Sweet Samoa

FACE OF THE WEEK

SWEET SAMOA

She was waiting in the wings to sing her song;

We were waiting in the wings to do our bit.

With Samoan music playing

She would do a lot of swaying,

While we were there to act a little skit.

*

Her smiling face lit up the curtained stage

And her movements, when she danced, were full of grace.

Though not too young, it's truthful,

All her movements were so youthful

That they matched the sweet expression on her face.

*

Ours was a meeting that was very brief;

Ships passing in the night, that sort of thing,

But it's funny how we treasure

Little moments of such pleasure.

Say 'Samoa' to me and I hear her sing.

GIVE ME A HAND!

Elvis Presley sang about a 'Wooden Heart'
But he never mentioned any other part!
Carried to its logical conclusion
Maybe other body parts deserved inclusion!
Entirely wooden bodies, not just hearts!
How simple, then, would be 'replacement parts.'!
The surgeon, with a nut, a bolt, a screw
Could make a body quite as good as new!
And everyone around would understand
When the surgeon said to staff  'Give me a hand.'
