Stealing his show...



Wee Fiction

Steal the Show. Free to do so.
on April 30, 2024

Plane brought some jetlag

Flopped in hotel room.

Night 6 in a three week tour

Across the States and

Western Canada.

Missing family and

Chores needing doing.

Jesus pursuing in song.

Nothing wrong

With this effort.



Throat  little ticklish.

Mom had given him

Some syrup. Smith Brothers.

Would do the trick.

No time to be sick.



Bunches out there

Wanted it.

Needed it.

Praise to the

Most High God.

And His Son..



Go ahead God.

Steal my show.

Toby exited for

Arrangements with the Crew.

And Mom was present

For this one. Special seat.
