I Am Canadian (repost for Canada Day)

I am Canadian….
   I have no doubt that that is me.  

I am North American….
   I have a bigger family just south of me.  

I am of the Western world….
   I also have some friends just east of me.  

I am life on Planet Earth…..
   I love that all of you are here with me.  

I am of the Milky Way…..
   I often hope that this is not the only place.  

I am just a single man…..
   I dream of Love in the stars I see.  

I am here and wait for thee…
   I know your out there seeking me  

I Am Canadian….
   I have no doubt that that is me.

You are the sweet tease in my day
You are an adorable flirt in constant play
You are a poet who makes us ladies swoon and sway
You are P-man...and we wouldnt have it any other way


Happy Canada Day  

We're all feeding our lonely like it might go away,
Like the doors of heaven will swing wide open if we just find the right words to say.
