Promptly Prompting

from dawn from all day long tis time for to dust off my boots release my socks and let breath my feet dusk is upon all of us but for me i watch to no suprise you are on my horizon with your moon rise you raise me up from a child to a man beginning over again and so i am the stagehand raising the riser for you to step higher then with wires pulling you into my backdrop of a star lit sky where i hold tight and with awed breath guide you through night's sigh that is mine but truly all yours

George Burns' best words of truth and wisdom were when he reached 100 years of age. He was asked, "What does your doctor think about you smoking and drinking too much?" Burns replied, "I don't know. He's dead."
