Mushy

I'm usually known for my silly stuff But once in a while I surprise Drooling all over my keyboard and yours With mushy stuff I fantasize It's true I sometimes wear more than one hat Contrary to what you may think Can be sillier than the silliest damn jester Then switch as quick as a wink Become all gushy and mushy and stuff Talk of pretty flowers and love Then sure as shootin' it's back to the sillies Giving your giggler a shove This back and forth stuff is really dizzying Imagine if I wrote about dying Some are obsessed with negative things If I said that was me I'd be lying It's not for me that tear jerky stuff Guess my life's been too damn happy Not complaining I'm a perky old geezer Maybe a better word is slaphappy © Jack Ellison 2012

Love this one too. "Giving your giggler a shove" Yep - that's what you do best! Though I must say your "mushy" work is endearing. Always, Laura
