A mega million jackpot

A mega million jackpot

I bought a lotto ticket

I didn’t choose my numbers

I let the computer pick it

I only bought 3 tickets

I’m sure that I won’t win

But why not take a chance

So, with this game I’m in

How will I spend this money

I’ve given it some thought

A summer place I’ll buy

I will not buy a yacht

I’ll give some to my family

Though there aren’t many

And perhaps to friends

I hardly do have any

I know I’ll give to charity

But I’ll be very sure

The money’s really going

To the people who are poor

My home is very nice

I doubt that I will move

My yard needs lots of work

And that I will improve

Though money can’t buy health

And that I know for sure

It really helps a lot

It’s better than being poor

Look, don't touch

Beautiful girls

In bikinis they walk

Along the runway

While the men gawk

In front of millions

These girls have no shame

Displaying themselves

On the road to fame

Miss America

They’re hoping to be

And they don’t mind

Dressing scantily

Bikinis are worn

No longer one piece

Showing more skin

Their chances increase

A scholarship pageant

That’s what they say

While 50 ladies

Are on display

Look, don’t touch

And never harass

Cause you’ll be told

You’re a snake in the grass

18 Years Since Y2K

It’s been 18 years

Since Y2K

They predicted computers

Would not be okay

By only programming

Two-digit numbers

They couldn’t prevent

This soon to be blunder

While the century was ending

On New Year’s Eve

As we sang Auld Lang Syne

Soon to get a reprieve

The computers still worked

Nothing drastic had occurred

Our lives have continued

Though for no one undeterred

Frozen Embryos

Because there are thousands

Of frozen embryos

It's a dilemma

They have nowhere to go

With too many eggs

The woman produced

They were fertilized

But all weren't induced

Those not used

Must be frozen

And no one knows

If the best were chosen

If they get destroyed

These tiny embryos

Is it like an abortion

Does no one oppose

Some get adopted

In another it will grow

But the egg it came from

Will the child want to know

Joy to the world

Joy to the world

In church we sing
The Lord has come
And blessings he'll bring

I don't always believe
There's joy all around
When people are suffering
Even in our hometown

When we see on TV
All the women who proclaim
That they were harassed
Though some achieved fame

When we see on TV
That our own President
Has caused so many
To become discontent

When we see on TV
All those people were shot
With an illegal gun
The shooter had bought

Those hurricanes
Caused many to despair
And relentless fires
Destroyed without a care

There's joy to be had

Though you're filled with grief

It's yours when you're ready

All it takes is belief
