Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose # 669 (Time To Pass It On)

Rosalie remembered when-

The years she worked out, in the garden.

.

She planted flowers, she planted the seed-

She planted everything, that her garden

did need.

.

And each spring, she would receive a reward-

For all of that work, that had been a pleasure,

not a bit hard.

.

But, as the years, begin to pass by-

It was harder to get to the garden, but she

did try.

.

The day came when she could no longer

do, what she used to do-

So through her bedroom window, she

watched her granddaughter follow through.

.

Her granddaughter picked the weeds and

tended to the garden overall-

Beginning in spring, all the way to the fall.

.

Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose # 749 (Memories To Spot)

There were so many memories, to conjure up and yield-

From the glimpse, of that old worn out house, I spotted

from the freeway, that held onto it’s spot, in the field.

.

The paint had worn off many years ago-

The wood, on the sides, were beginning to bow.

.

A young man had built this house with his bare

hand-

To protect his family, from the weather, and the

wildlife that crossed the land.

.

Times were good, and a few were bad-

But, overall, a memorable life, this family had.

.

As the children grew, they began to move away-

Off to a new life, is what they always had to say.

.

And, the once young man, who had built this

house-

Shared the end, of his years, along with his also

aged spouse.

.

The children would come back, now and then-

Along with the grandchildren, to remember their

own childhoods way back when.

.

When the old man and woman passed

away-

They were buried near the old house,

a custom, in that time and day.

.

As the years grew, no one longer came-

Too many years gone by, things just weren’t

the same.

.

No more family, to upkeep the old place-

It now belonged to the elements, as it continued,

to take up space.

.

There were so many memories, to conjure up and yield-

From the glimpse, of that old worn out house, that I spotted

from the freeway, that held onto it’s spot, in the field.
