Well I, we have had a good run,
At times, I must say, it was actually fun.
Yes Sean, I am proud of you two,
You made a difference and that is true.
Have a nice family too, there I,
Lacy, Leann, Lily, and Harlan,
The apple of my eye.
They have grown up strong in the faith,
But now that they are grown up,
They have moved away.
They have their own families now,
And don’t need us any more.
They are raising my grandchildren in the faith,
And we know that is a chore.
Yes son, you have had a good run,
Your job here on earth is done.
Your children are gone now and you two are alone,
Aren’t you ready now to come home?
I, thank you for that kind offer, and tempting as it may be,
I think we will stay a bit longer to watch my grandchildren grow up.
If that is okay with you Seina, it is okay with me.
I, I have to agree with Sean,
Going with you does sound heavenly,
But with my children and grandchildren,
Is where I long to be.
I understand your great love,
It is almost as the father’s above.
In that case I will let you stay,
But there will come that day,
When I will no longer have a say.
You will get old and ask to die,
But will have to wait for your appointed time.
If you go now, you will be together for all time,
If you wait, the decision won’t be mine.
We appreciate your Candor,
But we feel this is what we were put here for.
We just feel that is why we are here,
Come on, this is depressing, have another beer.
Okay, but make it a light,
I feel guilty about all those starving folks
And me having to diet.
Yeah, I know what you mean,
We keep pressing for more food to send overseas,
But get the runaround from the bureaucracies.
If it weren’t for the donations from everyone,
There wouldn’t be dollar one.
Maybe if you could touch a few hearts in Washington…
It wouldn’t help, their hearts are stone.
People recognize that it is a sin,
But they keep voting them back in.
I don’t know how much longer I can allay my fathers wrath,
Before he sends his angels to wreak a blood bath.
The end is growing ever near,
And he is getting really pissed, you hear.
Oops that is my pager, I have to be getting along,
Pop thinks I have said enough and had better get home.
Last chance for you to come on home,
If not, then I have to be gooooone.
Just love that guy don’t you Seina?
Yes, Sean. In my book he is a winner.
Well, let’s go in and call the kids,
All this talk and I started to miss
Hearing them on the phone,
Maybe we should get a webcam,
Then we won’t be so alone.
Sean you are a silly goose,
By the time you figured out how to use it,
Our great-grands would be in their terrible twos.
My love, you are probably right,
Let’s go in and make love until day light.
You old goat, I know you…soon as you hit the bed,
To all the world you will be dead.
Hee-hee-hee. It was worth a try.
To all our friends and readers…
Thank you for everything,
Good bye.
