I Want to be Certified

I Want to be Certified
© 2017 by P Michael Biggs


I want to be certified.
Authentified,
Bona fide,
And live on the Westside

I like Dignified
Clarified
Fortified
But not cockeyed.


I’ll avoid calcified,
Cast aside,
Falsified
And horrified

And I’ll stay away from
Misapplied,
Mollified
Mummified,
And set aside.

I will sit ringside,
I like high tide,
I’ll sit inside
When it’s cold outside

But give me a big dose of
Come alongside,
Civic pride,
Justified,
And verified

Christmas is coming …
Here comes yuletide.
Our world will be beautified
And intensified
With sweet pies
And sleigh rides
And kids who spy
With eyes wide

What a perfect place to abide.
