Jack Ellison Poet Quatrain

Bring Your Own Sunshine

Wherever you go, don't forget
Bring your own sunshine along
To brighten up the path you travel
Singing a happiness song

It's certainly possible, look at me
Can't wipe this smile from my face
Mona Lisa can't hold a candle to Jacko
Brightening the darkest place

Am I happy with my life so far
Bet yer sweet bippie I am
Was never much of a complainer ever
Or a down-in-the-mouth type man

So wherever you go, don't forget
Give everyone your big high fives
Never leave home without your sunshine 
You'll brighten up so many lives

Carol Eastman June 26, 2015 at 9:40 AM Last month had 2 times the normal rainfall at 9.42 inches, and NO Sunshine. This month the hurricane made a trip from Texas to here. Giving us a week of down pours. Finally had 2 days sunshine. Then more gully washers. The puppies and Dragon wouldn't leave the patio to do their business. And I don't blame them! Mud every where! A gale rain last night forced water in the back garage door and out the front garage door. 1st time for that, and have lived here since '86. Rivers at major flood levels. Jack Ellison June 26, 2015 at 9:38 PM May was fantastic up here... June has sucked! Perhaps July will finally bring on summer! xxx Carol Eastman June 26, 2015 at 9:43 AM Think I'm gonna stick some sunshine on one of those silly selfie sticks... and carry it around with me! LOL
