Bet Your Sweet Bippy

Sunshine's predicted for a whole year to come Bet your sweet bippy! My big bopper succumbed From out of the blue Before this lad knew Was knocked back on his skinny old bum

Aww Jack you are the sweetest man that I've met. How close are you to Winnipeg? No the published stuff was boring. Nothing like the last two poems I'm afraid. I used to write for a Grey hound mag. I did for 6 months then gave it up. Also motivational stories for a Womans Mag, boring stuff too.

Just read your bio... I know, I know... what took me so long! Am I impressed?... you bet your sweet biddy I am!!!! So you say you're required to travel to many parts of the world!!! Canada MUST be on that list, RIGHT? In particular, TORONTO... RIGHT??? So when will you be arriving, my sweet friend! My popper is showing signs of popping like it's never popped before!!! Actually, my body needs Organic Skin and Body Care... ESPECIALLY MY BODY!!! (if you know what I mean... nudge, nudge, wink, wink!) Now, about this... “I'm also a published poet” thingy... where can I get a copy? If it contains anything as smoldering as those last two you posted, I'll pay a king's ransom for a copy!!! You must be so so proud of that very talented dad of yours! I am so impressed and honored to call you my friend, dearest Maria!!!
