Myself In Melodies

The instructions were to write yourself with song lyrics. Here it is: I am woman hear my voice, you can cower, but I will find you. As nicely as I can, I must say, "Take this job and shove it. " Gypsies tramps and thieves parade around, showing my own feelings. I am happy, happy, happy, happy, happy, happy, insanely so some days. Proud Mary, you make me want to shake as we roll on the river. I'm Henry the 8th I am, Henry the 8th I am, I am. Not Henrietta, Henry. For I am the king, not a mere queen. Caren with a C like Liza with a Z

Many many moons ago, when I was in the Navy, that song “Take this job and shove it,” was sung out by a couple sailors using pencils for drumsticks. So you brought back a fun memory!

I am so glad that I could. Not this job though Kim. I love this job. It is different than the 28 jobs I quit.

Excellent job, Caren. Love that last line, but the whole poem is definitely Caren!
