Debra Squyres Poet Free verse

Lekker Thoughts

Lekker Thoughts

To live a lekker life
One must set aside
Discord and strife

To have a lekker day
One should be ready
To learn how to play

A lekker attitude
Will bid you well
Dished with gratitude

A woodpecker Is not lekker
When boring holes at dawn


Have a LEKKER day !!
