Proceed With Caution

Happy Jack is back on track Took a bit of a break, I did Need one every now and then Emotional like a kid Wear my feelings on my sleeve For the whole wide world to see Not ashamed, it's who I am It sets my emotions free Considered myself a lucky man To feel this burning desire Nothing special, a regular dude But deep down inside, a fire Glowing brighter than ever before Alerting me to love up ahead Sign says, “Proceed With Caution” Chose to ignore it instead Steam ahead, to hell with caution Never find love if you hide Be brave, plunge headlong into love Go ahead and give it a try Happy Jack is back on track Took a bit of a break herewith Everyone please just rest assured The giggles will return forthwith © Jack Ellison 2013

I love that you chose to ignore it. Rather read this kind of brilliance then watch anything on tv. Always, Laura

One of our Trolls is being groomed by a neighborhood leprechaun to run races... They're starting at the high school track meets and want to do the Boston Marathon some day... Dragon got facinated and decided to run track, too... You might say he blew the competition away... Bad Dragon! That's not nice! Smoking the competition doesn't mean giving them a hot foot!... Tsk... Tsk... No! Scaring all of the runners away will not get you a metal! Now you're kicked off the team, instead! Silly Dragon!
