Brilliant Benjamin Franklin
Lit the skies with his lightning rod kite
Self-perceived ladies' man usually got his way
But at least our US national bird is not the turkey!...

Not In the Bible, Though -
God helps those who help themselves
Hidden here a kernel of truth: "no free lunch!"
But if I seek a shelter in real or fancied homelessness
"A stitch in time saves nine," - not my bikini (thanx a bunch)...

An Eyebrow-Raising Key To Electricity
Benjamin Franklin, to prove lightning held electricity,
Flew a kite in a storm; attached to the kite cord was a key.
Though some thought this dangerous experiment was a bit odd,
Franklin sparked more inquiries and invented the lightning rod!

Ounce of Prevention
Does wearing a mask make you ill?
Are you a social distancing hater?
Then imagine how you'd feel
Being put on a ventilator

THANKFUL FOR THE ABILITY TO READ AND WRITE
Today I’m thankful for my ability to read…and write…
with the hope that in my life…these two keep reuniting…
That I have been able to write something worth reading…
or to have done something worth writing
And my thanks to Benjamin Franklin whose writings I have read…
And to his particular quote…that put this thought inside my head....

Benjamin Franklin Puppet
A Benjamin Franklin puppet walked into our living room.
He wanted to use our computer, in particular, needed to zoom.
I said to my husband “what do you think?”
“I believe he is lost,” he said. This is not a skating rink.
Because Benjamin Franklin Puppet had put on some skates.
He was zipping and slipping around our hoes and garden rakes.
But why are they in your living room? A snoopy neighbor said.
This is not easily answered, so I went back to my bed....
