Janice Canerdy Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Placed 2nd in Eve Roper's Nursery Rhyme Contest, August 27, 2024

     *****************************************************************

It Is a Lovely Day

Today Lil wears a flowered dress,	
a big straw hat, and comfy shoes
while watering Mom’s many blooms
the big and small, the pinks and blues.

Her golden dog and tabby cat
relax and calmly watch their friend.
What could be better for a girl
than having flowers to attend?

The front yard is a wonderland
with things for little girls to do 
and loving pets that wait nearby.
Life bears a happy, rosy hue.
