A Boy Is…
Trust with dirt on its face,
Beauty with a cut on its finger,
Wisdom with bubble gum in its hair, and the
Hope of the future with
A frog in its pocket.

Little Boys’ Pockets
Little boys’ pockets hold
amazing things-
Fishworms, apple cores,
a mess of string,
But this treasure is nothing
to the wealth one finds
In little boys’ hearts and little
boys’ minds!!

Sugar Cookie Cowboy
by LaVerne P. Larson

My “sugar cookie cowboy”
Is a little lad of three
Who rides a bucking rocking horse
And means the world to me.

From morning until evening
He frolicks to and fro,
A merry twinkle in his eye
And rosy cheeks aglow.

His hair is always tousled,
And a smile lights up his face
While echoes of his laughter
Spread sunshine every place.

He wears a western outfit
And even totes a gun.
His world of make-believe
Is filled with happy, childlike fun.

Glad memories will linger,
As these precious years depart,
Of my “sugar cookie cowboy”
Who roped and stole my heart.

Poems from  Sweet Remberances.
He’s SIX today. Lost his first tooth,
 is learning to read, usually wears a cape.
He’s our amazing Wonder Boy, 
our one who “narrowly escaped”, 
or as the book
says, “the boy who lived”. He’s
the avenger, the crusader, the comedian, 
the freckle-face, the night snuggler
we find at our feet.  He’s got a story to tell
 but he might take a few detours
along the way. He’s the one who’ll be sitting 
looking out the window and out
of the blue will say, “Mom? I love you.”
We love you too Wheater-bug! Happy Birthday!
