No Family

No family have I got, except the family herein and Rufuz and Rene', beyond that no one to mention that is worth the effort...

No family have I got,


Other than Rufuz & Rene’


No blood relatives, no really, NOT,


 


No family have I got,


No really a single one not,


Guess I am just an old sot,


 


No family have I got,


I am happy this is the case,


Otherwise I would have to spray them with mace,


 


No family have I got,


That is of course my personal lot,


From the family I did know, I am closer to my snot,


 


No family have I got,


When the time comes for me to get a yacht,


The only “family” that will come aboard will be Scott,


 


No family have I got,


Guess that is all for this plot,


Hope I have not anyone or anything forgot…?

I love the ocean...and was born only a few miles from it...
in Brooklyn. I'm pouting with Turbo...and envy you the salt
on your toes and the sea wind in your hair.

You sure did forget someone - Rufuz's cousin - Turbo. And poor Turbo cannot believe that he will not be invited on the yacht. He's pouting under the bed right now.

I am much closer to people whom I've never met in person than some of my own siblings. So I guess I can relate here, Ed. Love and peace to you. Regis
