A Poem From Book 2 of the

Ollie & Joey ® Trilogy

Sometimes life gives you limes 

Sometimes it gives you a goose 

Put them together and get

A miraculous boost - 

A colorful, refreshing flavor 

Full of coal and joy -

A time you will create -

A time you cannot toy. 

Take time to chew -

Take time to enjoy - 

The large bowl you cooked -  then topped

With green and white bok choy.

Stand up and be true, 

Prove your ethics clear 

Commit and hold yourself accountable 

Commit and hold your loved ones dear. 

Stand true on your moral ground - 

Even amongst enemies - 

Don’t dare betray 

Study for your tomorrow 

As much as you pray for your today. 

Did you do the right thing? No? Yay? 

Whatever pours out of your pitcher - 

It’s your lime goose lemonade.
