I have to explain today’s silly verse. It was actually written by my grandma – Margaret Thomasine Sneddon – who went by Tomie [sic] (1924-1966). Isn’t that a cool nickname? I love it. My grandma died 7 years before I was born. So all I have to get to know her are pictures and a few poems my mom gathered. I am sharing my favorite poem of hers. I think her and I would have shared many laughs together if given the chance. And now I know, I come by my dorkiness honestly.
