Let Your Glim So Shine!

The word is glim (a light, lamp) It's hard to sing a hymn with vim When your weak glim is too dim Even if you're a plump cherubim Perched on a tree limb with Jim. Grandpa Jensen

Hot Rolls

Try this word. Bap (a small bun, or roll)

If a sizzling hot bap
Lands in your lap,
Don't scream old chap.
Just tip your cap
And give it a tap.
Then go take a nap.

Turkeys can do genealogy?

Good Sabbath: A new word is Nixie (a female water sprite) There once was a turkey named Tom Who went to Ancestry.com. He found a Nixie in his line Who was an ancestor of mine, She was his mom's mom's mom.

A Huge Woman

Try this word. Zingy (enjoyably exciting)

I wonder if I shall ever see
A huge woman in the sea
Holding a torch thingy
That would be zingy,
She's the Statue of Liberty.

Oh Rubbish!

The word is dreck (rubbish)

I'm always a nervous wreck
When I find lots of dreck
On my redwood deck.
It's a pain in the neck,
Oh well, what the heck!

Grandpa Jensen

Hulla Baloo

The word today is hullabaloo (an uproar , or fuss)

If you sneak up behind a gnu
At the new Sacramento zoo
And scream boo!
He will charge you
Causing a hullabaloo
And you'll be scared too!

Bonjour!

Le mot (French for the word) of the day is zerk (a grease fitting) A young French soda jerk Wore a smile and a smirk As he greased a zerk In his prized pink '55 Merc. The engine began to perk, But then it went berserk. Alas, it just didn't work.
