Please excuse Reenie
From class yesterday
She had much work to do
Planting, digging,
Weeding, de-rocking,
Dive-bombing-robin-avoiding
She only took
A teensy lunch break
And Sgt. Elys
Slapped her hand
Mission continued
Mission accomplished
"Dismissed!"
Regards,
Lt.Col Go-go Orange
Head Begonia
USFC
An "excuse" of a poem?
Loved it.....in particular the line - Dive-bombing-robin avoiding.
What are your robins made of in the USA? I've asked this before but no one told me. Ours work alone, are tiny and cheeky and very lovable - they come up and watch you digging and then give you a song, and take a worm as payment. I love Robins (if my last baby had been a boy he was going to be called Robin (I bet Laura is awfully glad she turned out to be a girl)
Reply:Dear Lt. Or should I say Colonel? Or maybe Lt Colonel?
Missing in action is entirely different than dereliction of duties. A flowering flower needs much attention and to go dry for a day is unacceptable and does not fit any standards of conduct either in the gardern or at Dairy Queen. Do I make myself clear? DQ'd that excuse. Write on.
Reply:Splenderific!!!!! This one really sits high on my list!!! As a fellow gardener and an Army Vet I really got into this one. You have taken two polar opposites, gardening and the military and written quite a ditty about the two. Not too many people can do that successfully!!! This one truly shines!!! Your talent amazes me!!! Of course, I already know, it runs in the family (Oh, I know splenderfic is not a word, I cannot write poems so I made up a word instead!!!!)
Reply:Well, you're always excused in my books, but next time we have a crazy poetic form jam party you shall have to come. Get a weekend pass from Sgt. Elys if you must, for the party won't be complete without you. At Ease, Poet.
Reply:are you sure Reenie didn't mistake red-wing blackbirds for robins coming off that flight deck?
Grey Lady sends Birds
Aloft to bomb the gardener
Mission postponed.
Reply:Madam! I slapped your hand because you were eating the LAST bite of a whole Sarah Lee Cherry Cheesecake!!!
THAT'S what gave you the energy(and calories) to finish your mission. In-damn-deed!!! Ten-hut!!!!
Reply:Reenie is hereby excused.
