Last night we had our annual "charter party" to celebrate the anniversary of the charter of the local Lions Club. I've been serving as the 2013-14 President.
The organizers decided to honor me with the following poem!
You've often heard of Parma glory
So listen close while I tell this story.
We have among our group tonight
A member who knows wrong from right
This member, says a local rumor
Has a wicked sense of humor
He is our leader for the year
Lion Mac come up here!
We knew in advance of his biker ways
He goes on long trips and enjoys his stays
We pictured in our minds a leather jacket
Helmet, shin guards, and quite a racket!
When we saw the bike and its regalia
We all said "blue?" what the hail-ya?
No self-respecting H Angel member
Would tolerate a royal blue fender.
The story goes down hill from here on
He now has a backwards tricycle to ride on.
Oh boomers, oh boomers, this is so sad.
How can a three-wheeler be "bad".
But this is the choice of our treasured talker
We hope we do not see the ride fitted with a walker.
He's had the stage for a year now, bless his soul
Punning us to death has been his year's goal.
Did you hear the one about the Finnish Lion?
He groaned us to tears without even tryin.
We are glad we did not have to eat Finnish food,
Turning down lutefisk would seem too rude.
But we are only funnin with our Lion Mac
He's always been cheerful and very laid back.
We salute him tonight with this gift of our thanks
And hope he will remember to stop all his pranks.
And the gift? See next post!
