On Mothers Wall
The picture that hung on mothers wall
Held a lesson for us all.
A fat boy in bib overalls
Was gripping the handle of a shovel tall.
A red bandana was wiping his brow.
Digging fish worms is work any how.
Behind him a red tomato can,
It held the worms for fishing plans.
His pet white geese came along that day.
Finding the can of worms they planned to stay.
.
One had a worm in its beak.
Another was deciding which worm to eat.
A third goose was waiting in line
Knowing this day is going fine.
Mother used to say
Sometimes life goes that way.
