Standing Up To Cancer

Riding the porcelain pony
the chemo hershey squirts

Not my favorite moments
but your inspiration for song 
helps me get it along
and I come out laughing now

I am doing tea and toast for breakfast
a banana chaser oh how passe
I feel just like a toddler
right down to my sore hiney

Still I am laughing on the inside
and writing on with pride
for this too soon shall pass I know

And I love joking with you
and sure do miss you
a chat with you makes my days flow

So laugh for the comedian girl
she's going through something 
but will triumph in the end

She standing up to cancer 
cause  that 
and with that I tell you again
I love you see you soon
