Why are you a rhymer?
Why always must you rhyme?
You write all right
But when you write
You're rhymin' all the time
When did you start rhymin'?
Well, when I was kid
though sounds absurd
I'd hear a word
and that's just what I did

Not my first born
nor my #last
she's my monkey in the #middle
All her life she's felt the slight
hand me downs that don't fit right
In the footsteps of her older Sis
Marsha Marsha, she would hiss
I tell her I #cherish them all the same
then I pat the hand of what's her name

If one does not deserve your heart
then one shall not receive it
unrequited is for fools
no hesitation
leave it

Oh how I wish we could
go back to where we stood
when you cupped my face and kissed me
and that large cube van just missed me
I should have traded places
and as you bent to tie your laces
I would have listen for the whuush
and firmly give a push

The sadness comes from what I've missed
from hands not held and lips not kissed
from lonely nights with noone there
a bed for one, no laughter shared
the years go by, hope dissipates
some hearts are overlooked by fate
from time to time the dream persists

My fears can be stifling
gotta face 'em head on
My laughter is magic
poof, sadness is gone
My #health is my wealth
I know this for sure
My thoughts often scattered
though nothing but pure
My memory is iffy
still I know what I know
My morals are solid
you reap what you sow

I now treat myself with movement
where once my treats were sweet
no need to run a marathon
just simply move your feet
I now treat myself with solitude
where once my guilt not dare
tis fine to spread your time around
sans some you will not share

A #giggly cashier ringing up my stuff
chatting with another
as if not slow enough
seems there is a new guy
stocks shelves & sweeps the floor
heard them call him Pee Wee
then they giggled even more
so with my order finished, I said thank you dear
I could use a hand
is my son Pee Wee here?
