Notes About The Poem

My granddaughter gave me a stuffed llama, a reminder of bygone days. Love it!

Present From My Past

The llama perched on the podium speaks volumes to me. The huge mouth searched my coat pocket — I snickered as he snatched my snack. A model citizen, its quiet hum connects me to the past. 7/30/2019

This is cute. When I was a kid I had a rubber monkey. I named him King Bongo. He was King of all the toys.
