My Icky Gooey Soft Side

This jester has been un-jester-like lately
Gushing with loving thoughts
What has happened to this happy old jester
Acting like a teenager with the hots!

My icky gooey soft side is showing
Try to keep it hidden from view
But it overtakes me once in a while
Not to blame, plead innocent, I do

I'm feeling a bit icky gooey right now
Trying hard to resist, it's true
But don't blame me if it pops up again
Trying hard, that's all I can do

Guess I'll just let the sweet love flow
Funnies will be left to brood
Just for while till it's out of my system
And I'm rid of this loving mood

Perhaps NEVER!!!

Poet Tacito September 15, 2013 at 8:15 AM In the words of Journey- DON'T STOP BELIEVING! Don't make me sing the rest of this. The icky gooeys, the warm fuzzies, it's all good...soak it all in! Let it be your sunshine in the garden of your heart. :) Jack Ellison September 15, 2013 at 8:40 AM Man... you sure know how to say the right things... and with that ever present sly humour. I am duly impressed my very good friend! Have a super Sunday!

Carol Eastman September 15, 2013 at 7:46 AM Talk about Icky Gooey... Dragon just discovered icky gooey butter cake... Can't get enough of it! Talk about rich! One piece and I'll be running all week to get weight off... Even Dragon will get chubby! How can you tell that on a Dragon, any way? The Trolls loved it! Dragon got an upset tummy, not a pretty sight... And he's a horrible patient!Takes gallons of peppermint tea to soothe his tummy... The Trolls are doing calisthenics to get their slim trim figures back.... Watch the Trolls! Dragon! Jack Ellison September 15, 2013 at 7:57 AM Please offer my sincere apologies to your brood! LOL Big hugs... xoxoxox

We are a dying breed, lost within the shuffle of all the grumpies and hurting ones! We still love all throughout with peace and harmony within our writes..even if I do write several ghoulish Halloween ones, I still write with care and love within them! What a grandiose piece my friend, Awesome Work!! Jack Ellison September 15, 2013 at 7:24 AM Let's promise to keep it alive my good friend Russell! Have a super Sunday!!!
