A Happy Old Bird

Hello you sweeties and you guys too
Hope you all have a fantastic day
It's the fervent wish I wish every day
Us Soupers must stay close I say

Support each other when we feel down
We're all susceptible to this quirk
Always look on the bright side of life
Don't worry if it's only a smirk

Gotta start somewhere, maybe a smirk
Soon you'll be giggling away
Greeting everyone with a cheery hello
Wishing them a sunshiny day

Attitude's the key, gotta think positive
To get through our daily routine
You guys help put a smile on my face
When your names pop up on my screen

Want you to know how much you mean
I'd be lost without your kind words
So a hug and a kiss to all you sweet peeps
You make me a happy old bird

Carol Eastman Date: 3/14/2014 9:15:00 AM Dragon's happy! Grandpa Troll is giving him his breakfast. I'm a Happy old bird cause Jack is happy again! Our Mama and Papa Hawks are Happy old birds since they left their dim witted son Junior in our back yard! Junior can't catch any of the birds I feed. He caught a squirrel once, but it clawed up his bottom. He spent 2 days soothing his behind in our birdbath! Watching him swish his bottom back and forth in the bird bath was hilarious... Poor Junior! He happily catches mice now. Good choice! Login to Reply Jack Ellison Date: 3/14/2014 9:42:00 AM You and your guys contribute immensely to my happy days! You NEVER let me down! WOOHOO! XOXOX
