THINK GREEN THURSDAY

THE GREEN GLOVES
They pass so quickly, these lovely days
Between babyhood and childhood.
When communication consists of
A smile,
A roguish look,
A laugh,
A cuddle.
When a mower is a 'mowoh'
And a whipper-snipper
Is a circular motion of the hands!
When triumph is expressed by raising
The Green Gloves.
And a comical thumbs-up!
And a comical thumbs-up!
The obsession with garden-tools will pass.
But, with it, will pass
Those lovely days.
