This book is dedicated to my lovely wife Courtney and my two beautiful daughters Carly and Cassidy. They inspire me to be the best husband and father that I can be. I wake-up each morning and thank God for blessing me with three awesome ladies.

Feet
Feet can be really big
Or feet can be real small
Some feet are shorter than short
And some are taller than tall
Feet come in different sizes
And different colors too
Feet can take you to the park
Or take you to the zoo
Some feet smell like roses
While some feet smell real funky
You can find feet on a dog
And even on a monkey
Feet can march and stomp real loudly
Or lightly feet can tread
But at the end of the day what feet do best
Is take you to your bed
The Zany School Bus
There are patches of yellow, blue and green
On the school bus that I ride in
The seats are fuzzy, soft and clean
In the school bus that I ride in
The inside sparkles like silver and gold
On the school bus that I ride in
The bus itself is really old
The school bus that I ride in
My friends ride too and we sing songs
On the school bus that I ride in
The horn doesn’t honk but instead ding-dongs
On the school bus that I ride in
The air smells of grape, chocolate and strudel
On the school bus that I ride in
The bus we’ve named Fanny Boodoodle
She’s the school bus that I ride in
My trip is over I’ve arrived safely home
In the school bus that I ride in
Then she winks at me and says in a Joyful tone,
“I’m glad I’m the school bus that you ride in.”
The Green Tree Sea
The trunks of the trees
Bend like knees
The bushy, bushy leaves
Appear to heave and heave
They bend and they sway
Throughout the day
From side to side
They sway with pride
