Happy days are here again.
The economy is rebounding.
Or is it?
I'm afraid
it's all smoke and mirrors
and soon we'll discover
who the wizard really is.
When the happy little tune
stops playing,
someone will be without a seat.
Hope it's not us.

I understand your doubts, dear Ida!

This is indeed a significant write about a dramatic topic.

Love,

I think the change we're going to get is like changing a diaper (with the same results)

Ida,

This all reminds me of the old cake walks - maybe you'll get the cake or maybe you'll just get your toes stepped on.

I misread your line:

"and soon we'll discover
who the wizard really is"

I thought it said 'lizard' instead of 'wizard'

thinking about it, maybe that would be appropriate...nice write

Yo dear Ida,

This works rather well. We'll see what happens, that's for sure.
