Senile City...

Rufuz and I went to the beach today after a dental appt and we did our laundry...big deal for the first day of my vacation week...BUT I DIDN'T HAVE TO WORK!!!


Poem Artwork


 

My home town of Sea Isle city,

In its humorous guise,

The bus drivers from school,

Used to make us laugh like a fool,

This is where I first saw the sun rise…

 

Tis’ my special place,

Times have changed,

But never the pace,

Though far & wide I have ranged,

Of my home town I do embrace…

 

My town has grown,

From there a lot of us have flown,

Now I go back there to be alone,

To the gods I do there atone…

From your title, I thought this was a poem about your age, not your home town.

Wishing you a nice vacation in both Senile City and Sea Isle City, Brother!
