Nursery Nonet

Mary, Mary so ordinary how is it you never do tell about the wonders in your garden of delight with bluebells and cockle shells that seem to glow with a crystal light? And, my dear friend Jack, at last you have told Mrs. Sprat enough lean now! You want a cheeseburger and a vanilla milkshake right away and you will not stand for another hungry day. ~~~~ (to be continued ... perhaps )

Sue what a excellent Double Nonet - i reckon I'm like Jack these days for I must stick to my diet - I need to lose about thirty pounds which will get me back down in 220 range - Thats my normal weight - Anyhow I have no idea why I went there but there must be a reason so I'll leave it here - God Bless, YF4L - MJ

You've got me smiling with you spin off familiar nursery rhymes. Got a good chuckle out of the second stanza. Thank you for sharing this day brightener with us and for your kind comments on my haiku. Keep up the good writing. My birthday is coming to you via Soup Mail. Have a good day! Karen
