Jeff W. Watson Poet Rhyme

My Best Best Friend

I believe that my old friend is a genuine Albert Einstein 
She has great wit and wisdom and a finely tuned mind 
She never is or has been anyone's fool 
From kindergarten up through Rock n Roll school

My friend's partner is a in her own way 
She creates video games that are fun to play 
They like to catch Shinies on Pokè Mon Day
They like the watch Adventure Time, to another land it takes them away

The like to listen to Steam Powered Giraffe 
Great serious musicians who are a little bit daft
They play cool songs, their stage antics may make you laugh
They turned me on to them, I took to them fast 

Our relationship is not one of Trading Fours
We'll probably be friends for 57 years more 
If we live that long for sure
We both have opened the Perception Door 

We have seen live on the stage many old bands 
From Pat Benater, Fleetwood Mac and Steely Dan to Yes, Jimmy Page and Robert Plant
Now concerts are too expensive, so see more we can't 

I have many pleasant memories back over the years
Wether we would have a Seance, Build a Snowman or drink some Beer
We create new memories while today is here
Via Texts and Emails cause my friend is not near

While I'm here on this Earth starting to decompose
I hope that someday together a song we will compose
Lyrics I shall write like a Rock n Roll Prose
And my Drums, I will also play those 

And, of course, my talented friend shall play her Guitar 
And we shall compose a song, no matter how far
Though so far away from each other we are 
A new chance to become a Rock n Roll star

I hope that you have a Best Friend as good as I have 
One two tell your secrets to and have a Jolly good laugh
One who is wise and will accept you as you are
Even if you are just a temporary Mortal Shooting Star

We're just two of a kind, two peas in a pod
Even though the one, "that's me" is a little bit odd
When we first met, it was Rock n Roll in the sky
We're like Sherlock Holmes and that Doctor Watson guy

One joyous day we shall somehow meet again
Back together, you and me my dear old friend 
Playing Rock and Prog tunes and wreaking Havoc till the end 
We shall cry, "Havoc" loose the Dogs of war and release the Kraken

Just like the duo of Wonder woman and Batman
We're both superior and gifted Humans
It's mystic magic till the very end 
Now you see it, now you don't, going, going very fast

Now it's time for me to go and end my rants and raves
Time to end the show and enter a long sought grave
Where I shall endeavor to continue to write Prose and Rhymes 
While I and my Best Friend forever together ride the wave of time ...
