This Exquisite Emotion

Like sailing on a moonbeam, this feeling so exquisite Never felt such overwhelming devotion A feeling so intense like the very first time As I succumb to this heart felt emotion Written about in books, sung about in songs Since the very first romantic encounter Adam and Eve, Romeo and Juliette The story of love never alters What's happening to me, love's taken over The sillies are more difficult to write Gonna take a shower till my senses cool This love stuff is giving me a fright What if my sillies have been lost forever Might very well resign from the Soup Known as the jester, funny man of renown Gonna try hard the sillies to recoup Like sailing on a moonbeam, this feeling so exquisite Never felt such overwhelming devotion © Jack Ellison 2014

Sounds like Dragon as he looks in mirrors at himself. Complete overwhelming devotion! Imagine when he's grown up! You're OUR moonbeam that we're devoted to. Jester or serious we'll still be there for you. Just ask Dragon. He says he''ll snort fire and rain on anyone's parade who thinks differently. Silly Dragon! He should learn: not everyone needs to think as he does, But that's Dragon. 'Why not? Because diversity adds layers of beauty' He's scratching his head on that one. Sigh! Don't hurt yourself, Dragon!..

Shall we start calling you "softie", Jack? You are traveling in no man's land territory, don't you know? Ha, you'll be flying high as a kite :)
