Blame it On the Musicals spoon fed from baby's age of love songs written for the stage from Camelot to Music Man tunes that led me to dreams of grand Flower Drum Song led me along Sound of Music on hills where I belong I wanted the romance and the leading man or be Shirley and do a wild can-can have Quixote dreams and peppermint sighs a leading man easy on the eyes be the lady in satin or silk and travel to lands of honey and milk an Exodus for me and you and Pygmalion's schemes, one or two a dance with Gene in long away Brigadoon fantasies in Xanadu carry me along to you so if you hear me humming away you'll know right off I was brought up this way…. |

I see that you're a lady of refinement The way you write your verses say a lot You make it clear what each and every line meant.. Thanksalot! Your poetry is upbeat and uplifting On days I need a break it hits the spot So please accept my thanks for all your gifting.. Thanksalot! Thanksalot! Thanksalot! I love each sentence that you write. Thanksalot! Thanksalot! It fills me with delight. I, too, love all the showtunes that you speak of I love the wondrous lyrics they've all got For all the beauty that you give a peek of.. THANKS A LOT!! I took the road less traveled..now where the hell AM I??? |

Balladeer, an interesting reprise, I do admit, and one that left a smile...thank you... Martie, me too, right back at you...thank you! Ms. Marie - sassy I am not...unless it's that "good" sassy that some of us can be...thank you! Thank you Kit! Bernie - age is a good thing, and much better than the alternative. Sven - okay.... |

Well, suthern...they didn't kick you out after all that humming, now did they...in fact, you probably brightened their day... Xanadu is a marvelous place, is it not, PoeticKnight...thank you! |
