Word of the Day

Today’s definition is BOWER,

A shelter of tree boughs and vines

Which sometimes has blossoms that flower,

With man-made or Nature’s designs.

 

It’s also a common misspelling

For Bauer, my married last name,

Despite all the products now selling

As Bauer, of clothes and skates fame.

 

Still, I like the “bauer” connection.

It conjures an image quite pleasant,

Much better, of course, on reflection,

Than its translated meaning of “peasant.”
