And All of My Clothes are Salvation Armani !

I find that I pamper myself
with surround sound, and videos, and such;
even the stereo sound on my computer
I also enjoy, so very much !

I often shower quickly
but, do so love a long "rain",
long showers may take up time
but, they also diminish most the pain.

I cook spare-ribs on Thursdays
and I prepare them, just right...
my dentures are paid for
I'm still working on my sight.

I love performing music
I'm fortunate, in that regard,
I don't have a "back" one
but, I've a fence-in "front" yard.

I love both my cats
so, I spoil them...a bit,
I was given a recliner
for to lounge on, and sit.

I treat folks the way
that I'd like to be treated,
as well as greet them
the way I'd like to be greeted.

I try not to gossip or judge
it's difficult, at best...
and I hold close, my humor
when being put to the "test"!

My possessions are plentiful
though I've so little money,
and I dress sharp, because
my clothes are, Salvation Armani !
