In a Lighter Vein Brother, too big for his britches, Said he wasn't scared of witches; Of ghosts and goblins had no fear And dared a demon to come near. The morning after Halloween He was just nowhere to be seen. We looked for him in woods and ditches In cubbyholes and hidden niches. My mama couldn't find her broom, We searched for it in every room. I shouldn't laugh 'til I'm in stitches, At Brother carried off by witches. By: Joyce 10/22/07 |

I really enjoyed that. It's got a nifty little rhythm to it that makes it a fun read. |

sister beware! i wonder why sisters get such glee from poor lost brothers like him and me... subjected to the curse of witchery! i believe all sisters are she-devils! they are, all, one of a kind. brusing their, refine brother's, tormented minds. but, always remember... tomorrow is a new day! brother will return and have his way! |

Dear Joyce: Cute poem and I'm sure there are many little sisters, who wish this could happen to their brothers! Love Betty Lou Betty Lou Hebert |
