Mom, Inspired...

My mom, the poet, felt inspired by the Bags In Trees blog, and wrote a little poem about it... here it is for your enjoyment!

There are Bags in them there Trees

You have to watch those sneaky trees:
The Poplars’ and the Cherry.
And if you have a Cottonwood,
My advice to you, be wary.

Those Walnuts are a stubborn lot-
A dangerous kind of foe.
So if you’ve lost a bag to them
You’d better let it go.

Though the Birch and Hickory
Really can’t be trusted,
There’s real danger with Buckeye Trees-
They’re socially Maladjusted.

So hold on to you valuables
When you’re off the beaten track.
Deciduous trees are mentally ill:
They’re kleptomaniacs.
