Duke of the uke, or: Patsy

Luke Glueck was the Duke of the uke;
he’d get drunk and twang like a kook.
His drinking and juking drew rebuke,
cuz every damn’d night he would puke
and collapse on the floor, his brain nuked.
It’s no wonder Luke always got rooked!

1. Ha… what a hoot… but I wouldn’t like to wake up like that.

   1. Yeah, you need to know when to cut yourself off! Or… at least your friends need to!

      1. I am glad to hear it David. Things are starting to seem more normal again here too. If you are fully vaccinated you can go without a mask. Some places still prefer masks are worn. We do which ever the sign says. We have no problems following the business owners preferences. We have a wise Dr. friend who I see as an old soul. He is gifted in so many ways. Makes beautiful furniture raises fungi and other vegetables and is always helping others. When this virus hit I asked him, “What do you think will end up being the main thing we will all remember?” He quickly explained that all of us will have someone that we love or know that will die. We had two dear friend that lost siblings and my husband who is younger than me by a decade lost his mother. His dad is doing better and so he is too. We are both well and celebrated our 25th wedding Anniversary on July 13th.

         Hope you and your sweet family is blessed and happy. A child is such a wonderful gift from God.
         Love ❤️ Joni

            I had no idea, Joni! I’m deeply sorry for your losses.

            But I’m glad that you sound positive on the whole!
