Fan Base?

I am practicing on some songs for the singing,
To entertain all the ladies while dining.
Christmas carols they all know,
Even though we will have no snow.
I hope they will like the way I play,
I have worked so hard every day.
I like them all, those songs from the past, 
I know them by heart, whether slow or fast.
Pick one and I'll play it,
 Maybe I'll have to fake it.
But here is what really does it, 
All you need is 2 fingers,
One for rhythm is the ringer.
The other for melody, well maybe 3 fingers.
But when they get together on the Lowery,
You can really sound like an orchestra.
Wish you all could be here in December,
I'll do my best to please you.
 Good Night, and Good luck.

Ahhhh Turkey day at last

Twas turkey day in all Florida,
What a lovely sight to see.
All the stores were open,
Except for the one that we need.
WALMART was open as usual,
Kmart, and Penneys too.
But the one store that we yearned for,
Was closed and we said boo hoo.
What power decided to close it,
Was it all the way to the top,
Or just because some yokel,
 Decided himself to deny us,
 The one most wonderful treat,
Why in the world close our DQ,
They know ew just neede the best,
The one best way to finish the day,
 Was a thing with a curl on top.
Good evening and good luck,

If it looks like a guitar, and other good stuff, is it a guitar or art




It shines like glass, the wood it seems,
 to be almost 12 inches thick.
 The iridescence of the burls in any light
Oh how the pretty stuff gleems.,
 How much time did it take you ask in awe
  How much time it took for that grain to pop out
  To get that classy look,And that real deep shine to appear
  Burled cherry it seems to respond like a dream,
, Just rub, spit, rub, spit and rub some more.
I don't know where it came from, just a little tin of wax,
Cabinet wax it says,  right on the tin, it is amber in color,
and tough to spread thin, but keep on rubbing, when at last you've put on the last coating.
Then you look again and hear yourself say, "Just one more coat, then I'll be finished," RIGHT!!!! Let Me hear
 your comments,
Good night and Good luck

Good fortune or Smarts which will you take?

Well, we just do not know about life until it is almost over, and then it is too late.
   Success is ?
A great big house with many rooms,
No need for a path in the back.
Rep Tevya said it would need so many brooms,
The old blind man couldn't carry the stack.
The fiddler on the roof it is said,
Is a harbinger of an ill wind.
But I believe that crooked old man,
Plays about things that must end.
Just think of that old Stalin,
Nikita, and Molotov too,
Who did not heed the fiddlers story,
Now they drink the devils' brew.
So if you hear a man playing a tune on your roof,
You better hope his first name is Charlie,
With a Daniels after that so he can play and howl at the moon,all night, and run and play with the kids.
GOOD NIGHT and GOOD LUCK
