That brought to my attention that my kid's a poetry hogger.
As she sits with me now, my Jordie Pie Poo,
I listen to her giggle and then she says cachoo.
I've listened to her poems as she's read them to me,
And now she waits for Mommy's, patiently.
I don't know how to do it,
She tells me to just stick to it.
Mommy's not a poet, like we all know it,
But I can bake a cake down by the lake.
And I can make a bag out of a rag.
And I can make her a snack to eat out back.
But my Jordie is so smart,
Lots smarter than me.
She has a sweet sweet heart,
Alot like the honey bees.
My Jordie is so happy,
Cause the others are all gone.
Her brothers are not here.
And her sister is in the pond.
So here we sit together,
Like we never get to do.
Cause soon they will come back,
And bug us like they do.

April is National Poetry Month
Read this selection made by Jordan herself,
She loves Jack Prelutsky's Bleezer's Ice Cream.
She says that her favorite flavor has to be
ALMOND HAM MERINGUE SALAMI.
"Hat tip to Blest With Sons"...Thanks!

Alright now! Where's my hat tip?? Of course, it may now have been me...
What's a hat tip? Oh - that's where if you get an idea or inspiration or whatever from another blogger, you put a little note in your post that says "Hat tip to _______" and link to that blogger. Or you could just put the link on the word "blogger" in the first line of your poem. That way people could click on that word if they so choose and see where you got your idea. (grin)
All of that said - This post is adorable and so is Jordie!!
I have something to tell you...it sounds really bad...I think you better leave the poetry to Jordie and you stick to the bags.....MOMO
