Ursula:
At one time it really was true
My wages were great – whoo hoo!
But now I’m on pension
So no need to mention
My salary now makes me blue.
But I’m a lucky woman indeed.
I’ve money enough for my needs.
Two eineklach fine
I’m so happy they’re mine
And can still give Tzedakah – its my creed.
The poetry, its just for fun.
It makes me proud when I’ve done
A thank you or invite
In meter thats just right
On every topic under the sun.
Way back when I was employed
I had a job I enjoyed.
I worked hard as a nurse,
But it did fill my purse.
And with words, I have always toyed.
