I Am What I Am Sometimes I act like a chesh-ire cat Spitting stories illegally fat. Philosophies from out the pines With peanut butter and jelly lines. I'm a chesh-ire cat in a bind And sizing up your lovely mind Winking in viability. Undressing gullibility. Some times I'm seen sometimes I'm not It really doesn't mean allot. I'm testing fallibility. I do have that ability I'm always winking out of sight I'm really a misguided knight. But I am wrong, I'm never that I'm really just a chesh-ire cat I see the questions on your face And this is not the time or place For I don't care the why or where As long as you and I can spare. A laugh, a nod, a loud guffaw and If you stroke me, I'll babble more. |

Where's the looking glass! Loved this, how original. "If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day, so I never have to live without you." Winnie the Pooh |

Nan, I'd tiptoe through your common ground But your common ground is quite profound. *L* Sy JM, If peanut butter and jelly be your key Then have some tea of my potpourri. It would make you dream of chesh-ire cat MEOW, MEOW and that would be that. *L* Sy Karilea, Your hand to stroke my pate is kind But I'm afraid no hair you would find. *L* Sy Irish, And some potpourri tea to you too. *L* Sy |
