Help Wanted

HELP WANTED by Frank Halliwell Jimboomba, Australia Public Domain. I've been pondering my future As we're sometimes apt to do, Trying to reach conclusions On the paths I might pursue! I've wandered ancient castles filled With France's storied past, And stood atop the Tour Eiffel.. ..The view was unsurpassed! I've climbed the famous leaning tower, ..A trifle ill at ease! And strolled Italian boulevards Lined with spaghetti trees. In retrospect, I can't complain, Life has been good to me, 'Cause what you see is what you get.. There are no guarantees! Canada is beautiful But winters were a grind.. And in the end, I found a home Where elements are kind. Where Frangipani perfume fills The tranquil tropic night And views on golden beaches Fill the viewer with delight! Exotic birds flock to my door In nature's bold array, And all my cuddly furry friends Surround me every day. I've got it all, it seems to me Here in my country nook.. And life might reach fulfillment... ...If I only had a cook! No union members need apply.. The boss is reputable.. Fringe benefits are marginal, But the pay's abominable! o0o
