We now start another new year,
52 Weeks to bug Balladeer!
Nan with her scissors to cut up my stuff,
Watchin you artists write poems and such.

Santa's getting his unemployment,
Works one day a year, (he'a a lazy old gent)
He wears strange clothing, he's ugly and fat,
(No, not Balladeer...he ain't got a red hat)

May the New Year bring, each one of you,
Blessings and health and prosperity too.
I'll visit here often, I hope it's quite soon,
How about Tuesday?..Say, somewhere 'round noon?

Sounds good to me, Toe... but do we have to wait that long? LOL. I'll bet Balladeer will be delighted to find that Santa had one more treat in his sack... a simple statement that "Toerag's back!" *G* (I know I am! *G*)

I hope the scissors rust from lack of use, dear Toe... you may not consider yourself one of the artists... but your work is delightful! *G*

Glad to see you back Toe!

 In the dew of little things,
the heart finds its morning
and is refreshed.

Toe,
Bless you and your sense of humor
Why don't you start a new rumor.
Perhaps a new little steer,
With your friend Balladeer?
Liked your poem, like you. Sy

Oh my deer, what shall we do?
Balladeer and a camera too?
Photography is where it's at?
Oh my Lord! Where is my hat?

Do you think he will be coming your way for lessons Toe? I think I shall be very afraid of the results..lol.

Tuesday at noon...hmmm I am not free then but I hope you have a wonderful date with the other poets.

We can officially say the Y2K bug did NOT eat Toerag! Whew! I was worried that Balladeer didn't exterminate that bug in time to save us!

Welcome home sir...it's nice to have you back. Now, we can move into this millennium, family intact!

Under every saddle there's a burr.
Under every bonnet there's a bee.
In every ointment there's a fly
And Toe reciting poetry.

Every barrel has a rotten apple
And a blackbird in every pie
And Toe keeps trying to make a rhyme
But please don't ask me why.

So to the woodshed once again
I'll have to march that boy.
With Toe around, I know I'll have
A New Year filled with joy!
