Cr A z Y Aunt Jeri

I heard it said again

just the other day

"there's crazy aunt Jeri"

and my head began to sway.

Harm I will never cause

not to anyone,

My heart is full of lots of love

I do kind things for everyone.

I've always walked the extra mile

to comfort and let you know

that you're all very special

never giving up when things went wrong.

So what's with the crazy Jeri?

I simply want to ask

Many many years ago

I could simply laugh.

Yet, some how through all the years

the laughter just won't come

Sometimes teasing may be fun

But it can drag a spirit down.

Sometimes being sarcastic

is the last thing one should do

Especially when I do my best

in little ways that says, "I love you."

Somewhere along the way

your little games became

a very, very hurtful thing

I just want to stay away.

Sometimes I act a little strange

Maybe

I just want to have some fun

To lift the serious drag of life

planting sunshine in the mud.
