Agnostic Blessings: Literary Genius!



Blessing #133


Dr. Seuss would have been 106 today.  Every year at this time I am marveled and, yes, even tickled by his literary genius.

I love Dr. Seuss as well. Who doesn't?

I am in love with the new book Skippy Jonjones. Forget who the author is, but it always reminds me of something Dr. Seuss would pen.

I love his stories
yes I do!
I love his writing
How 'bout you?
He wrote about critters
red and blue
And even some guys
He made up, too.
He wrote about fishes
and cats in hats
And Whos and Whats
and Grinches
(in spats?)
My very first Seuss
was on "Mulberry Street";
I loved him a lot
and I still think he's neat!

I should write a poem with clever and bizarre, self-invented words here, but I'm not really that clever, and he wasn't really a doctor. So RIP.

Read Across America all day long baby! I love this day too because we wear pajamas and I am soooo comfortable! It was a Seuss-y day in K!

I was never a big Dr. Seuss fan, but I did read his books to my kids and grandkids. I love your new look, Jason!

Happy Birthday to Dr Seuss, who brought me and my children so much joy through his clever, silly words.

Someone posted a quote of his on FB yesterday and it was so cool. Wish I could remember what it was or even who posted it. May have been you for all I can remember!

Your blog layout is FANTASTIC!!! I couldn't love it more if it was wearing eyeliner.

Oh, um, and Dr. Seuss, too.

Tracey Axnick said...

Dr. Seuss ROCKS! But, strangely, like an earlier commenter, I saw "Theodor" also as "The odor"... isn't that strange??

And I REALLY LIKE the new blog layout! Muy bueno!

I love Dr. Seuss! And it was a special treat seeing all the Cat in the Hat hats on all the kids on the bus when Princess Nagger came home from school on Tuesday. :)

Love the new look - it loads much faster now! :)
