WHILE I’M AWAY
While I’m away,
Though I’m not your pappy,
I pray you’ll stay
Healthy and happy! 😊

THE OLD FLY SWATTER
THE OLD FLY SWATTER
Granny rocked on the porch
With her old fly swatter,
And she did something bad,
She really hadn’t ought-er!
A fly had landed on Pappy’s head,
And when she spied where it was at,
Granny flicked the fly swatter
With a mighty KER-SPLATT!
Old Pappy jumped up and said,
“Why’d you hit me on my head?”
“You disturbed my nap
And that poor creature is dead!”
“Old man,” Granny said,
“Beware, this is true,”
“I wasn’t aiming at the fly,
I aimed to hit you!” 😊
OLE’ PAPPY AND HIS SNAPPY
OLE’ PAPPY AND HIS SNAPPY
Ole’ Pappy lost his snappy,
He was as tired as a dog,
He took a long, long nappy,
And slept like a log,
Then, he saw a lovely lady,
She gave him a sweet smile!
Then, Ole’ Pappy thought maybe
He could run for miles and miles!
Yes, Pappy regained his snappy,
And got pep back in his step,
He felt as handsome and happy
As a youthful Johnny Depp!
The lesson, albeit sappy:
Please think a little while,
One day, you may be like Pappy,
And simply need a sweet smile! 😊
