Isle of Capri Pee Wee Memories

I was gonna post the next chapter


In the Epic Battle of The Eds,


Until I read this on AD yesterday:


 


“Oh yes, he can fool everyone but me,


Because I was his nurse, on the Isle of Capri,


When he was just plain Ed, and he married me,


His Big brother, Jersey Devil, was our Best Man,


All before my Pee Wee Ed cooked up his crazy plan.


 


And Rufuz, our loyal family dog, cared for us all,


Now he says he doesn’t know me, of all the gall!


 Now that I've exposed him, I hope he'll be happy,


For never again, will he get to see Ed Island, or me!”


 


Tiger Lily Ed


From Her Extremely Cruel Poem,


Shapeshifting Dog ED


 


 


 


Oh, how I’ve tried to block out these memories


But now she has posted them for all on AD to see


I guess since they say that all is fair in love and war


I may as well finish this sad story she started about me


 


Yes, it’s true ; all those many years ago I was shipwrecked


And somehow, barely alive, I washed up on the Isle of Capri


And yes, Tiger Lily Ed managed to nurse me back to health


Although I suffered from total amnesia, she cooed, “Marry Me!”


 


But without consulting me about who we should invite


She flew in my Jersey Devil Brother, to be Her Best Man


And now, in retrospect, as I think back on those Capri days


This must have all been part of her extremely diabolical plan


 


After the wedding ceremony was over, Jersey Devil Ed stayed on


I guess I always knew there was something going on between them


So ten years after my brother arrived for our wedding day ceremony


I sadly boarded my old ship and left Capri, never looking back again


 


And as you can see in this old picture, the day I sailed away, forever


Neither my brother nor my wife even glanced my way to say good-bye


At least faithful old Rufuz looks like he’s extremely sad to see me leave


And I guess I better just end this poem now, cause I think I’m gonna cry


 


Some people wonder why the War between the Ed Clan will never end


Giving Jersey Devil my wife, our dog, and the very lovely Isle of Capri


Should have been quite enough for both Jersey Devil and Tiger Lily Ed


And yet, they so very eagerly plot to take even Ed Island away from me


 


And I’m sorry this very sad tale had to be posted here in AD


 


But they started it…So very long ago


 


And I’m not putting this poem in my comic book,


It’s just too darn heart wrenching for kids to read.


 


I bet they made a fortune on the Villa, too…


 


 


…2007, An Extremely Sad Mr. Pee Wee Noah Ed

Edward, Edward, betrayed by a woman, so sad, but don't give up. This just can't be your ferocious air-conditioned Apache can it? Please tell us what to do. Out here we've begun raising war bonds for you. It's worked for us before. We supported Prince Edward in the can and Prince Edward on the can. I want to go on public record right now as supporting Pee Wee as the prettiest, fairest, most intelligemt, most talented, on and on ad nauseum Ed on planet earth, no rivals whatsoever. Besides that, he goes skinny dipping, and he reviews my stuff--what would I do without him? Hang in there bestest Ed...Jerry

You'll get yours you shapeshifting cheat, trying to get rid of me so more skirts you'll meet, making others feel sorry for you,spreading rumors of me and Jersey devil that are untrue...He is a gentleman unlike you, And to think my heart still goes out to you...I lament my tears all spent...

Ed, I still love you, and you know that. You have posted a very witty, yet poignant poem; I feel sadness dripping from your pen. Hope you are okay; you are in my prayers, buddy! Very well done; bravo! Love the pic!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :(

Oh dear... Perhaps Sir Paul and Heather Mills can give you some advice here, Dad. But to have your life saved is worth a pretty penny at the end of the day, no? Sounds like the classic tale of The Nurse getting her dues. Well, perhaps Rufuz might also like to take up on your Pee Wee Ark with some fellow animal shipmates as HIS recompense, now, too. Sounds like he might even be the best "nurse" to have around if that amnesia strikes again, and might even save your life a second time.... Ah the course of true love never did run smooth, that's for certain sure... High (in)Fidelity on the High Seas at High Noon... Could this be an ADULT version comic/caustic book? No doubt about it, family business is always the most messy... you just ask Willow... A lesson in steering clear of ralational Bermuda Triangles... love and commiserations, Kate xx
