(With apologies to the Bard of Stratford–upon-Avon) To my friend Alex on his 80th Birthday. Bless him, he is still full of wishful thinking…

If wishful thinking be the food of love Every old man wood coo like turtle dove. All old men would cuddle a blond bombshell And wouldn’t give a toss ending up in hell. If wishful thinking be the food of love All old men would be in heavens above, Frolicking ‘bout with girls with nothing on… If wishful thinking… well… lets just dream on… © P. J. Oszmann (2004) Illustration (2004)
