We were having a dozy afternoon in the backyard
With Pappa in his swim trunks and I in my floppy hat.
Our gals were about to settle down
For a nice hammocky nap….
When out from our bedroom there arose such a clatter
I sprang from my lawn chair to see what was the matter
Away to the glass slider, I flew like a flash
Ran into the slider and felt like an a*s
My computer screen was emitting an eerie blue glow
And I began to shiver, sweat and scream, “Oh, Lord no…”
My very own Apple computer was yelling “COME HERE!!…
Your Mamma talk blog has been up all year.
Have you forgotten? Haven’t you ignored her enough?”
Then, my keyboard began to type up some stuff…
“You have a blog. A lonely blog, too.
She feels neglected and she’s feeling quite blue.”
Well, I tried to explain and I started to Boo-Hoo
“We were on vacation and the kids had the flu.
Besides, who blogs in the summer, see here for a clue.”
“’Enough,” screamed the ‘puter, “You know what to do!”
So, here I sit hoping and praying that this will do.
Some bad poetry and goofy off season fun.
Now, back to the wading pool. I was enjoying the sun!

Love it!! No need to apologize... go lay in the sun and take a dip in the pool cuz before you know it they'll all be back in school... No, I am not nearly as talented as you, but I had to add my own little rhyme. Ha!
