Rep Power: 233 | A Good Life Seeing as how everyone else is jumping in, here goes: I am honored to have been asked to write a poem for the Parrots at Play Calendar program (a non profit org) for the last few years and each year they have a "theme", this is the one that I wrote for them about Parrots being so very long lived, so much so that most of them will out live us. A Good Life I know what your Grandpa did And your papa too When I was hatched from my egg Back in forty two I saw him kiss your mom Way before they wed The big day of the Prom And all the things they said The day that you were born I was there to see you cry Then I, in my loyalties, was torn When you looked me in the eye I’ll live to see you marry And have a kid or three But before I grow too weary And life will set me free There’s something I must say to you Before I spread my wings and fly There’s nothing I would change or do A life of love and peace had I I loved your Grandpa and your Dad And of course I loved you too And all the good times that I’ve had Starting that day in ‘forty two Graehstone |

Just make sure you let them know that you like the poems as that's one of the things they get little feedback on. Thanks in advance Hugs being sent. | |
