Curious -- The Singing Fellow

   Staying Curious No More

Little man, why do you sing like you do?  

Is it because I wind you up before

You shake your head, no, no, that isn't it 

Then tell me please, why do you croon like that 

Is there real blood running to your voice box? 

Course not you crazy fool, that isn't it 

As I sit and listen, your happy tune 

Perhaps it's solar makes you go, sunshine 

Guess again, I think you may never know 

Then I give up, won't you tell me please 

You turned the switch, three AA cells, that's it

Word List -- Declaration Enforced

   [Photo Copyright 2022 by Jimmiehov]

  The Announcement 

Angel's were beckoning 

The choir was singing 

Violins played the tune 

Unmuted trumpets blared 

loudly, 

announcing the news 

Good news -- 

Peace on earth was declared 

All the gods in the world 

Together melted swords 

Froze the guns, dulled the knives 

Best of all they Declared 

The Golden Rule to be 

ENFORCED

 - I am still on Sabbatical but my gracious  jailer has now allowed me to have some limited Wifi.  Still under lock and key though. That said I'm hoping to be able to return comments. NO mail though and one phone call a day.  Guess who I call.
