Fame Is a Fleeting Thing

Fame is just a fleeting moment Until the next so called sensation hits the scene Make as much hay while you can because soon you'll be yesterday's news Your adoring fans are fickle and before you can say Justin Bieber You're yesterday's child, yesterday's sensation And your adoring fans have moved on to the newest and latest heartthrob You see us ordinary folks don't have that problem People who love us today will still love us tomorrow Fame is such a fleeting thing But true love is a forever thing © Jack Ellison 2014

Don't forget, Dragon love is forever too. I'll be your adoring fan F.O.R.E.V.E.R cause you let me play with your poems. And you talk to me. And don't care what I look like... Are you sure you're not a Dragon? They're very lovable... you know! Especially when they get their way in anything! And they want that A LOT! Snicker! OOOPPPS! Dragon heard me... Last one into that snow drift is a rotten apple... and has to help wash the dishes... OW! Dragon stepped on my foot! That's cheating! Dumb Dragon!
