Everything Just So

   Green grass, cut once or twice weekly
      A CEO might shave twice a day

   Edges and hedges trimmed nicely too
      Manicure, pedicure in seven days due 

   Rolling lawns with everything just so
      Like the ascot of the CEO

   If underneath lurks mud, ooze and slime ~
      Grounds for the perps to do time

Hi GW, it's been a while, glad for this snappy nugget of wisdom, makes me think it's time to mow that lawn :)

Yes looks can be deceiving! Everything that looks good is not necessarily good! Great job!

They do say: 'Never judge a book by its cover.' --- Though we all do anyway, eh?... Thanks, Karen.
