Same Ol'

If I were younger, just a bit, and skinnier, and smart,
If I had more hair up on top - that would be a start.
If I could jump a wee bit higher, was more flexible and tanned,
If my shoulders were broader, and my knees less wobbly -
and straighter I could stand. . .

Well then I'd be younger and less fat and smarter,
A full head of hair, a tall drink of water.
A higher jumper and bendy and tanned,
More stout and sure-footed, a good-looking man.

But I don't think I'd change my ways just because of that.
I think I'd sit in this same ol' spot and where this same ol' hat.

Work Work Work

Woke up this morning, went to work
Just like I do each day.
Sat at my desk and took a nap,
Some solitaire I played.
And then I texted all my friends,
Told them everything I'd done;
Which really wasn't very much,
And wasn't very fun.
Then I took a lunch break,
Had ham and cheese on white;
Ate a bag of Ruffles,
I also had a Sprite.
Back to work I went -
Checked email and had a snack;
Talked a bit about about the weekend
With Jim and Sue and Jack.

5:00 finally came,

Clocked out - got in my car;
I think I'll find another job,
This one seems too hard.

Just In Case I Forget.

I thought I'd let you know tonight -
I do not need to wait.
I need to get this off my chest
Before it is too late.
I should have told you yesterday,
Or maybe the day before. . .
I should have told you years ago,
Or maybe even more.
I can't believe I haven't yet,
I'm really feeling bad;
I need to tell your mother too -
And then I'll tell your dad.
So please sit down and listen up,
Important?  Yes, indeed!
You may even need to write this down,
For later on to read.
If I wait much longer I may forget,
And then I'd feel like snot.
So here it goes. . .Oh, never mind -
I think I just forgot.
