My Mission
Made a lot of questionable moves
But in spite of all my impurities
Ageing lines on my time weathered face
Are a testament to my maturity
The years have taken their toll of course
Walk slightly bent over with a shuffle
But my mind's still active and sharp as a tack
Never mind I'm sometimes kerfuffled
Still look at life with a twinkle in my eye
Happy tunes dance 'round in my soul
It's not about who's got the biggest toys
Creating the most smiles is my goal
I can honestly say my mission's complete
By the comments of friends on PS
As a jester I promise to lighten your heart
Be assured I'll give it my best
