Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose # 848 (Layaway Past and Still Present)

Looks like the holidays are about to get underway-

So, that means it is about time to tend to that layaway.

.

Of course, things have changed, but some remain the same-

Like back in the day, a favorite toy, a favorite game.

.

Monopoly, to know-

The one where you collect $200, after you pass go.

.

Crayons, to color, from the heart-

Only a paper needed, to get that start.

.

Play-Doh, to acrue-

To form, and then let harden as a statue.

.

The Spirograph, where the lines swirl-

To take a line, into complete whirl.

.

Lincoln Logs to build over and over

again-

A barn, a fence, a complete family cabin.

.

Many childhood books to pick over and

remember-

That would be enjoyed reading, in the

month, of December.

.

Silly Putty, to press-

With so many shapes, to address.

.

And, of course, we all know-

What we’ve done with LEGO.

.

Etch A Sketch, to design-

And, create, whatever is on the mind.

.

Hot Wheels, always had their place-

So many collected requiring a case.

.

Skates, on the sidewalk, or street-

One by one, or two to compete.

.

And, Mr. Potato Head, who is

always in re-arrange-

Wait, I’ve got one more thing to change.

.

Always wonderful, to have on hand-

Is that special board, to make one’s way

through Candyland.

.

Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose # 995 (Beards In The Park)

CHEAP SUNGLASSES  are a great line-

But, a statue, in town, would be a better find.

.

To do the TUBE SNAKE BOOGIE, all night light-

The idea, of a statue, in town, is getting strong.

.

Like an idea, that is growing LEGS-

An idea, put forth right, that hints with quiet begs.

.

An idea, that would be a sure win-

Not just a thought, to put away on a PINCUSHION.

.

Houston, GIVE IT UP, you know that there is a small space-

For this adventure, in statured classic musical taste.
