I found a poem my little brother Scotty wrote when he was in grade school he called it "His Spring Poem"

Spring has sprung, don't step in thawing dung...it no longer freezes when I take a wiz....I wonder where the birdies is?....The End"

OH MY, just picture this little hunk of hulk writing such a touching poem - - OH MY. My screen is completely blurry. Oh how sweet and so touching - - - well, now that I think about it, I am not sure what might be safe to touch around him.................................

Morning all. I disinfected all around the counter area and pots - - think the heat should take care of the contents. Soooo, thank you Mr. Mod for our coffee this morning. Grabbing mine and off to the hospital to visit friend who fell and possibly broke hip or something down there. Then off to Costco and spend some money.
