Jack Ellison Poet Quatrain

Whatcha All Doin' Fer Lunch

Can't believe how youse guys rallied around
When I said I was feeling a bit down
I'm blown away by your unbelievable friendship
You're the sweetest bunch of people around

Poets all seem to be warm and sensitive
Guess it's because we write about love
Reminding us about the true meaning of life
Tends to give our hearts a wee shove

I'm eternally grateful for the love you send me
Without it my days would just drag
With it, my days literally bounce along
If I had a tail, it would incessantly wag!

So all you sweet people, just want you to know
Love you all a whole great big bunch
I've never ever known so many sweet souls
Whatcha all doin' fer lunch?

Carol Eastman November 27, 2013 at 8:49 AM This is the last day of the Canadian Clipper... We're having some caribou and eskimos over for a Thanksgiving meal... They came here to- 30 high and 17 low- to bask in our warmth... Thursday is Thanksgiving... Want them to stay for the feast... The penguins are enjoying the ice and snow every where... Dragon looks fetching in his designer mukluks... But they slow him down... Going to make him some snow shoes... as watch the fun as he crashs thru the snow! Face first, Maybe? Bad Girl!...
