Notes About The Poem

When I'M Old- -

When I'm old...
I'm gonna have a tree house cave
When I'm old...
I'm going to be  a lazy margarita lizard
playing with little baby sea serpents
And writing poems and verses on chalkboard
Oh, and when I'm old...
Aquarius my sign  sweet'N sour
I'll lotus easy peasy
Key lime the blue moon
While washing Orion's pearl
When I go old..
I'll sing a whale song
I'll whirlpool four-leaf clovers
Frost salmon it takes two to tango
In your eyes wax seal, blush babbling brook
And after when I'm old
I shalt be not dead yet alive
In heaven be gettin my praise on...
talkin to God and Jesus eating manna-watermelon
At the golden gates
For when your in heaven you're never dead
You're rebirth, reborn ever praising God forever

Oh, my, James! What an inspiration! All I was going to do was rock and rest. (just kidding you). I loved this joyous poetry!
