Oh, once upon a time,
Across an azure sea,
There lived a princely rag,
His name was Toe, you see.

Each morning he would wrap himself,
In rags of rich, fine linen,
Half his day was as a saint,
~ the other half was sinnin'!

Who is this man of witty charm,
Whose horn is full of plenty,
Methinks he is a mystery man,
Whose thoughts I'd give ten penny!
+*+*+

Get well soon! We'll keep the home fires burning.

Yes, he is a funny toe, I mean, "man"! He is having a health crisis right now (see above link) and when he is back to reading poetry again, I thought this bit of humor would help perk him up!

(big hugggsssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, Toerag is such a special friend to every one of us and I sure hope he recovers real soon as I know this will bring a big smile to his face and have him leap out of bed with his humorous smile again! (kiss on cheek) This is touching, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Linda, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Ratleader ~

Thank  you! He enjoyed it when I first wrote it for him, but he said that he was disappointed that I'd only pay a penny for his thoughts! lol So, I have changed it to "ten penny"!--inflation!

Thanks for the repost. Sorry to hear ole Toe
is under the weather. Miss is badness.
Tell ole Toe not to pinch the nurses cause they have BIG NEEDLES and CATHETERS.....LOL
Just as he is about to walk out the door then he can pinch.
Sending love and prayers from Ohio.

EA, he has folks praying for his recovery worldwide now, as I a minister, and those I worship with are also keeping him in their prayers.  he will be back with us soon, as I think God enjoys his great sense of humour, and knows how much we all need this special man. ~S~

Accept these small gifts from my gypsy heart  ~~S~~

He's alive! He's alive! lol Gosh, you really had us all scared! Nothing like some high drama to make us appreciate you even more!

Funny that you should say that, because I am a nurse!--and I love giving needles! The bigger the better! --and I like getting my bottom pinched! LOL

Seriously speaking, whenever I have given injections, I'm the one who says "Ouch!" That amuses patients so much that they don't feel any pain! lol
