The Great 20th Annual....... For Charity

Lorna



Bought a lottery ticket yesterday

From a nice old man

The Great Pootatuck Duck Race Raffle

To benefit various Lions Club charities

Only $5

And did I know

I could go to my phone

And scan their thingamajig

To pay online

But I said to him

No thanks

I'd rather pay to win

Your chuckle in real time

And see the laugh lines 

On your face

For the honor of losing (again)

The great Pootatuck Duck Race

    I'm with Neil here, Lorna I respectfully suggest you leave their thingamajig strictly alone . While your overflowing inbox might make you feel very wanted, these relationships are superficial and can only lead to successive blows to your self esteem when they turn out to be devoid of depth...... or something., blah blah...Your very own Agony Uncle.

      "Agony Uncle" - I love the nickname. Yes, devoid of depth so that if you dive in you break your neck.......

      a fun read,
      a good deed,
      thanks for sharing
