Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose (Hurricane Season 2017)

Another hurricane season to be-
Beginning with Arlene, Bret, and Cindy.
.
Much prep time to stop and spend-
As we look for Don, Emily, and Franklin.
.
Named hurricanes in the year of 2017-
Such as Gert, Harvey, and Irene.
.
Supplies gathered and rules of safety-
With an approaching storm Jose, Katia, and Lee.
.
Maria, Nate, Ophelia, and Philippe-
We all wished the hurricanes would stay away.
.
An idea in which we all tend to agree-
But not reality according to Rina, Sean, and Tammy.
.
So as we head towards the 2017 hurricane season much
protection to see-
Last but not least Vince and Whitney.

Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose # 932 (Here They Come)

It was very clear-

That they would suddenly appear.

.

For this is their season-

They come out, for a good reason.

.

Same shape, but different colors-

The sight of them causes heart stirs.

.

The color yellow used to be their only

style-

But, nowadays, with much variety, they

bring many a smile.

.

One always tends to expect-

A group of Peeps, in their Easter basket.

.

It was very clear-

That they would suddenly appear.

Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose (Coloring Those Eggs)

The Easter Bunny put his eggs, out on the table-

And colored them, as best as he was able.

.

He started off with blue-

Painting shiny and making them look brand new.

.

And next came the color yellow-

Just like the sun, looking so mellow.

.

The next egg was painted green-

Just like the grass, and other plants that are seen.

.

Red stood out, as the egg began to dry-

Just like a fire engine is the reason why.

.

The Easter Bunny also mixed colors and made a blend-

This is how much of his time, he did spend.

.

Swirls and stripes and all kinds of shapes-

He used pencils, and all kinds of tapes.

.

Purple eggs came last, as it was his favorite color-

And then he cleaned up his mess as it were.

.

As the colored eggs dried, they were then set-

In many a beautiful Easter basket.

.

To be delivered to children all over the world-

Beautifully painted eggs in prime colors and swirl.

.

The Easter Bunny put his eggs, out on the table-

And colored them, as best as he was able.

Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose # 757 (Easter Eggs In Dye)

The eggs began as brown and white-

When the hen laid them, in the morning light.

.

But, today, was going to be different-

With many, many other colors being spent.

.

First came the purple, oh, so bright-

Shining so pretty, right there on site.

.

And, then came the red, that always

demanded attention-

The eggs changing colors was ever so

much fun.

.

Yellow always showed its face-

Pleasant indeed brightening up,

the entire place.

.

Blue is for boys, and girls too-

Whether light or dark, the hue is so true.

.

Orange and pink came next in line-

Egg after egg, a new contrast to find.

.

Many other combinations, came along

as well-

Imaginations, came into play, as all could

tell.

.

And, when the dyeing, was all over and done-

They were gently put into a basket, on Easter

Morning for the special little one.

.

The eggs began as brown and white-

When the hen laid them, in the morning light.

Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose # 759 (That Very Last Egg)

 

The egg hunt was begun-

And, it was going to be so much fun.

.

We could see many eggs, on the ground-

And, we knew that before it was all over,

every single one of them would be found.

.

We were all in a big rush-

To retrieve the purple egg, under the brush.

.

And, the one that was immediately spotted

under the tree-

Along with the other ones, that we could

easily see.

.

And, then it got a bit harder, for some

were hidden so well-

Under a rock, behind the barn, and inside

a bell.

.

After the hunt, we counted the eggs in our

baskets-

And, we came to the conclusion, that there

was still one more egg to get.

.

We searched and searched high and low-

Until we had run out of ideas with no place

else to go.

.

Mama smiled and such a silly look she did get-

Good grief, the very last egg was in her apron pocket.

.

The egg hunt was begun-

And, it was going to be so much fun.

Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose # 943 (To Follow The Beep)

 

To fill an Easter basket-
To get as many eggs as one can get.
.
The beeping eggs guide the way-
To stay on path, to limit the stray.
.
To hear a beep, and then head over there-
This event was put on by loving folks who care.
.
For I cannot see, but, I can hear the sound-
Many, many eggs, will be heard and found.
.
My basket is heavy, as I walk away-
I’m just a child enjoying a glorious day.
.
To fill an Easter basket-
To get as many eggs as one can get.
