Smith's Octopuses Party On Pontoons

Smith’s Octopuses Party On Pontoons Rumor Has It My Dear Rumor has it my dear something spectacular is near Bring your batik hats to our grand lavish scene Wear flowing Kebeya robes Let them flow in the air We’re having our party upon the ocean On pontoons made of bamboo notions Flown in from Indonesia with crews Planks will connect all the segments Chris Christie will help with construction Bridging rafts with bamboo shoots & roots (We understand he understands bridges) Yachts will punctuate the festivities Covered in purple red flowers with care Tied to the floating swaying affair McCartney and Sting will be there Octopuses Garden is the theme And Paul will bring Ringo to sing The Clinton's and Bushes are on the list Paparazzi will see if they kiss or do tricks And who can resist our guests of honor Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt The main menu is set like this; Foie gras loco moco carne Matusaka beef Pheasant/Mallard breast roast Beluga Sevruga, Osetra caviar Goût de Diamants, Taste of Diamonds champagne Haute chocolate ice cream This all seems like a dream We pray that the weather holds up The only waves we wish to see is from us In the form of greetings and pleasantries The party has been planned for ages If storms should gather It won’t really matter We’re thankful The Royals, Mr.& Mrs. Smith are here To weigh down pontoons and rafts With billions in sacks of gold trinkets Door prizes for sure, (sorry no doors), for those who attend 500 guests will arrive at the gala A date with Mick Jagger and two jaguars Assured for each person as gifts guaranteed Compliments of King & Queen Smith Whose parties should never be missed A mystery guest, no surprise A legend in his own mind Mr. Trump and his hair might arrive Since the pope is preoccupied We’ll sway to the music with fine company All are welcome to our heavenly scene At the octopuses party on the sea 7/11/14 Rumor Has It contest

Hi Casarah, Thanks for your comments. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I'm from Atlantic City NJ. I worked for Donald Trump and his wife at Trump Castle Casino there, so I don't want to say anything bad about my former boss but I did intend on having some sport with his famous hair. Thanks again. Take care. Earl

4,000 apologies for the 7th placement. (which made no sense at all) My cat used 1 of his nine lives and jumped atop my computer hitting his lucky number which I did not notice until after publish. You placed "very high" and I shall be embarrassed for at least the next two months...

Hi Judy, Not to worry. Thank you for your gentle words and kind consideration of my humble poem, I write for entirely different reasons. One of them is not numeric placement. Have a great day. Take care. Earl
