HOBBIES (Poem #37)
Hobbies are fun things, which you can do.
They sure can wile away the time for you.
A treasure hunt looking for that special find,
Finish of a set or take you back in time.
It's exciting to add to your collection,
Praise you receive for beautiful confection.
Collecting stamps, crosses and poetry I write.
I find hobbies can really enrich your life,
Build self-esteem and add to conversation.
A hobby just may bring you elation.
