Thornwood Manor Critters © - Tom Hyland - 12-24-08 Just Who is this Guy? Who takes Them in by the Litter? I have ‘oft Wondered Why - He is Also Such a Kidder? He Humbly Adopted the Name of Pee-Wee, A Diminutive Salutation, And fills us All with Glee - Along with Anticipation! A Champion of Causes of Various Sorts, The Earth - The Moon - The Stars - And Little Frogs with Warts! And Always At Odds with Wars! Sometimes he Says he’s a Wolf-Man, But More like a Teddy Bear, He’s the Ultimate Human - Full of Wit and Love and Care! Somewhere in the Burbs of Chicago, Is where he Hangs his Hat, And Romping in the Woods he’ll Go - Or - a Cave to find a Bat! Yes, he’s a Spelunker - Who Hails as MR. ED, And a Feral Feline Finder, Who Lets Them Share his Board and Bed! Rebecca is his Mean Tall Woman, With the Patience of a Saint, And She’s his Biggest Fan - Tho’ he’s Polish - so Irish he Ain’t! So many Dogs n’ Cats n’ other Critters, Of different Sorts and Manners - He Can’t get Any Sitters - To Work at Thornwood Manor! A Defender of Veterans’ Rights, And this Great Green Earth, He Takes up All the Fights, and Writes, Been Doin’ It Since Birth! Authors Den is Where he Posts, His Writings All Sublime - Yes - he’s the Guy - of Whom I Boast! How Does he Find the Time? Oh - there’s a Lot More, Of him that Could be Said, But, we’ll Keep that in Store - Else he Gets a Really - Big, Big Head! Congratulations! Illuminations! Emanations! Dalmatians! Sensations! Libations! Elations! From Both Nature and Nations! Hat Above Is Off To Him! © - TKH - 12-24-08

You are much too kind, Kind Sir Cur Cuz TomKat,

I’m just an old fart, who loves both nature and pets,

And who spent far too much time in a government bureaucracy,

Which still refuses to ‘do the right thing’ by all our vets.

And, Serdecznie dziękuję, I’m extremely proud of my Polish heritage,

And that of my spouse, Mean Tall Woman, the ‘on my case’ Apache;

If it wasn’t for her, I’d still be livin like a Wolfman, out in the woods,

And still Howlin at the Moon, with many marvelous mutts for company.

Cousin Pee Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

PS: I hear you had a real good time at the old Ed Family Reunion!!
