My Parents Favorite Motto

First hear it from my Mom and Dad, at first I thought the idea absurd, but then I thought what the heck, so I went outside to look around and check, Investigating every single inch of property, some squirrels running by my young feet, with my happiness being short lived, when I noticed no money growing on our trees. 1-16-17

My knees reach past my knuckles//my fruit trees all grow chuckles//I make wine//all the time//from bells and bills and buckles. Whew! Don't have a clue where that came from, but I'm sure glad I finally got to be silly on your poem page again! Huggaluggamoochkanoodles! ~ john

Very witty and funny, of course, Cheryl. A nice delightful take on an old, imaginatively wise poem. Love and peace to you.
