W is for Winsome

Three winsome Grandlittles,
Sitting on a wall...


the little one said,
"I hope that I don't fall.."


The middle one said,
"It's St. Patricks Day!"


The biggest one said,
"Who cares? Let's just play!"


The Grandmother said,
"Don't you move an inch,
'cuz if you're not wearing green,
I will give you all a pinch!"

The three little girls said,
"Hip-hip-hooray!
Here is our green...
and we're off now to play!"


This wonderfully winsome rhyme is linked to Alphabe-Thursday's letter "W".

    I'm always wearing green, because I have green eyes. Didn't keep the boys from pinching me though! :(

    LOL, love it, Jenny! :-)

    I actually pinched the hostess and the waiter at a restaurant today. It was fun! I didn't pinch hard... some people pinch like crabs... and we got a chuckle.

    I'm here to wish you a very Happy St. Patrick's Day! I took the day off to blog, and while I was looking out my window, our town's own version of a leprechaun (my neighbor) came out dressed as one. I grabbed my camera, and he's on my blog header. LOL! And his name? Why, it's Flynn, of course. A good Irish name for a leprechaun.

    Happy St. Patrick's Day to you, my friend! :-)

    XO,

    Sheila... who hopes to be back in the not too distant future (as soon as I can get the workmen out of my hair... there are painters and gutter cleaners and yardmen now. At least the tree men are gone bye0bye!)

    I have to give the teacher a A+ for originality. Winsome is not a word I have heard since my own school days.

    Lovely granddaughters. Makes me a tad envious.
    Your having all those young girls to enjoy. My only grandson is fourteen and just hit the six foot mark with a size fifteen shoe. So his days of being interested in sharing time with his old Granny are rapidly slipping away in favor of more testosterone filled pursuits.
