Twenty Six

Just like the cat in the hat,
I have twenty six plans when I go out to bat,
Now what do you think of that.

You can keep all your heavy readings,
It was my childhood dreaming's,
And an adult's simple musing's
That gave me twenty six understanding's
For twenty six different solutions
To life's many complications.

If I should get more than twenty six,
I still won't be in a fix,
A friend brought into the mix ,
Will give me another twenty six.

Glad you liked it. I have the gift to make others smile so would be a sin not to use it. There too many who have not opened their gifts yet and some may leave it too late. Glad you keep opening yours for the benefit of us all. God bless.
