A Good Mystery

A Good Mystery


I love a good mystery
A real whodunit,
I love the Hallmark Mystery and Movie Channel,
Nothing like watching Andy Griffith play the part of “Matlock”
He always figured it out
And revealed who the murderer is in the courtroom,
Sometimes he even played his mandolin and sang,
I love a good mystery,
Nothing like watching “Columbo”,
Peter Falk was one of a kind,
Playing the disheveled police lieutenant,
He always figured out who it was
Even though it was a perfect crime,
I love a good mystery,
Nothing like “Murder She Wrote”, 
Angela Lansbury was priceless as Jessica Fletcher,
The mystery writer who could solve any crime,
Better than the local sheriff could,
I love a good mystery,
Nothing like watching Dick Van Dyke as Dr. Mark Sloan
In “Diagnosis Murder”
He always helped his son Steve
Solve the murder cases,
And Amanda and Jesse always were his sidekicks,
I love a good mystery
Nothing like watching Robert Wagner and Stefanie Powers as
Jonathan and Jennifer Hart,
A wealthy couple who are always in the center
Of solving a murder mystery,
Many times in exotic places, and
Other times in Los Angeles where they live,
Their butler Max was always in the thick of helping them solve a case,
I love a good mystery,
Nothing like watching Tom Bosley and Tracy Nelson,
As Father Dowling and Sister Steve,
Getting in the middle of some risky situations,
In places you wouldn’t expect to see a priest or nun,
But their detective skills always help them to solve a case,
I love a good mystery,
Nothing like watching “Garage Sale Mystery” with Lori Loughlin, as Jennifer Shannon,
Her antique store and her garage sales lead her
To murder mysteries,
Danielle, her partner is her sidekick, always in the middle of helping
Jennifer solve a whodunit
I love a good mystery,
Nothing like Candace Cameron Bure as Aurora Teagarden,
The librarian who stumbles upon dead bodies,
And suspicions are cast on her Real Murder Club,
Somehow Aurora manages to solve the mystery,
I love a good mystery,
Nothing like watching Alison Sweeney,
In Murder She Baled with Cameron Mathison, as the police detective,
As she bakes up a lot of goodies for her bakery,
She seems to have a knack of stepping into a situation 
Where she finds a dead body and her quest for the truth leads her to solve the mystery,
I can go on and on with the many wonderful mysteries,
I watch all the time
On the Hallmark Mysteries and Movie Channel,
Oh, how I love a good mystery.
