I'm A Child of Scissors-Tell Me About Your Hobby
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I gather up pictures and bits of my past
and scrapbook them into an album that will last.
How dear to my heart are the photographs therein pasted;
the hours I spent thus were surely not wasted.
Their pleasures were many and no sorrow they knew,
as fond recollections I now have them to view.
I’m a child of scissors and a gummy paste pot;
this album is the offspring of my patience, pleasure begot.
I write about milestones and travels and such
the times of my life that I treasure so much.
A few special photos, a family tree
with a few thoughtful words and journaling, soon I will see…
This album I’ve made is much more than a book;
it’s worth even more than the time that it took.
It’s a book holding treasured memories made with great care
by a heart and hands with embellishments, a legacy to share.
