Robyn & Eric

She studies bones and muscles
I know that’s pretty vague                                        
This girl from Waterloo, who
Was born as Robyn Haig.
                                                                                                                               
She’s pretty, fit and nifty,
At softball, she’s an ace,
To Wayne State University
This game won her a place.
                                                                                                
While there, she met her Eric,
A young Toledo guy,
Quite soon it was realized that
By her, he’d aye stand by.

 Now Eric, is a sportsman,             
 A game of golf, enjoys,
 But when it comes to Robyn
 He’ll put away his toys.

 And so the date for marriage,
 June twenty seventh, set,
 Where, at the Detroit Yacht Club,
 These two, form one duet.

 It’s been a grand occurrence
 Five maidens for the bride,
 All radiant in fuchsia
 And standing by her side.

 She studies bones and muscles,
 So it would just be right,
 The place she was proposed to
 Was ‘Fishbones’, in Detroit

 So when she starts employment
 As an osteopathic,
 The name above her door will
 Be Robyn Kirkpatrick

 We send congratulations,
 Had not planned to attend,
 From nan and pompa Perkins,
 Your neighbour and your friend..

That's a very good question / They LOVED me./ Night after Christmas

        Look for Dan, Similar style to me. I will give the title of this ode at the end & you'll understand why, when you hear it. One phrase I've noticed past few years, Which irks me to extreme, Is heard in MANY interviews On media, it does seem. When being asked some questions, To information, give, Instead of starting th'answer off, This phrase, repeated, is. The first few times 'twas novel, But aft. a while, does tire, I feel like stretching out my hand, It sure does produce 'ire' It's heard also in general chat, In public, private too, Wherever folk do congregate  Or cause hullabaloo. It may be said on impulse, To have few seconds more, In order to form answer, For me, it irks, hearts, core. Of course it's a good question, Why ever ask one, bad ? Just give an answer to what's asked, Try not, to make me mad.(der) So what is it that irks me, That causes such aggression, That makes my teeth just grate with rage? Well, '' That's a v...

Murphy, in the morning, and through the decades.

Murphy, in the morning and through                             the decades. A 'Newfie' and 'New Scotian'  Their life paths, they did meet, 'Way back, in the '40's Soon, patter of tiny feet. A daughter, followed by two sons, Then "itchy feet" did get,  So westward they did venture, Ontario, their target. In Hamilton they settled down, "New House - new family" Our Patrick; then came Kathy, Two girls, - and boys? - now three.

( "How now brown cow" what? what? ) Traffic updates, - summer job, At CHML's studio, First 'full time' job, broadcasting, Way down there, in Simcoe. 'Twas there he had a 'life change', A "NEW LIFE" guaranteed, Paul Fletcher guided him, straight path, Soon grown, that planted seed. With CHYM, followed by FAITH FM, His dulcet t...

To Know, Know, Know Him. {song}

To know, know, know Him, Is to love, love, love Him, Just to walk His way, In His will, to stay, Yes. to know, know, know Him, Is to love, love, love Him, And I do, yes I do, do you? When He died for me, On that cruel tree, He endured such agony Just so He could set me free, He rose again triumphantly And He lives in Heav'n eternally, He wants you and me there too. Why can't men see How vast His love be? Some day He'll return To take His own to Glory. To know, really know Him, Is to love, truly love Him Live for Him each day, In His will, obey, Yes to know, know, know Him, Is to love, love, love Him And I know, He loves you too.                                                                                       ...
