Patti Masterman Poem
The Lilies sent a message to the Lilacs:
There is not enough light at noon
Around these parts; what shall we do
Replied the Lilac, bloom
Bloom: where you are planted.
The Honeysuckle sent a note-
They are of course quite shy-
To the Climbing roses; whereof to spread
The Climbers replied, go high-
Higher: climb toward the light.
The Marigolds were wont to root
Beside the road, so dreary
Of the Baby's breath, they then inquired
How do you stay so cheery?
They whispered: just keep a young heart.
A Weed approached a Blue eyed stranger
Reposing alone, in thought
'I've no name either; now there's two of us,
you see' he said, conversationally
Replied the Blue one: Forget-me-not.

Patti Masterman Poem
A Nony Mouse I be
My tail is most of me
I run about the house, I creep
I only come out when others sleep
I'll only ask a crumb of you
And disappear at the slightest MEW
That's one sound I truly rue
Cheese the thing that I love best
That, and babies in the nest
I have a lot to do it's true
So, pleased to meet you, and adieu.
