Glitter and Glue (Tune: Twinkle, Twinkle)

by Cherry Carl

I tried to make a card for you,

but it’s a gloppy mess of glitter and glue!

I hoped that you would be so glad,

but my hopes just went from glad to bad.

Maybe I should wear a glove

when I make a card that’s filled with love!

A Glacial Glass (Tune: Yankee Doodle)

by Cherry Carl Artwork: www.toonclipart.com

This side of the globe just glows with heat,

and so I’d gladly take a treat.

Is someone there who’ll really listen,

and give me a glacial glass that glistens?

I’ll take a straw and gulp it down,

and make a gleeful slurping sound.

With glimmering cubes of glorious ice,

I’m thinking large would be so nice!
