Jack Ellison Poet Quatrain

Jazz and Pizzazz

Some call me silly
That may be the case
But I don't have ulcers
No lines on my face

Dancing through life
No worries no cares
Live every moment
With passion and flair

Ain't no great mystery 
It's as simple as pie
Trust in the future
Trust in your “I”

Keep moving forward
With jazz and pizzazz
Pay no attention
To the razzamatazz

So take this advice
I'm offering my friend
It don't take much effort
Pays great dividends

Some call me silly
That's possibly true
But happy as all get out
How about you?

Variety is the spice of life (cliche I know, but it does apply). Jack Ellison May 6, 2013 at 5:57 AM Well I'm as happy as all get out, my good friend! LOL Love cliches... have a good one Tomothy!
