WHILE I WAS ON THE TREADMILL GOING FOR A JOG
I THOUGHT OF A DIFFERENT AND CREATIVE TOPIC FOR TODAY’S BLOG
IN CELEBRATION OF A SPECIAL EVENT THAT IS A FEW DAYS AWAY
I THOUGHT WE WOULD WRITE A POEM TOGETHER FOR VALENTINE’S DAY
IT WOULD BE GREAT IF READERS WILL ADD
THEIR THOUGHTS AND WORDS–IF NOT I MIGHT BE SAD
SO THE RULES ARE EASY, JUST ADD A FEW LINES OR FOUR
AND THE NEXT PERSON WILL BUILD AND ADD MORE
SO NOW IT IS YOUR TURN TO TRY
PLEASE , PLEASE PLEASE DON’T BE SHY
WHO WANTS TO START US ON OUR WAY
THAT’S ALL FOR NOW I HAVE NOTHING MORE TO SAY . . .
fsumm says:
A few words now to test the waters
To my wife and to my daughters
Don’t matter if it’s rain or shine
As long as you’re my Valentine!
Merrill Dubrow says:
Frank I am sure your family will have fun
This weekend now that Dallas has some sun
Enjoy tomorrow with them and have a great time
So glad I was able to find a few words to rhyme!
Rachel Campbell says:
Get ready now to share the love
With all the white stuff from above
And what an amazing mood improver
The Winter Olympics begin in Vancouver!
Merrill Dubrow says:
Rachel – I hope you enjoyed opening night
And you thought the ceremony was out of sight!
Athletes competing from all over the place
And trying to win a race!
Fee Sepahi says:
Fathers and daughters
Hearts entwined.
Bonded by the flow of red
The flow of life!
Merrill Dubrow says:
Fee – have a great time with your family
It seems like you are very close
And all move as one
Which is an amazing feeling to have!
Fee Sepahi says:
Thank you, Merrill. Hope you enjoy this special day with all those special people, who love you.

Tom McGoldrick says:
Snow falling back East
Has made cold calling a beast
Everyone’s at home enjoying a feast
Will we see a baby boom at least?
Merrill Dubrow says:
Tom that is very funny
And will probably happen until it is sunny!
I hope you have a great day
I am going to a game played in the NBA
Melanie says:
Snow also falling down in the South
Trying to catch flakes in my mouth
What a treat and change of pace
Signing off to join the snowman race
Merrill Dubrow says:
Melanie – The snow is falling all over the place
And I was at the airport and so many unhappy a face
Flights were delayed and they couldn’t get home
So people were in the airport and all they would do is roam!
Michael Halberstam says:
Pitchers and catchers – reporting day will soon be here
Just after Valentine’s Day is when I’ll cheer.
Yankees beating Red Sox, bringing tears to Merrill
Laker’s beating Celtics, Boston in peril
Ah, Valentine’s Day so special that my in-laws are here to see us
So special indeed I’ve decided to get my wife a Prius!
Merrill Dubrow says:
Michael – your poem is very cute and made me smile
We will have to wait for awhile
To see if your thoughts and predictions are right
I hope you are wrong although it will be tight
My teams will come out on top in the end
Regardless I am so happy to call you my friend!
Bob Graham says:
Michael, Michael Yankee fan,
Does not know how a line to scan
Knowledgeable of ‘Rod and Jeter
But not about poetic meter
Series titles can be snatched
Don’t count your chickens ’til they’re hatched!
For you had thought you closed the door,
But choked big time in 2004.
Lynn Stalone says:
One for my daughter:
Once a little girl
Is now a woman who finds
Her own guiding light
Michael Halberstam says:
Bob and Merrill, Merrill and Bob
The 2004 Sox did indeed do a good job
But 2010 promises to bring
My boy Derek another ring
Counting chickens before thay are hatched is always fun
Especially for Yankee and Laker’s fans as we’re on a run
The Celtics are old, The Laker’s are young
I thought I saw Garnet coughing up a lung
Lynn Stalone says:
Michael, you are too funny!
Yankees are a bore,
And Boston I abhore.
Watch the Angels to swing,
And cost Jeter that ring.
Though I have to agree,
That the Lakers kick B.
Merrill Dubrow says:
Michael – hysterical!
Michael I understand what you are saying
But I keep praying
That my Sox will end up on top
And wipe up the Yanks with a Mop
I love the moves they made especially Lackey
And the new news headline will be Spectacy!
At least I laughed!
Merrill
