An homage to Alan Rickman, RIP
You made us gag
You made us cry
You made us laugh
You made us smile
All the characters we loved
Even the villains unloved
Thanks for everything
You left behind
You were a true king
Of a different kind

An homage to James Earl Jones, Happy 85th Birthday!
A voice like thunder
Presence filled with wonder
From pre-med
On to the stage
Many a great characters
Taking us into adventures
But lucky were us nerds
When the voice of Darth Vader we heard
Other than that?
Well, of course, many happy returns!

Absolutely fabulous
Absolutely gorgeous
Absolutely hilarious
Absolutely flawless
Laughter is eternal
Completely universal
If I could not laugh
I would be terminal
Thanks for everything so far Ms. Betty
Throwing your way some confetti
What ever more you can deliver
I am totally ready!
Many happy returns!

Drumming a Beat
No need for a seat
Feeling the heat
As I am quite sweet
On dancing to the beat
Of a different drum

Life is a Musical (number)
Luck be a lady
Don’t be shady
Roll on those dice
Bring me nothing
But blue skies
Today
All day long
Singing along
Dancing, prancing
Even romancing
In the rain
Real life
Down the drain
Feels like
Witchcraft
Sorcery
No worries
Of groceries
When I’m riding
On this plane
All is fine
There is no time
To slow down
Get me to
Funky town
My life is
A musical
Today
“I cannot sing, dance or act. That’s never stopped me from doing any of those things” Gun Roswell
I Thought My Life Would Include More Impromptu Sing-a-longs
Call me crazy
Or a little hazy
Mostly amazing
And feeling like a daisy
Bursting into song
With the bang of a gong
In the middle of the street
Quick on my feet
On a rush hour bus
Without any fuss
Laughing, prancing
Singing, dancing
A dull working day
Blowing my mind away
Standing in the checkout line
Feeling absolutely fine
Laughing, prancing
Singing, dancing
Call the white coats
And have me committed?
Wouldn’t you rather
join me and admit it
A sing-a-long
Was just the thing
You needed
All along
Row row row your boat
Gently down the stream
Merrily merrily merrily merrily
Life is but a dream

All is quiet in our little suburbia

We would not want to disturb ‘ya 😉
So just sit down, relax

“The best seat in the house”
Snowy Seat
It may be cold outside
With lots of frosted snow
But as the sun comes from its hide
You need to take it slow
Take a seat for a while
Even if it’s not your style
And simply enjoy with a smile

In honour of Caturday, for all cats everywhere
“A black cat crossing your path signifies that the animal is going somewhere” Groucho Marx
Caturday, 2016-01-16
When the black cat
Was crossing the street
She was chasing a rat
Trying to act discreet
Hiding behind a big hat
Awaiting her treat
The grounded bat
Knew he tasted sweet
Stood still on the mat
There was no time to greet
Only time, for combat
After a long while
Both standing still
Trying to act hostile
But without thrill
So instead of the usual
They decided in mutual
This tale’s end
Will the norm bend
Cat and mouse decided
To shake their paws delighted
The lesson of this tale?
Sometimes it’s good to fail
