Little Suzy’s Red Shoes by Suzae Chevalier
Little Suzy who is four years old
loves her red shoes they are like gold.
Gold to Suzy for they are magical indeed
They are to make Suzy taller instantly.
Now Suzy wears them everywhere
they make her dance like Fred Astaire.

Chicago 1993
The year was 1993 I did go
I was at the Chicago Computer Expo-
For the first time I played the interactive
3D reality game–
I won by eating all the sharks that
came my way.
I got a free taxi ride-
around the city-
what a fun time!
I went to the Museum of Contemporary Art
It had a large dinosaur when the tour did start.
I danced at the clubs in downtown south and north-
took a hotel shuttle back and forth.
They all promoted with shots to drink-
this is not Minneapolis I did think.
It was fun and I am glad I went-
it had great memories and time
well spent.

LAKE WORTH STREET PAINTING FESTIVAL 2011
Street Painting Festival was a great success
painted castle scene I did express
that birthday party ended swell
I painted it by myself.
Tons of people passing by
sun shining brightly in the sky.
My back and shoulders did get burned,
spray sunscreen every 90 minutes I did learn
friends brought me water for concerned.
All in all the festival was great
Talked to an Italian guy with tattooed arms
he hung around but meant no harm.
He stood by me and talked and talked
as I painted scene with colored chalk.
Coloring books I gave out some for free
others sold at Stuart Rooney’s
Import store
on table by door.
All in all the show was great
next year I can’t wait
for then I will paint
a totally different funny scene
Make it more of palm trees.

Children Are Like Butterflies
Children are like butterflies
that morph before your eyes
They can be molded–
but please sympathize.
Please treat children like
the precious beings they are-
let them take flight
and be a shining star.
Keep them smiling
even at age ten-
Make sure you really
listen to them-
and be their friend.
Children are geniuses
that can help the world
so encourage every boy and girl
that you meet to be the best they can be
for they are like the butterflies
colorful to show us how to be free.
