Hi again friends,

Wrote a short "Fall" poem today. Or is it a "Schrade" poem?
A "Fall/Schrade Poem" That's it!
So here goes. Hope you enjoy!


"Schrades of Fall"

Shadows are longer,
Birds flown yonder,
Crisp nips the,
Morning air...,

Schrades in mixtures,
Pumpkin pictures,
I brought some over,
To share.

Attention!!! This post is a total waste of time!

Finally went over into the barn (it's attached to the house) and moved my wood pile from point "A" to point "B" this morning. Then..., I can get some more wood delivered to put on point "A" again.

The whole time I had, "How much wood could a Wood-Chuck chuck, If a Wood-Chuck could chuck wood?" , playing in my head. I must say, I'm a very good wood chucker! You show me any hole in the pile where you want me to chuck a piece of wood into & I'll chuck ya a piece of wood 25-feet across the barn that'll land right there where it wants to. Almost pretty close to the hole in the pile. And yes, if wood chucking was a professional sport, I could be a "Trucker" right now! Have to be careful not to get er "Jack-Knifed" in the barn.

My wife came over to call me for lunch. When she told me we were out of Pop-Tarts & that there is no such thing as provolone cheese in Germany I almost lost it completely. You know went bonkers, "Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" & stuff like that. I screamed "Don't Look Ethel!" But it was done too late. She'd done saw the whole big pile of knotty hardwood laying there. I had always imagined the phrase "Working Up A Sweat in the Barn" would be a pleasureable task unlike this. Made me wanna get my hatchet & chop some kindling. Then I remembered that I don't have a hatchet or a chopping block so..., being "up a creek" on this subject, I just let it go. No use in cryin over spilt milk I guess.

I could go on & on about this for hours but I'll be honest with ya friends..., It just doesn't makes no sense none! The whole problem is, that I've got more time on my hands than a 20 year old Timex. Of course I could say it's absolutely necessary information and that it has something to do with "Existentialism" but then that's a whole nother story so I won't even go there.

So if you were wondering, yes, this is based on a true story. Had to get the dead horse in here somewhere.

If you made it this far, you must have even more time on your hands than I do. LOL!
Me & my Buddy Jake!

Thanks for the excellent and entertaining post! You are a talented individual, Tom, and I am not speaking of wood chucking talent.

I made it all the way through, Tom. Yeah...I have lots of time. Great story...GREAT pics.

Thanks LJ! Having time is a good thing. Not doing time, having time.

This poem goes along with a picture Wade posted over in the "Pet's" thread but I wanted to have it here in the "Poem's" thread as well just to keep my poems together in one place.

The picture I wrote it about is here.: viewtopic.php?f=21&t=21694&start=1770



"Wade's Barn"

I Lo;o;o;o;ove my oats! Stuttered the goat.
Finger Licken! Clucked the chicken.
I like this honky! Brayed the donkey.
Life's a Charm! In Wade's Barn.

Gretchen (the goat), Henrietta (the hen), Annie (the donkey), and I all like the poem! Here’s the picture in question and a couple of other barn shots!

Nice photos, Wade. Entertaining writing, as usual, Tom!
