April Rain


The wild sweet rain of April spills
On golden - throated daffodils,
On garden wall and new green bough,
On earth fresh - turned before the plough.
It scrubs the pansy's small shy face
And shines each blade of grass in place
To leave the springtime world aglow,
And lift my heart to walk tiptoe.

Okey-dokey! American Idol

American Idol is my 13 yr old's show to watch, not mine.
Being an endless fan of corny jokes, puns, etc... , I do have a fave this season:

DANNY GOKEY..............

If you've been watching, you may like this young man, too.
Let me tell you a few interesting details about him:
Do you know Danny's favorite dance?
-The HOKEY-POKEY, of course!
Did you know he has a twin sister?
-She is an agreeable sort, her name is ' Okey-dokey Gokey'.
Danny has another famous relative -
-His name is 'Smokey Dokey' , not 'Smokey the Bear' as you may have heard so many times.
So, stop groaning,
and let me know if you know any more 'facts' (or bad puns) to contribute. :).
Keep 'em clean, though.
