Living the Aging Life

My candle is burning.

Steady and true.

It spreads its hope.

It’s there for you.

I hope a bit of friendliness will come your way today.

I hope it nestles in your heart, then settles down to stay.

I hope this day goes well for you.

I hope you are a Winner.

I hope you’re Happy as a Clam,

and that your scales read:   Thinner!!

Today is Earth Day.

 Spring is here!

The weather’s vibrant:

 Bright! And Clear!

The sky is blue.

The clouds drift high,

and troubles seem to pass us by.

Today is Earth Day.

We are blessed.

This Planet seems like

Just the Best!

I hope today that you will find

deep satisfaction in your mind.

You’ll be content, when day is through,

‘cause all has gone quite well for you.

The ants are marching cross the floor,

from outer wall right for the door.

The Spring Invasion has begun!

But, I will Fight Them, Ev’ry One!

I’m missing Daphne quite a lot.

I’ve turn into a watering pot.

She’s just a cat.  So I can’t see

how she ever got this grip on me.

Close your eyes, my little one.

Let slumber overtake you.

Sleep with quiet dreams in peace

till dawning light awakes you.

I hope your day is ordinary.

Nothing gritchy.  Or contrary.

I hope things go just as they should

and turn out as you wish they would.

Ask your Doctor!  He won’t lie!

I’ve got a product you should buy!

(If things go well, without a hitch,

this drug we’ve made

should make us rich)!

C’mon!  Get Going! Give it a try!

Odds are good that you won’t die!
