Another Time that Won't Slide By

    A Day to Remember 

        Day I don't forget 

It was my wedding day 

Started the joyful day 

She was at the church dressed 

Relax, she was trying 

Her groom hadn't arrived 

At the groom's house ready 

Sent his son, load for car 

But son came running back 

"Dad, can't get in the car!"

"Oh let me do that then

Oops these keys are not right  

They're on the other ring 

The ring for the small car" 

"Grandpa took it ahead"

We called Grandpa to come 

Meanwhile bride was nervous 

Some guests already there 

Worse yet Grandpa got lost 

In half hour he came 

Grabbed keys, headed for church 

Son then came with Granpa 

Making sure lost no more 

Surprise when I made church 

My bride was crying hard 

Guests out for a burger 

Grandpa came  all were back 

Bride was trying to smile 

The rest went well, wedded 

Haven't made my wife cry 

In our fifty-one years 

Never will I forget

Slice of Life to Remember

   A Slice of Life;

     not forgotten 

School day to remember 

I  remember it well 

Into the storm celler 

She led me down the steps 

Little girl little boy 

Innocent boy enticed 

Stopped there on the steps 

There she popped a question 

A question new to me 

You show me yours and then 

Then I will show you mine 

Quickly she pulled our pants 

She knew what to look for 

Looked up and down, around 

I, disappointed blushed 

She'd naught for me to see  

 . . . 

(Note:  This is a true event, we were 

at school having a first grade recess. )
