A Crow named Jerry
Jerry was our pet crow.
Actually, there were two of them, Tom and
Jerry. My brothers had found them pitifully peeping after their nest
was knocked from tree. (They never admitted to deliberately knocking
it from the tree, but...) They brought them home to mom to see if
they
could be returned to their mommy crow.

The scene is a garden, lush and damp. A mist floats up from the
ground. The sound of birds is heard......

Senior Citizens
Senior citizens are constantly being criticized for every conceivable
deficiency of the modern world, real or imaginary. We know we take
responsibility for all we have done and do not blame others.
HOWEVER, upon reflection, we would like to point
out that it was NOT the senior citizens who took:
The melody out of music,
The pride out of appearance,
The courtesy out of driving,
The romance out of love,
The commitment out of marriage,
The responsibility out of parenthood,
The togetherness out of the family,
The learning out of education,
The service out of patriotism,
The Golden Rule from rulers,
The nativity scene out of cities,
The civility out of behavior,
The refinement out of
language,
The dedication out of employment,
The prudence out of spending,
The ambition out of achievement, or,
God out of government and school.
And we certainly are NOT the ones who eliminated patience
and tolerance from personal relationships and
interactions with others!!
And, we do understand the meaning of patriotism, and remember those who
have fought and died for our country.
Does anyone under the age of 50 know the lyrics
to the Star Spangled Banner?
What about the last verse of My Country 'tis of Thee?
"Our father's God to thee,
Author of liberty,
To Thee we sing.
Long may our land be bright,
With freedom's Holy light.
Protect us by Thy might,
Great God our King."
Just look at the Seniors with tears in their eyes and pride
in their hearts as they stand at attention with
their hand over their hearts!
YES, I'M A SENIOR CITIZEN!
I'm the life of the party......even if it
lasts until 8 p.m.
I'm very good at opening childproof caps...
with a hammer.
I'm usually interested in going home before I get
to where I am going.
I'm awake many hours before my body allows me to
get up.
I'm smiling all the time because I can't hear a
thing you're saying.
I'm very good at telling stories; over and over
and over and over...
I'm aware that other people's grandchildren are
not nearly as cute as mine.
I'm so cared for -- long term care, eye care,
private care, dental care.
I'm not really grouchy, I just don't like
traffic, waiting, crowds,
lawyers, loud music, unruly
kids, Toyota commercials, Tom Brokaw, Dan
Rather, barking dogs, politicians and a few other things I can't seem to
remember right now.
I'm sure everything I can't find is in a safe
secure place, somewhere.
I'm wrinkled, saggy, lumpy, and that's just my
left leg.
I'm having trouble remembering simple words
like.......
I'm beginning to realizing that aging is not for
wimps.
I'm sure they are making adults much younger
these days, and when did they let kids become
policemen?
I'm wondering, if you're only as old as you feel,
how could I be alive at 150?
And, how can my kids be older
than I feel
sometimes?
I'm a walking storeroom of facts.... I've just
lost the key to the storeroom door.
Yes, I'm a SENIOR CITIZEN and I think I am having
the time of my life!
