Lost in the Mail?
Still No Pictures!
Still no pictures?
Boo Hoo Boo Hoo
Hopefully someday
They'll find their way
To you;
Or maybe they'll
Come back to me,
The goof I made
For me to see.
A big brown envelope
Couldn't get lost...
Misplaced maybe,
Oh what a cost.
Keep on looking,
Searching and seeking,
The pictures will appear
I'm thinking!!
Mom got a real kick out of my little rhyme and a good laugh helps calm many anxieties. Seems poetry is a good form of communication in many situations.
The envelope did eventually arrive, postage due!! Oops, my bad!! What did I learn from this experience? When sending precious family photographs to a loved one it's best to take the envelope to the post office and have it weighed to insure proper postage is affixed. Enough said.
Happy mailing folks!!

Post a CommentThis reminds me that I have to add more postage since the rates went up! Wonderful picture and article! You sure favor your mother. :-)
Cool kid!!! I didn't know that I was apart of your poem. Keep up the good work.
Glad you saw the humor in this and shared it with us so honestly. Love the photo!
This was very entertaining!.....................................and thanks for your nice comment on my poem
great read!
Great piece here, nicely done!!!!!!!!!!!
They did, with postage due. Mom has them safe and sound.
Excellent piece, and beautiful picture too. Thanks for sharing this. I don't trust snail mail at all. I had a car payment not reach its destination and a couple of other pieces of mail since moving to my apartment. Who knows where they ended up, and it wasn't a case of not having enough postage. I use it as little as possible. Too bad about your pictures. I hope they eventually turn up!
I'm glad the pictures finally arrived :)
Great piece!
