(This is simply a song parody relating to the event yesterday where a mental giant paid $28,000.00 for a sliceof pizza said to have the face of the virgin Mary on it. It's not meant to be sacriligeous in any way so don't go there! The original song was entitled That's Amore, sung by Dean Martin so you have to be an old fogey to recognize it!!)
.
.
When her face hits your eye
On a big pizza pie -
That's our Mary!
When the placement of cheese
Makes you fall to your knees -
That's our Mary!



Ain't it nice
That a slice
Could entice
Such a vision so holy?
Who can know?
Maybe Joe
Will appear on a plate
Of canoli?!?!

    


Watch them pay
On E-Bay
Just 'cause they hear me say
That's our Mary!
When the light
Hits it right
You can see Her eyes shining with love..



'Mid the mushrooms and peppers,
Anchovies and sliced pepperoni
See her smile and beguile
With a Poppa John style..
That's our Mary!!

So I'm an old Fogey, and certainly appreciative that a chewed on piece of grilled cheese sandwich could get your juices flowing again, Sir!

Now your poem is truly funny!  I was going to put a link to the casino, where there are pictures but changed my mind and thought I best leave well enough alone.   I have to say though, to see a casino capitalize on the Virgin Mary and sell "Grilled Mary" t-shirts for $19.99 and call it pop art - well, that puts it right up there in second place with my current "go get them project" today.  I have to tell you she looks a lot like my cousin Merle though Mike.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.
