It only tickles when you do it.

It Only Tickles When You Do It


I revel in days of abiding great joy
Bestowed upon me by that one little boy
Well it's true that it smarts when he shouts in my ears
But the silence hurt more before he was here

Well he laughs til he cries as we flail on the floor
And he pleads with me "Stop!"
though he knows there'll be more
With an innocent whimsy he hasn't lost yet
Then he leads me to wisdom I'll never forget
When he says "Now daddy, you tickle yourself"
And I says "If I could I'd get to it
But it only tickles when you do it"


Now that my bonnie boy has grown inte a man
I am left all alone here with these idle hands
So they reach up to You who've been Father to me
And they're craving the joy that Your touch always means
I say this in not the most reverent terms
And pray You won't misconstrue it
But it only tickles when you do it


....and then the Lord speaks.... :
"I am God, I am happy in heavens above
I've had eons and ages of Myself to love
Still I found it amsuing to see Adam come
And the earth did seem greener, and brighter the sun
Well I may try to hide this from even Myself
But clearly you always knew it
That it only tickles when you do it
Yes it only tickles when you do it"

First and foremost.

This is my spin-off blog.

I realized I was writing in Italian a lot on my other blog, and neglecting my English, so much so that I've decided to create another blog. Even though both blogs will probably have mixed languages, I'll try to keep this one mainly in English and the other one mainly in Italian.
Plus, I wanted to experiment with a new template, but I didn't want to take the chance of losing all I had on the other blog.

So here I am, with a brand new baby blog.
And, as you can see, it's a girl..

Welcome and see you at my next post!
