Just noticed for the very first time
My hairline is definitely receding
My crowning glory, my silvery dome
My time here is short I'm conceding
If I ever wind up as Mr. Cue Ball Man
It's my time to close up shop
Basically, it'll be over, over and done
No incentive with no silvery crop
May sound vain, a wee bit conceded
But with this mug that I possess
Really need these charming adornments
Need all the help I can get
To impress the ladies, my hair was it
Running fingers through my silvery locks
They murmured tender sweet love words
Offering me all that they've got
Dream on dear fellow, you sound delusional
It's the total package that's the thing
With or without your silvery locks
As long as you've still got that zing
Florida is beckoning once again
The sun, the sand, those leisurely days
The total package, the change of scenery
The change of routine we all need and crave
There are many places on earth
Where this can be achieved
But this is MY paradise, MY wee bit of heaven
Everyone has their own favourite getaway
Florida has always been my second home
In particular, Siesta Key, just south of Sarasota
Those familiar with the area
Know when I refer to a white sandy beach
I'm not just whistling Dixie
Siesta Key is world famous
Think I'll head off to dreamland now
And pretend I'm there, in my own piece of paradise!

He is a leader, a great one!
Excessively funny! Yes… An incredible one!
He’s everything in this school, I should know.
That gene in the bottle is magically anew.
What else can you say about him?
Total package! Well, no one can beat his prim!
He sometimes easily gets mad,
His magical stories from the bottle get me tad.
He is such a wit! So much obvious!
His smiles symbolize him for being so much curious.
Whenever he tells his feelings to the rest of us,
We ended up smirking like he brightens us.
He puts plenty of spice in our smallest world,
That gene in the bottle is a greatest story of so untold.
Things can’t be always the same without his presence,
Magical things are not possible because of his essence.
Just noticed for the very first time
My hair line is definitely receding
My crowning glory, my silvery dome
My time here is short I'm conceding
If I ever wind up as Mr. Cue Ball Man
It'll be time to close up shop

No incentive without my silvery crop

Not every day is Class A Number One
There are some that are not quite as good
Like today for instance, started off fine
Then people got misunderstood
In desire to help, they do certain things
That makes others feel inferior
Can be unintentional without any malice
Perception is what's going to linger
Please fear not there is always a solution
Treat everyone you know with respect
It creates a much better understanding
Sweet feelings of love it reflects
Not every one's a Class A Number One day
But most are usually above average
Maybe it's me with my positive outlook
That helps make the total package

Heaven just walked through the door; I know because
O M G! His looks, his ways. . . He has no flaws!
The total package, but be wary; he might be
Temptation in an angel’s guise, “Hott” with a double “t.”

Knowledge is worth more than gold
Keep learning
Knowledge is worth more than rubies
Keep your mind active
Knowledge is worth more than currency
Keep your time fulfilled
Knowledge is worth more than in-kind trade
Keep your total package renewed
Knowledge is worth more than possessions
Keep your knowledge fresh, current, worthy
Keep your knowledge coming
Keep your knowledge error free
How you gift to you
Know
THE YEAR WAS 2001 THE SECOND DAY OF NOVEMBER
MY ANGEL EMERGED WHAT A DAY 2 REMEMBER
9-LBS 6-OZ A TOTAL PACKAGE OF LOVE
ALL THANKS & APPRECIATION MUSTERED WAS SENT 2 THE MAN ABOVE
NEVER KNEW A LOVE LIKE THIS.
COULD EVER EXIST.
A LIFE OF COMMITMENT WAS SEALED WITH A KISS.
EVERY DEMON & EVIL SPIRIT HE THRUSTED FROM ME.
CLEANSED MY HEART & MY SOUL THEN TRUSTED IN ME.
2 LOVE HIM & STEER HIM FROM DANGER SO THAT'S WHAT IVE DONE.
SEE MY ANGEL IS UNIQUE MY ANGEL'S MY SON...
Letter to Cupid
I got a few things to tell so just listen please
Cupid you hit all of your targets, so why you missing me
It’s like you can’t see me, so let me make myself visible
Casue without your presence my life has been miserable
Anticipating your arrow enough to where I’m ready to fight now
I feel I have the total package, Mr. Right looking for Mrs. Right, right now
Too much love inside to give to be living my life on my own
Even God put Eve here so Adam wouldn’t spend his nights alone
I always send you these love requests but all you do is decline
Like I’m better off alone, as if I don’t deserve a Valentine
I’m a good man but finding a good woman is just to hard
Be honest with me, is true love even In my deck of cards
My feeling is getting desperate, to the point where I live or die with it
Cupid I’m willing to take your arrow and commit suicide with it
All I need is one favor from you and I’ll be just fine
Just maybe you could shoot your arrow at me the next time
Stevie D/ Love Master
