Dear Editor

Ode to Stephen (or Requiem)

 

When one becomes 90 years old,

It is time to behave I am told,

To sit in a chair,

I just couldn’t bear,

The very idea leaves me cold!

 

So I promise I’ll do what I can

To right a few wrongs is my plan

I’ll take aim at Harper

We need someone sharper

He must go and the rest of his clan.

 

His ego is a real disaster

His MPs know he’s the master

They’re ever so meek

And don’t dare speak

So they’ll get to the Senate much faster.

 

Come October we’re going to get even

We’ll vote to dispose of Stephen

It’s time for a change

So this we’ll arrange

So we can live happily ever after.

 

Betty Griffin, Burnaby
