Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose # 484 (Finally Cleaned Out That Closet)

I cleaned out the closet-
As best as I could get.
.
It had been a while-
Since it had been done
in grand style.
.
Those old shoes-
Those papers, with much
wanted saved news.
.
That old hat box-
Those mismatched socks.
.
That little TV-
That we no longer watch
or see.
.
That dress-
That makes me look a mess.
.
Those pants-
That give my figure, quite
an enhance.
.
Couldn’t throw away that old
blanket-
For it would cause a generational
regret.
.
Still a lot in there, but, a bit more
clear-
Not really in the front, but more
in the rear.
.
I cleaned out the closet-
As best as I could get.

Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose # 946 (Running Legs)

I saw the running legs-

They were in motion hunting for Easter eggs.

.

The eggs had been put out the night before-

By the Easter Bunny, not bought at the store.

.

Some were plastic and some were hard-boiled-

It was obvious, to see, that the Easter Bunny had

labored and toiled.

.

As he does every year, without fail-

Whether sunshine, thunderstorm, or a bit, of hail.

.

Before long, the Easter baskets were filled-

And, then the running legs were finally stilled.

.

I saw the running legs-

They were in motion hunting for Easter eggs.

Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose (Empty Basket)

I woke up and went into the yard-

I walked around and looked real hard.

.

There were no eggs to be found-

None at all were on the ground.

.

As I looked around in a gentle breeze-

There we no eggs in the tree.

.

Nor were there any behind the tree-

What could be going on? How could this be?

.

With my empty basket, I headed back inside-

I was sad, and hurt was my personal pride.

.

The Easter Bunny must have skipped my place-

It was so grim, and so hard to face.

.

And then suddenly I woke up from this nightmare-

I went outside, and much better did I fare.

.

I woke up and went into the yard-

I walked around and looked real hard.
