Rhyme Time by Line

Remember in youth when

Happiness was every day back then?

Yesterdays and youth,

Millenniums via history seemed uncouth.

Envision life from youth to old age,

Taking decades of life worked at minimum wage.

Incessant are the memories, those moments we live,

Muttering obscenities of all the take and give,

Everyone, everything gone, nothing left, not even a love song.

Busted because the rules say you are, and you just move along.

Youth behind us ever so far,

Languishing in those moments sublime, like a fading star,

In as much as we choose to forget periods of filled with rife;

Now we are faced with the reality of human strife,

Enveloping, struggling, yet cherishing our own human life.

One Extra for the Halibut … (No Title)

Little Miss Tuffet,

met Jimmy Buffet.

She said her name is Maddy,

and that Jimmy is her daddy.

Jimmy had no clue,

and as a rule,

he thought, no way,

but didn’t know what to say,

so he excused himself and ran away.
