Time will Tell
by Frank Denton, the Country Poet
October 9, 1999
|
Friends think I’m crazy,
To believe at my age,
I can out of the blue,
Walk up on a stage,
Pick up a ‘mike,
And expect some applause;
When I ask ‘em “why not?”
All they say is “because.”
That makes no more sense,
Than what I am doing!
At least I’m invited,
And nobody’s booin’.
My friends keep on sayin’,
What I should have done,
While I’m up here tryin’,
To help folks have fun.
I do sometimes wonder,
How it all came about.
I have no great talent,
Or political clout.
Let my critical friends,
Just bad mouth themselves;
And crawl back up on,
Their “do nothin” shelves!
So, with your permission,
I’ll make up some stuff,
Then with fear and trembling..
Just hope it’s enough,
To help you unwind,
And have a good time,
Forget your own problems,
While you’re laughin’ at mine!
