My New Den Picture…

Looking like a drunk off of skid row,

My new picture seems to definitely show,

Please understand, it was raining & windy, a very big blow,

Hat kept blowing in the wind; Rufuz would chase it,

To the waters edge, then daddy had to wait till it floated,

In on the next wave, and had to the water, shake off,

No, Rufuz this is not a toy for you; don’t you at me, scoff!

That thing that looks like a cape, yes it is my caped crusader one,

No really, it is a duster type raincoat; I love that coat,

Rene’ bought it for me, I have almost worn it out,

Snaps are rusted, zipper broke, it gets worn all the time…

Quite frankly in rain and or shine…

My dark glasses on as the sun did shine through, every now & then,

Just another weird old man, walking the beach, taking pictures,

Hopefully you don’t take that picture to be the real me,

As I really do look better most of the time,

Just ask the love of my life, the one who knows, Rene’…
