HE’S A RED HEAD AGAIN!!!
Worked all day in the sun,
That former red-head had done…
Enough to prove
He had a red roof,
His head was such a red one!

GINGER-LICIOUS PRIDE
REPRISE…MY FAVORITE REDHEAD (AT WORK)
A fan mentioned a name,
She thought “my favorite” the same…
I had to apprise
Her otherwise,
At work, ya gotta watch out for fame!
–
Now THAT one sure is nice,
And being a fan she’s nice twice…
Don’t want to inflame
ANY so-named,
And be treated with “shoulder ice.”
–
Honestly, I’d bring them all home,
But at home I am not alone…
I’m already in love
With a turtle-dove,
Who has claimed me as her own!
–
The “favorite” red-head is wise
To keep me back with her eyes…
This other one too,
Knows what to do
To keep me from tempting disguise.
–
This distance is good for me,
These women, no doubt, would agree…
Keeping it pure
And demure
Is better, sharing poetry!
–Jonathan Caswell

RED HAIRED FRUIT
(from http://www.raising-redheads.com/)*
The redhead stereotypic:
Emotional, impatient, sadistic…
Find a match in the Word
Growing as spurred
On by His Spirit realistic.
–
The fruit of God’s Spirit seen
In Ephesians 5:22-23…
Will make a “red” sing
Joyously on the wing,
Fulfilling our true destiny!
–
Spirit-fruit grows within us
When we yield control to Him who is sinless…
More Spirit control
Strengthens the soul,
Replacing life strategies winless.
–Jonathan Caswell
