I go to bed too late, The next day I tire easily, my fate, If I do get to heavens gate, Will I then be late as well, Will the keeper of the gate, wait…? Most of the time to myself I berate, I would rather relax and stay sedate, Instead I am always rushing, of affairs what a state, Seems I did learn this from my loving soul mate… After my morning shower I feel great, As the day wears on that feeling does abate, Perhaps though it is just the heat and my being overweight, I could be sold at auction as a complete estate…J © ed ~ 7/11/06

I could be sold at auction as a complete estate…

What's the opening bid? I could probably use a motor home, and, of course, I'd take good old Rufuz. Got any cookies??!!
