Whoa, Rocket!

It was time for a get together,
Of the MaMaJuSaVi,
But confusion set in
And no one could see

How we would all find a date,
When we each fill our days
With singing and stretching
and little getaways

Who’ll bring the salad
will there be dessert?
Ma2 will be hostess
And Ma1 arrived first

With tiki torches lighting
The way to the back door
Who will be the one that
Won’t know what that’s for?

Ju is the smart one,
She’s sure to figure out
That the lights are the path
To get into the house

But Ma1 and SaVi
All found their way in
While Ju stumbled in darkness
Til redirection set in

There was meant to be food
Of the lasagna kind
But fear of e-coli
Put Ma2 in a bind

So the meatballs got trashed
With the homemade pasta sauce,
and fresh mozz, ciabetta and lemonchello
were boss!

The blabbing began
There was no time to waste
We must talk of our lives
And the hurdles we face

So we rambled through topics
And the wine flowed so well
That if you put them together,
Well, no one could tell

That we actually tackle
big stuff when we meet
like avoiding a ticket
or improving one’s “teet”

We need time to heal
From the loss in our lives
We need good pumpkin muffins
And smarts when we drive

Horses are cool
summers off are hot
And there was something about
A line and a dot

Spiked heels are not made
For walking, I’m told
And a babbling brook with a horse
Is too cold

The night was a riot
It was great spending time
so let’s plan for December
Cuz I’m done with this rhyme

Love you, ladies!
Whoa, Rocket!



Best quotes of the night:
“It’s just like Holy Communion”
“I need a boob job!”
“What were we thinking? It must’ve been the booze”

The comedy award for those golden quotes goes to Ma1.
