ELVIS IMPOSTERS

 

Elvis imposters

Not the real thing

They’ll capture his look

His songs they will sing

 

As a young Elvis

Some will perform

In sequined jumpsuits

Many transform

 

Of rock and roll

Elvis was king

When he left the building

No more would he sing

 

A great performer

We’ll never stop loving

And now to Graceland

His fans keep coming

 

Elvis imposters

His image you share

A great entertainer

With a life in despair

A tribute to Elvis Presley

 

Elvis imposters

Not the real thing

They’ll capture his look

His songs they will sing

 

As a young Elvis

Most will perform

In sequined jumpsuits

They will transform

 

Of rock and roll fame

Elvis was king

The music would cause

His hips to swing

 

And now to Graceland

His fans come to see

The home he’d bequeath

For you and for me

 

Elvis imposters

His image you share

Of a great entertainer

When you are there

Now a crazy cat lady

 

I’m now a crazy cat lady

Who had to rescue three

Abandoned tiny kittens

Who really needed me

 

All came from a mama cat

But no one looked the same

With many different colors

I gave them their own name

 

There’s Onyx who is black

Snowflake's tan coat it became

The third one is a Tabby

And Tiger is his name

 

We had to bottle feed them

Their mother was long gone

It’s better to be with her

That’s where they do belong

 

I soon became their mother

Cared for them constantly

Within the next few months

They’re now big as they can be

 

My husband’s very helpful

He feeds them while I’m sleeping

And cleans the litter boxes

Because all cats we’re keeping

 

These kitties are explorers

In closets they will hide

But only Onyx and Snowflake

In their stroller they will ride

 

On my chair while I am sitting

On my lap there can be three

Purring as I pet them

I’m glad they’re here with me

Calling my doctor

  •  

Too many options

For me to pick

Repeated if needed

It’s said way too quick

 

Too many doctors

I only need one

Though many are said

I'll wait till it’s done

 

Listening to music

While waiting on hold

I'm not next in line

The recording has told

 

Will I choose to wait

Or hang up the phone

A decision to make

While I'm sitting alone

 Seedless watermelon

What a waste

Whenever I eat it

It has no taste

 

When it has seeds

It really has flavor

A cold sweet fruit

To really savor

 

Who authorized this

To grow without seeds

No spitting or swallowing

They thought no one needs

 

A choking hazard

Could this be the reason

No watermelon seeds

In the summer season

 

A watermelon salad

So easy to make

To give it more flaver

To your home I’ll take

Wish you were still here

 

It seems quite unfair

That you’re already gone

Not seeing our Natan

Playing a song

 

Celine and Theodore

Who always make me smile

And Julia’s Bat Mitzvah

It was truly worthwhile

 

It’s so heartbreaking

That you’re not here

Enjoying your family

Who you’ll never be near

 

I think of you often

And it makes me sad

That grandkids can’t visit

Their great grandad

 

But it is what it is

That’s all I can say

Perhaps we’ll be reunited

In heaven one day

Freedom of Speech

 

Freedom of Speech

It can be very bad

When speaking of hatred

Just to make people mad

 

To say the Holocaust

Never occurred

Nor did a school shooting

Is truly absurd

 

Why are these people

Allowed to speak

And tell lies to those

Who are dumb and meek

 

Or to say they hate Jews

And slavery was a choice

Don’t broadcast this

With their crazy voice

 

Keep your thoughts to yourself

And watch what you say

Because you’ll get sued

And money you’ll pay
