Going fishing with a cane pole and
a can of worms and hooks and a
bobber too Down at the fish-
ing hole there stand a might-
y oak the best place to
fish and lie in
the shade of
the big
oak
Down at the old fishing hole that dad
and grandpa fished at before
me is the best place on earth
Specially on a hot
summers day to fish
and swim and lie
in the shade
of the
tree
Summer is the time for fun Playing
with friends going swimming and
fishing at the best place in
the world is the old swim-
ming and fishing hole
It has been there
for a hun-
dred years
FUN

Betty Lane Poem
A place to see wildflowers in great
abundance is high in the mount-
tains in a bright green meadow
The sky is so blue and
the flowers colors
are so bright that
you look at
them in
awe
Wildflowers grow in so many places with
beautiful colors of different
shades of colors such as red
blue lavender pink white
yellow Their are many
kinds of flowers
for us to
see from
God
God made the wildflowers for everyone
to enjoy But first you have to
slow down to look at them
They come in many shapes and
different colors
you will find them
in fields and
roadside
ditchs

Betty Lane Poem
I have a friend and former classmate
and now she lives in the land down under.
She comes home every year in the
summer for the class reunion
but I have not gone to any of them.
Would like to see her but most
likely will not. Did get a chance
to talk with her on the phone
last November when my father
died and it was nice to talk
with her.
Her name is Wilma she was
a very kind and good person.
I found out that she was born
in Australia so that was news
to me.
I also heard that she has the
same thing that her mother
had those I'm not sure what
that was but it's not good.
So, I will keep her in my prayers
and hope she will get better.
The Father in Heaven knows
the answer to that.
But we can only hope and
pray to Him for her.
For this is my friend who lives
in the land down under.

Camping is a good way to get back
to nature. Finding a spot
setup camp and pitch a tent.
Cooking and eating the
food we caught fishing.
Cleaning up and
sleeping in
the tent.
FUN

A soft little breeze
shaking the feathers
in the air
as the wings flutter
in the skies

Betty Lane Poem
Time is an endless thing. It goes on
and on always forward never back
once gone never to be relived for
time waits for no one or anything.
A second turns into a minute and
a minute turns into an hour and
an hour turns into a day and a
day turns into a week and a
week turns into a month and
a month turns into a year,
this is a simple example
of how time marches forward.

Betty Lane Poem
Looking back to the old west I can see
the open plains with the tall grass
weaving in the breeze and the clouds
floating high in the sky.
In the distance there is a cloud of dust
coming from a herd of buffalo on the run.
The reason they are running I do not know
but they are coming fast hopefully they
will stop at the tall grass to eat.
For there is a thousand or more of them.
In the distance I can see there are men upon
horses with bow and arrows in amongst the herd
they are the hunting party from a village near by.
For the people of that village need food and clothing
from the mighty buffalo to survive. They take just
what they need and no more. For they know how to live
with nature, not against it. For this reason I admire
them. They were very smart in the ways of nature
more so than we are now days.
They believed in the Great Spirit and Mother Earth
and a lot of other spirits or gods. They also believed
in visions. Something now days, if we get them, we just
dismiss them and go on with our lives.
Prehaps if we took heed of them we would not be in the
state that we are.
But who am I to say anything about this subject for
I am nobody. I do wish and pray that we will come back
and start to use our good common sense before it is to
late.
This is just my opinion.
