Here’s to a girl with a heart of gold
All of a sudden 17 years old

We formed a bond from the very start
So strong it won’t ever break apart

The years flew too fast from where we sit
Now the babe in our arms is a beauty with wit

You know how we love and admire you?
Well today you’re a hero to us, it’s true

Seeing the wise decisions you’re making
Has us so proud our innards are shaking

Keep your eye on the prize and you’ll be a star
Need the shirt off our backs?  Just yell, we’re not far

With hearts full of love we toast you today
Rhyming poems, dear Dolly, Hip Hip Hooray!

Happy Birthday!

Rhyming poems – for every occasion

Ever since I began giving rhyming poems to my boss he’s eased up on me.
I send him when he’s grumpy.  I send them for every holiday and then some.
Once in a while I’ll give a limerick that really cracks him up.

I really believe my efforts are why I still have a job.  Not that I’m a bad
worker who needs to rely on buttering up the boss to stay employed, it’s
just that it gives me a tiny edge over someone else who might be trying to
push me out of the way and steal my job.

I mean, how do you fire someone who is as considerate and uplifting as
I am?  Rhyming poems are going to take me right to the top of the
company.  It’s a very cool and maninulative gimmick and I’m mighty
glad I thought of it.

My daddy, my husband, my momma
Are excited as can be
Their baby’s turning thirty
And they’re going all out for me

They’re throwing a magical birthday bash
With a bonfire lighting your way
Fabulous music, bountiful drinks
And mouth melting coo shon de lay

We were just girls at kindergarten

Not that long ago

Now here we are grown up and gorgenous

Turning  the big Three-O

Through thick and thin we’ve been together

You’re my forever friend

We’ll be dancing, shopping, clubbing, dining

‘Til the very end

Do You Want To Make Someone Feel Like Royalty?

My girlfriend was having a special birthday and I wanted
to make her feel like a goddess.   How could I make it
the most special night of her life?  I wanted to pour out
my feelings of love for her and make it a totally romantic
evening.  How could I put into words what a sexy, adorable,
hot, funny, smart, bigger-than-life woman she was, and
would always be, to me?

I spent hours on the internet trying to come up with the
perfect gift for the perfect woman.  Well of course I would
be taking her out to dinner, wining and dining her with
flowers and champagne and, last but not least, I had
the engagement ring already bought and paid for.

Being a hopeless romantic, I finally found it.
I could hire a ghostwriter to compose a poem just
for her, taking my words and weaving them into a
beautiful story about her, all in clever rhyme.

When I read it to her, she was one happy lady!

A True Story

One day Mom and Dad said we were driving 900 miles to Alabama
to go Christmas shopping for every friend and relative we have.

We were going to find the coolest things ever and they wouldn’t
even cost a lot of money.

My sister Daisy and I were so excited we didn’t have one single fight
the whole way.  She didn’t say “Joel’s a dork” or anything mean for
the whole 900 miles.

Our parents said we were headed to Scottsboro, Alabama, the home
of The Unclaimed Baggage Center.

When airplanes lose people’s luggage that’s where it ends up.
Not that luggage gets lost often, but it still adds up to 100
lost bags a day, or 36,500 bags a year!  That’s a lot of stuff.

The airlines don’t lose bags on purpose.  Sometimes
the name tags fall off.  Or bags get put on the wrong plane by
mistake.

But the airlines always pay people for their lost bags.  They
pay about $650 a bag.  Sometimes it’s more than what their things
are worth, and sometimes less.  Still, I hope I never lose my stuff.

People come from all over hunting for bargains.  Mom said you never know what
you’re going to find and they sell everything for very little money.

We couldn’t believe the treasures we found.  Tons of clothes that had
been cleaned and pressed.  Jewelry.  Cameras.  Books.  Games.
There was even a live rattle snake.

I fell in love with a little toy soldier.  I had to have it and
paid for it with my own money.

On the way home I couldn’t stop playing with it.  It took about
500 miles before I noticed something scratched into the bottom of
the boot.

In the bright sunlight I finally was able to make it out.  It said “Ian” and a phone number.
That must be the kid who lost it.  I started to feel worried.  I loved my new soldier, but whoever
lost it must love it too.

I thought about it for the next 400 miles.  Mom and Dad said to
let my conscience be my guide.  It took another two days of thinking
and then …. I called!

And that’s how I met my best friend Ian.

WASHINGTON — Americans from Washington to California marked Memorial Day with parades, barbecues and somber reflection in a holiday infused with fresh meaning by the approaching 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.

The National Memorial Day Parade in Washington honored veterans and America’s war dead but also featured special tributes to Sept. 11 first responders, victims and their families. Also fresh in the minds of parade participants and watchers was the killing less than a month ago of Osama bin Laden, who masterminded the attacks.

Elsewhere, military jets thundered through the sky above New York after a wreath-laying ceremony aboard the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum, while hundreds of volunteers put small flags on the 25,000 graves at a sprawling military cemetery near Las Vegas. U.S. troops fighting in Afghanistan also took time out to remember fallen comrades.

Along the parade route in Washington, children sat on parents’ shoulders and throngs cheered the passing high school marching bands and floats of war veterans. Special guests included Medal of Honor recipients, astronaut and Korean War veteran Buzz Aldrin, and actor Gary Sinise, a veterans advocate who played Lt. Dan in the Oscar-winning film “Forrest Gump.”

Hamilton Peterson, who lost his father and stepmother when the hijacked United Airlines 93 crashed into a field in Shanksville, Pa., said the looming anniversary of the terrorist attacks should serve as a reminder to Americans to be vigilant.

“Obviously, bin Laden’s death is a highlight of the 10th anniversary. However, we recognize that future attacks are imminent and that, absent using 9/11 as a model for how to respond, all Americans need to get involved. It can’t just be the military,” said Peterson, 51.

Sgt. James Patrick McMichael of the Arlington County, Va., sheriff’s office was among the first responders to the Pentagon and was diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder about two years later.

He said that even though the anniversary was dredging up painful memories, it’s still critical that the public never lose memory of the attacks — especially to make sure they don’t repeat this.

The planet’s in financial meltdown
A pandemic’s galloping on
