Just a Reminder

What does it feel like, do you feel the same Do you still have that seductive style Do you still have a soft, sweet tender young body Do you still have that come hither smile Remember it well, those many years ago Our age has surely changed us both Even if you resemble Porky Pig or Bugs Bunny No matter, I now resemble a sloth Okay, maybe that a bit of an exaggeration The Porky Pig and Bugs Bunny thing Bet you can still warble like Celine Dion Sure would like to hear my love sing “Smitten” is the word that so aptly applies To this dude with a receding hairline This elderly old duffer can still cut the mustard Can just see me as a CNN headline Okay enough is enough of this silly banter The reason I wrote this rhyme Is just a reminder that I'll love you forever And that's an extremely long time © Jack Ellison 2014

Dragon thinks he sings like an Angel... We say words can't describe his cata-a-wallering... He thinks you wrote this just for him... And we all know that was SOOOooo nice of you... LOL.... Don't worry... I won't tell him the truth... I know you wouldn't want to break a WEE Dragon's L'll Old Heart... LOL... He DOES have a way of making everything about him... you know... Silly Dragon!
