I hope I die while laughing
Since my life has been a joke
I've laughed at life and pain and fear
(Most of my pain from Balladeer)

I pray that I die laughing
What a way to go
What other way would you expect
From a guy named "Toe"???

Perhaps drop dead up on a stage
With a touch from Bennie Hinn
Saves my soul by laying hands
Then drop dead without sin.

His touch is much like Mr. Spock's
A Vulcan's touch will do you in
Both are really science fiction
Spock and Bennie Hinn.

I hope that I die laughing
It will be my final plea
And when I go I hope and pray
That Bally goes with me.

Hmm, that makes sense! ~ You and Balladeer passing at the same time! Then you could entertain each other on the Other Side. Oh, but then we'd be losing two nuts with one stone, so to speak! I think it would be best for us, if you guys went one at a time!

What a treat to see you posting again! ~ and you delivered your humour with panache ~ as is to be expected of a big toe! lol

That would be a good way to go ... with or without Balladeer.

I hope you do too

I love to live smiling
and this poem contributed to
today's smile on my face.

I love to make people laugh
and I love to laugh really deep
from the belly kind of thing.

And I loved your poem.

I too hope that Toe dies laughing,
And that it's not for many years.
I hope that in the mean time,
He doesn't realize any fears.

But personally I hope that when he goes,
He leaves behind the Balladeer.
Unless of course he writes a eulogy,
In advance of when he disappears.

I hope it's after me that we lose Toe,
For life is much better when he's around.
I'm just telling he truth,
At least that's what I've found.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane,
I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

Let me tell you Toe, if you're listening to Benny Hinn and hoping to take Bally with you you've got buckley's. In case you don't know Buckley's is a shortened Australian expression that was originally Buckley's and Nunn.

a good commitee can decimate communication.

It is no laughing matter
that you would dare to go
and leave us here wishing
for more of the poetic show~

But if you must from us depart
I hope it is with a big guffaw
spewed forth from your heart~


LOL ... you kill me~

Now ... go see what Balladeer has to say !!
OH NO ... more laughter for the wake !!

I've no doubt you'll die laughing
Ever since you were born
You've done your best to put smiles
On all who're sad and mourn

You need no touch from Bennie
To assure where you'll go
For the Lord surely enjoys
His miracle named Toe

I know that you'll die laughing
With or without ole Deer
But please don't go anytime soon
We need both of you here!

It sure is good to see you posting, sweets... just take care of you and make sure your demise is at least 50 years away! *G*
