Trash Talk
By Larry Chadwick
  


Just like her dad she didn’t like cabbage,
She was smart enough to know it belonged in the “grabage”.
Her big brother loved to empty the trash can,
At five his goal was to grow up a trash man.

There is no point except my promise to keep,
Thought I should do it before I’m off to sleep.
I know it is junk and will win me no cash,
Just like I said I’m gonna write trash.

September 6, 2005




If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

Excellent Larry!
Thanks for this evening's smile-maker.

Something tugs at me, I've no doubt of that.
Something from the sea, whichever one I'm near.
When I stray too far from beachland, it calls me back

Now if only my "trash" was as good as this!
Yours is the sort of junk I'd like to have in my poetic trunk!

Giving you a big, warm hug ~ and an even bigger smile! Smile

Hugs with love,
Linda

one man's trash could be wealth beyond compare, depending on the culture of content...

Love this and you for sharing so much goodness with us.

Hugs
