It’s In The Bag

tonight I finally
figured it out
the feeling I have
when I am with you
it is the same one
I use to have on
Halloween night
when I poured
out my bag
and saw all
the great things
inside

I thought this was going to be about one of your traffic stops?.....'It's in the bag"....yea, I've had cops ask me what's in my "bag" before....they have no sense of humor sometimes....but of course, you do...(and you have so much more too)......

It must be very exciting to have that feeling. I enjoyed your lines, as always, Helen!

If you're not yourself, then there is no you.

You obviously take Halloween very seriously

I'm still tipping the bag out but I get nothing like that

Enjoyed this
