22.04.2015 – 107) Austin Wildlife Rescue my last day

I’m here for the morning then I’m away

Like as such I’ll not take on too much

It’ wouldn’t be fun, leavin’ the job half done

So I’ll to the raccoon room head,

Get the little possums changed and fed

Takin’ pride, workin with care I’m doin it

The last time so I don’t want to ruin it

All fed some given a caress, now it’s goodbye an’ God bless

Headin’ South drivin’ down I – 35 to another town

New poems to write, new adventures to find

But I’ll always remember with love

Those of God’s creatures I helped an’ left behind

 

108) Headin’ for San Antonio listenin’ to the radio

One station gets dull don’t think “Oh brother”

Press the button find another

Then comes Thin Lizzy layin’ it down

One of their greatest “The Boys are Back in Town”

Knowin the words I’m singin’ along

Then I think maybe I could change the song

Make my own words fit, it may not be a hit

But I find, the chorus comes easy to mind

Spread the word around The Road Poets Back in Town

 

109) Motel found, downtown I’m bound

To the library a computer I’ll find

Catch up on all the news and views on facebook say what’s on my mind

When it’s done, back I’ll run

An’ take the time with good intent,

Deciding what to read at my next event

Sun Poets at Olmos Pharmacy, McCullough Street, it’ll be great to meet

Them all again after what seems a long time

An once again share our love of poetry and rhyme
