THANKFUL FOR WALKING

Today I’m thankful for walking…
as exercise fads come and go…
I continue to be enthralled
by the simple act of walking

The leprechaun wanted his gold
It was the oldest story told
He searched high and searched low
Until he stomped his big-toe
His gold was a story fore-told

Oldest Museum In Iraq

Oldest museum was built in Iraq
Built by Babylonian princess – fact.
No one knows her name.

Every farmer knows
the cow means more

Forbidden Love

I see him stand there tall and handsome
He belongs to my oldest friend
He looks over her head at me
Our eyes lock dreamily
I want to touch him
This is a sin
He wants me

The oldest of friends will always remain as truest of friends.
Although sadly sometimes some of us can never be all too sure 
If you'll ever truly have chances to see them again.

has lost it’s long time faux pas rating.

Come be merry 
on the streets of the French quarter.
Come be merry,

with a girl in the oldest profession.
Was found with his pants down,
on the wrong side of town.

Businesses now all 
Turning to dull

Hanging on death bell 
Beggars in bazaars not keen 
No giving hands seen

How Old I Am

My oldest son's birthday was yesterday he turned 45; 
it sure lets you know how old I am
I’m tired of getting old and tired of being tired, 
but I would do it all over again
