Happy Birthday, Dr. Suess!

“I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it’s a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, and that enables you to laugh at life’s realities.” — Dr. Seuss

Here is a little something I wrote last year in honor of Dr. Suess. I tried to capture what I thought his description of stamping would be:  

Oh, the things
you can ink up
if only you try!
You can ink up
in yellow
or ink up in blue
You can ink up
a horse
or ink up a sky
with clouds floating by
Oh the things
you can ink up
any thing that you wish
Ink up in bright colors
ink up at night
ink up on a long trip
Oh, the wonder of
ink, ink, ink!
You can ink up a bouquet
to celebrate a birthday!
Oh the things
you can ink up
if only you try!

Spread the love
