Operation Rob

As you face adversity it is still about us;

If you had half a brain you would be dangerous.

Sure, roll the dice. Put a hotel on Baltic Avenue;

Hopes and prayers are always with you.

Collect $200 as you pass GO;

You can’t expect to win. This you already know.

FREE Parking, take a rest;

CHANCE card says cash in. You are the best.

Those incredible dragons on the spot;

It doesn’t take a genius to see they love you a lot.

Tokens, play money, moving space to space;

The game is the thing. Find your place.

The edge water compound is a shared context;

We get older and wonder what will be next.

It has always been as clear as day;

We started.  We continue to play.

Upon reflection we can see;

Living, loving. finding joy, destiny.

The action in an instant --- in a blink

It happens so fast --- no time to think

 

Count the money. Count the things.

Count the Blessings that your family brings.

Who owns BOARDWALK and PARK PLACE?

No matter. Tomorrow maybe you win at Crazy Eights.

Alive and well as one can plainly see;

In the home of the brave and the land of the free

Who cares who gets to boast?

Isn’t it just the little things that matter most? 

P.S. Happy Birthday Rob - August 30
