The fruit juice became so angry and fitful

Seems there was no more room, in the crystal

Because the oranges battled, to take their place

But instead, they wound up taking up space

All over the counter, and onto the floor

The fruit juice just couldn’t take anymore

It became so erratic, it had to be distilled

Now it sits in a pitcher, in the fridge, being chilled

Having a blast, flying through the trees

One of the cutest, that you’ll ever see

His mama can’t catch him, he’s having some fun

He’s much too quick for her, when he runs

He likes to spin, all around, in the jungle

Hanging on vines, he’s all rough and tumble

Always getting into mischief, such trouble, is he

How can anyone resist, this little monkey!

I couldn’t decide, what to put on my toast

So I grabbed all the jellies, the ones I like most

I layered the jams, into colorful lines

On top of some cream cheese, oh, so divine!

I truly wanted, to add another flavor

But, I ran out of space, so this, I will savor

Bite after bite, the taste is so sweet

Think I’ll make another, I deserve this treat

In the unlikely event, we collide

Pay attention, we’re the ones qualified

As a flight crew, we’re trained for the worst

Remember, woman and children go first

Seats and trays, in the upright position

As we embark, on the next lengthy mission

Should turbulence rock this ship

It’s quite possibly, your very last trip

We suggest, if you want to stay alive

Grab a parachute and out the door, dive

Pray very hard, for a nice easy landing

Enjoy the flight, we hope it’s outstanding

Platinum rockets outshine the night

Setting on fire, this battle of wills

Radioactive, they tarnish the skies

Feeling nothing, only out for the kill

Men, women, children, die horrible deaths

Tragedy strikes, not so unexpected

War torn and ravished, faraway lands

Unable to fight back, quite unprotected

Peace needs a place, to call its home

An Earthly portal, to welcome all

Three nations together, cannot do it alone

For when evil wins, the mighty will fall

 

My thoughts and prayers go out to the people of Syria, and to the men and women of our armed forces, along side France and Great Britain.  May God watch over them…
