BC's Wizard of Oz


I've seen the tin man in here
and I've seen a lion or two,
And scarecrows as they come and go...
there's more than just a few.

I've seen the trees that throw apples at us
and always make a fuss,
They come and go whenever they please
and seem always in a rush.

I've seen a few Glenda's in BC too...
who wave their magic wand through grace,
And when they touch me on the shoulder
they make my world a better place.

I've seen a few of the lollipop
that make their way through here,
And when their candy bag is empty ....
they quickly disappear.

Sometimes I feel like Dorothy,
I want to click my heels and go away
but an inner voice beckons me sweetly,
and brings me back for one more day.

That BC witch that flys in and out...
the one that goes by TAF,
She strives to make the world a better place
and will try hard to make you laugh.

That yellow brick road can be bitter sweet
as it leads me here to chat again,
But if you take the path of prayer and love
you can always make a friend.

Some of us have found our way...
and know that Christ is the man of Oz,
We put our faith in him and trust
cause it's for a worthwhile cause.

That Christ is like the Oz we seek
to give us the things we lack ...
It's that thread that holds us all together
and keeps us coming back.

God bless you all.

Lol, believe it or not, I was the tinman before I bought this old house I'm in, and have been painting it green like the emerald city. I toyed with the idea of painting yellow bricks on the sidewalk out front, but have a hunch the city and the historical committee will nix that idea...
Great post

Taffy - I almost got taken out by a winged monkey in the tagalog room one night. Hopefully you will find someone goofy like yourself to travel down the road and seek the great and mighty oz with.

(and your little dog too!)
