Jack Ellison Poet Narrative

What a Wonderful World

Okay time for some happy upbeat stuff

And I'm just the guy that can bring it

Mr. Happy is what some people call me

Is there any other way to be

The world is filled with nasty stuff

There's enough of that going around

Need something to counterbalance it

So start grinning and singing and acting like a clown

The world is just a great big circus anyway

Might as well add your unique perspective

Can't get worse, only get better

So c'mon youse guys!

Join me and Louis Armstrong...

“What A Wonderful World”

Carol Eastman April 9, 2014 at 8:27 AM Your the tops... By the Way I wrote a Dragon Hood poem Featuring Cathie as the Maid Marian... Naturally, Dragon wouldn't let me write it... if I didn't. He has some good ideas... occasionally... Yes, Dragon... That really was a compliment. Now, will you please leave my running shoes alone and PUT the Barbecue Sauce DOWN! Silly Dragon doesn't know when he's winning... Ha! Now THAT he DOES understand! GOTTA RUN... Jack Ellison April 9, 2014 at 8:41 AM Hey... hey... hey!
