My Memory Bank

My memory bank is outta funds Someone musta robbed me in the night Think my name's either Jack or Charlie Can't remember which one is right Had to look on my driver's license To determine if I am who I am That's quite sad, seems I've lost my identity Could be a very famous man Heard of anyone regaining their youth Like totally full of beans once more Stealing hubcaps and other naughty stuff What a hoot that would be, for sure Dream on little fellow, ain't gonna happen You're doomed to a life of Metamucil It sure was a blast while the damn thing lasted Old age surely can be quite brutal © Jack Ellison 2014

Yes, Old age can be brutal my friend! I'm not quite where you are, but it has caught up to me as well! I too take Benefiber, kind of like Metamucil, such a lovely thing ain't it? I really enjoyed reading this illustrious poem this morning! What a delightful piece, Great Work!!

Dragon's Horrified! No one can forget Him! You worry us! It's time to put your mud- lucks on and come for a visit. 60 degrees today with rain and lightening. WOW! Tons of snow melted off in 2 days, even the mounds that were pure ice 2 days ago. AMAZING! Dragon thinks it's spring, but Spring is around the middle of March here. When is it where you live, in the North Pole? Sorry couldn't help myself! Bring Cathie. Dragon is infatuated with her. A little competition with Dragon will do you good!

Awww! Sweet Anne Lise! I am truly sorry... we seem to have lost touch! I will make sure I fix that! Old age sure isn't what I thought it was going to be when I was a young whipper snapper! Sending you a bunch of sweet kisses and tight squeezie hugs! XOXOXOX
