Is frozen in precious moments of pure delight,
From bursting buds, to the spicy boom of blooms,
Nature is...

My favorite radio show
is Wait...Wait, Don't Tell Me!
on NPR near you.

But, it has bothered me,
over the years,
a snagging voice in sign-off background,
threatening the host will see me again next week,
as if that was the answer...

I was a bonafide, happy beautician, like a gorgeous, daisy sun as it is rising;
And charming, happy faces were my pursuit, like silvery moonlight uprising.

My days were a flurry of manicures and facials, like nature's...

Each butterscotch morning I drove to work, and toiled until red sundown.

The observatory was the place I loved, keeping watch on our nearest star;

The Tramp Persona
Who was this boy, a pauper born?
Existing in despair and continual forlorn
Scandalized, accused of communist sympathies
Encompassing both adulation, and social controversies

Whenever we are apart

Our heart belongs to each...

Owning the ability to strikingly be on a rough road. 
Need the pride to cross the hazardous paddled rowed.

Cross a no-return line for Rome's dictator to goad.
