Standing on their stilts so small Each carved from the tooth-pick tree N'er to worry they'll not fall Scurrying they circle me Each carved from the tooth-pick tree In the land of make-believe Scurrying they circle me Things my mind just can't concieve In the land of make believe Little picnic figures dance Things my mind just can't concieve Act in concert to entrance Little picnic figures dance Like Barishnikov's ballet Act in concert to entrance Swift their movements will convey Like Barishnikov's ballet As the final curtain calls Swift their movements will convey Taking that for which gave all As the final curtain calls N'er to worry they'll not fall Taking that for which gave all Standing on their stilts so small ( Happy New Year To You All !)

Wow! Wonderful Doc! I've gone back and studied your lines ... you made this look so easy, but my gosh ... an acrostic too?! What an incredible display of talent, it flowed so well, much enjoyed!  Best wishes, /Kit |

ethome , Mark , Hey , thanks ! But I cheat ! Now it's time to give back . Touch the screen . Believe . Send me money . Buy aluminum siding . Dance as one possessed . Regale your-selves in the New Year and be as one with the infinite meaning of abstract thought . Throw your-selves into the moment . Reach out-side the realm of your mortal existence. Cater to none. Portray your dreams as reality . Embrace the totality that is you . Tune in later. Full details at 11:00 |
