Making New - an Acrostic Poem for Friday Writings

HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!

Reclaim, Rekindle, and Rebirth 

Relax yourself--claim again 

empty heads will not count 

clip from your paper 

lots of paper dolls you can make 

almost a dozen from only one page 

in paper doll contests you might win 

make them slim, make them pretty,

 

Remember childhood days 

empty bellies do not count 

kindergarten days rekindled 

invest in rounded point scissor cutters 

no one cares if you act senile today 

don't you know its New Year's Day 

let them laugh the laughs on them

early childhood memories coming forth, 

another plight you'll buy

nothing counts from them 

dare acting senile today

Reserve the time wisely 

emptied hearts try to count 

better filled with childhood dreams paper dolls 

ignore the hoots they don't know 

right from left hasn't registered 

tonight new birth you will have   

hoot and holler and scream like the kid you be

.

Me and my Mustang; we went for a ride last night before church. There isn't anything very exciting in Cut And Shoot, mainly I just wanted to you to know it's there.

.

Cut And Shoot is located east of Conroe, Texas, about 40 miles north of Houston. It stretches as a wide place in the road for approximately six miles with car lots, car repair places, gas stations, resale places and a few others

.

There isn't even a good restaurant out there! The most exciting place is the (motorcycle) chopper place. I haven't visited there.

.

I had promised readers that I would put some Cut and Shoot city pictures on today, so here goes.

Very obvious, this is the nice volunteer fire station.

I stayed on Texas Highway 105 but I was able to get all the public buildings.

.

There are little hills and acreages north, back behind these buildings. My friend lives on about eight acres, he even has a small saw mill. .

The post office is fast. I mailed a Christmas card here one evening and the day after it was in my sister's mail box in Iowa. It's quaint inside too, with all those glass windowed brass mail boxes.

None of the businesses are in skyscraper buildings here!

I didn't go over to Grangerland (Texas). Instead I hurried those two miles on to Conroe, they were having fried catfish and hush puppies for supper at the First Baptist Church.

Grangerland is located south of Conroe, Texas, down the road about ten miles. It has a school and more small businesses, nothing very new there either.

.

Read about these towns the Handbook of Texas (link to Cut And Shoot article), the city's (C&S) Web page (link), or on the Wikipedia article (link) or Google it yourself from "Results 1 - 10 of about 1,960,000 for cut and shoot, texas. (0.13 seconds)."

The Cut-N-Shoot H.O.G. Chapter #5013 (link) is one of the largest in the nation. They do a lot of charitable work, like Christmas Toys For Kids runs, food drives, etc.

If I had a Harley Hog I would ride with them, that's for sure.
