Gift From Joey
Joey pondered and pondered way to hard;

What the day meant and the father's birthday card.

Try as he might he couldn't let it be.

"Mom gave Dad a card and said it was from me."

Pondering still while he played with his truck.

An idea stuck him, he guessed it was luck.

He could give a gift and not go far.

Only to the tree in back of his yard.

There by the pond, under the old log

Is his one of a kind favorite frog.

Sneaking it in while watching the door;

"So, Shhh! Don't tell Dad. Its in the desk drawer." -- Aine 2004
