A problem I have
A solution I don’t
At forty years old Star Wars I have not
Watched a single movie, cartoon or series
What’s wrong with this man
Sense do I have
I must say I think not
There comes a time
When you admit you are wrong
The movies I must
Watch at home all alone
And cry in my pillow
At all that I missed
And the May 4th hoopla
That I always dismiss
Ask I must is something off
Yes they say with a hiss
I guess I will break down and watch them all now
The question is what order I say with a bow
Of my head because I know how this must look
The biggest of series in my life I mistook
For something that was just for nerds and for geeks
Somebody slap me right on the cheek

Feelings Never Die
It is Valentine's Day again, and it bought back memories that were over fifty years old. It bought me back to 1971, and I woke up and I knew my baby was due today. I was big and pregnant, and I felt like I was about to burst wide open. Imagine my surprise when the doctor told my I had a due date of February 14. I couldn't believe it, and since my baby was due today, I felt I could indulge myself a bit. I had gained a lot of weight, and chocolate was on the no-no list, but I had came to the end of this pregnancy, and I hoped it would be okay, after all I would deliver this baby today. So I walked across the street to the grocery story, and bought myself, a peppermint patty, covered in chocolate, my favorite. Me and my Valentine's baby would enjoy it together.
