Ilene Bauer Poet Rhyme

Sticking It

The fridge is full of magnets
From the travels we have made,
Small tokens to remember 
All the cities where we've stayed.

It's nice to add a new one 
So as soon as I've unpacked,
I squeeze it next to others
Where it's certain to attract.

I sometimes wonder, though, if time
Will be a foe or friend.
Will my fridge run out of room before 
My travel days do end?

Darlene De Beaulieu January 2, 2019 at 4:36 PM Hello Ileen, I use to have magnets on my fridge.They had words of wisdom on some and just scenery. Have a nice evening my friend.

Rico Leffanta December 22, 2018 at 8:18 PM I have seen that on TV, but wonder how those magnets affect the fridge and the electronics (iPhones, wristwatch, etc.) people carry to the fridge? As you live in the USA, no need to worry as fridges die immediately following the expiration of the warranty. Fun read! Aloha! Rico
