I reside in Dublin, Taxifornia land of

I have this poem by Shel Silverstein © 1986
Posted over my computer. It is what I try to do.

"Draw a crazy picture,
Write a crazy poem,
Sing a mumble-gumble song,
Whistle through your comb.
Do a loony goony dance
'Cross the kitchen floor,
Put something silly in the world
That ain't been there before."


"Those who bring sunshine in to the
lives of others cannot keep it from
themselves." James Barrie

"We don't laugh because we're happy;
we're happy because we laugh."
William James

"If you're funny, if there's something
that makes you laugh, everyday's going
to be okay."
Tom Hanks

Those who laugh---Last.

POLITICS


by Charles E Minshall

____________________

Waterfalls of oratory,
Flooding hill and plain.
Lies and promises falling,
Like a bitter winter rain.

If each lie was a dollar,
I'd be willing to make a bet,
There would be no lack of money,
To pay our nations debt.


Lol!He made me laugh so much.I wonder is he published in a book? He should be.
