An old hippie lives here...

Humorish, as I can't figure what else to post this under...


Poem Artwork

An old hippie lives here,
He tends to be rather grumpy,
But there is no need to fear,
He has many a peer,
But rarely do they here appear…

Of his home he does now hang around,
As his life is kind of winding down,
And surprisingly, his mind is still “somewhat” sound…

He likes to hear himself speak,
Good health is what he does seek,
And for the most part he has it,
Though every now & again,
His plumbing does spring a leak…

It's better to be an old hippie, than an old grouchy man, isn't it Ed.

Guess all us old hippies are a bit leaky one way or another these days, Ed. Mine are of the mental variety, rather than the urinary kind but guess they are much the same thing! Perhaps that's what keeps us just so coooool.... :) xx

ED, Never was I a Hippie, but knew a few...You tell things
the way you see them and that is your rule.

Always,

I never was that, "hip." But, being clear of head, you have laid out your situation very well for us. And as the church lady said, "Isn't that special?" Especially the part about the 30-year-old galvanized plumbing in my home that is springing leaks and costing me a lot of money. ;-)
