The New That Happened To Unfold-From The Old # 382

A beautiful spring, in which the flowers grow-
From a long hard winter, filled with ice and snow.

Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose # 852 (That Old Fashioned Pie)

 

TO BE THANKFUL, THAT PREPARING THANKSGIVING DINNER IS EASIER TODAY-

THAN IT WAS A LONG TIME AGO, BACK IN THE DAY.

***

THE CORN COMES STRAIGHT, OUT OF THE CAN-

NO SCHUCKING HERE, NOT MUCH WORK, AT HAND.

***

THE TURKEY IS BOUGHT AT THE STORE-

HAVING TO GO OUT AND HUNT FOR IT, WELL, THAT IS NO MORE.

***

THE GREEN BEANS ARE HANDY TOO-

NOT PICKED OUT OF THE GARDEN, LIKE THE RELATIVES USED TO.

***

NO CRACKING AND PICKING THE PECAN-

COMING PRE-PICKED, THOSE DAYS ARE CERTAINLY GONE.

***

NO FLOUR TO PRESS AND UNFOLD-

FOR WE HAVE INSTANT BISCUIT, AND THE ROLL.

***

NO MORE TAKING A TURN-

THE BUTTER COMES IN STICKS, THERE IS NO MORE CHURN.

***

NO HIKING, IN THE WOODS, AMONG THE MOSS-

FOR WE USE JELLIED CRANBERRY SAUCE.

***

LIFE MAY BE EASIER, BUT, FOR ONE MORE TASTE, OF GREAT-GREAT-GREAT-GRANDMOTHER’S HOMEMADE PIE-

I’D LET THE EASY GO, AND GIVE THE ABOVE A TRY.

Gonna Try It-Not On A Diet # 856

It’s hard to skimp-
Once you start peeling
those boiled shrimp.

Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose # 629 (Working To Get Ahead)

They said to work hard and you will get ahead-

So with that thought, I got out of bed.

.

I worked in the morning, all day long-

I whistled while I worked, I sang a familiar song.

.

I worked until way late, into the night-

To get ahead, I kept the thought in sight.

.

I worked the holidays, and all the days, in between-

Looking for that getting ahead, that would eventually

be seen.

.

I worked until I could work no more-

At that moment, I thought that I had bought the store.

.

But, when the bills came, the bank account came up short-

I tried my best to be a good sport.

.

They said to work hard and you will get ahead-

So, with that thought I got out of bed.
