINGS,
WITH MEMORIES … AND NEW FUN!
THE NEWS THIS YEAR IS CRAZY!
WHO AT OUR AGE SHOULD MOVE?
DID IT JUST LAST MONTH,
ROUGH? … YES … NOT SMOOTH!
WE MOVED A FEW MINUTES AWAY
JUST 5 MILES AS A CROW FLIES,
IT’S AN “OVER 55” COMMUNITY,
AND WE CERTAINLY DO QUALIFY!
THE MOVE WAS MOTIVATED
BY “FINANCES” … FOR SURE,
RENTING SEEMED SO FOOLISH
WITH NO CHANCE OF A CURE.
OUR FAMILY … A GREAT HELP,
CHILDREN AND GRANDS TOO.
NEEDED LOTS OF SKILL
PICTURES HUNG. … NOT A FEW!
NOW AT THIS TIME OF HOLIDA’YS
THIS FAMILY IS “ON THE GO”
TELLING THIS YEAR’S “DOINGS”
PLUS GREETINGS TO ALL WE KNOW!
THESE LAST DAYS FIND RUSS & JANET
WITH CHURCH WORK FILLING TIME,
THEN A BIT OF HEAVY GARDENING,
PLUS RV TRIPS … MAKE THIS RHYME.
YOU MIGHT CATCH KEITH AND CINDI
TO ALABAMA… THEY HIT THE ROAD.
REMODELING AN OLD FARMHOUSE
BUSY, BUSY THEIR CURRENT MODE.
GRANDSON COLIN & WIFE MAGAN
AND THEIR SWEET CHILDREN TOO,
… GRAYSON PLUS ELIZABETH
MAKE UP A LIVELY CREW.
STEPHANIE, & OUR GRANDSON BRENT
HAVE SOPHIA … GROWING SMART,
THEN COMES LITTLE WILLIAM,
A DYNAMO FROM THE START.
RYAN AND AMANDA ALSO,
ADD TO THE HOLIDAY FUN,
NO, WE CAN’T KEEP UP WITH SUCH,
THEY’VE GOT US ON THE RUN!
WE ARE BLESSED!... SUCH A FAMILY!
WE LOVE THEM! … EVERYONE!
TO ALL OUR FRIENDS & FAMILY … YOU!
ARE OUR BLESSINGS! … EVERYONE!
WE REMEMBER MANY FRIENDS
WHILE MAKING UP THIS RHYME,
SENDING OUR SEASONS GREETINGS
AND TELL YOU … ONE MORE TIME!
HAVE A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS,
T’IS THE SEASON FOR THAT … AND MORE!
WISHING YOU ALL MUCH HAPPINESS …
AND A BLESSED … 2024!
