by carolynholm

Winston
Dear Winston,
Your song?
Love, Carolyn
Hey Mom,
The song you sing that is all about ME!!!!!
Winston
Dear Winston,
Ah, the crazy boy song from West Side Story. It IS about you!
Love, Carolyn
Mom,
I love it when you sing it.
Winston
Dear Winston,
I like it too. The words are perfect for you.
Hey boy, crazy boy!
Get cool boy!
Got a rocket
In your pocket
Keep coolly cool, boy!
You do your zoomies with a rocket in your pocket!
Love, Carolyn
Mom,
I have a question, though.
Winston
Dear Winston,
Ok, shoot.
Love, Carolyn
Mom,
Don’t say shoot! That’s scary!
Winston
Dear Winston,
I’m sorry, I didn’t think of that. So, what’s your question?
Love, Carolyn
Mom,
The song goes on to say
Don’t get hot
‘Cause man, you got
Some high time ahead
What are high times? Does that mean I’ll be climbing?
Winston
Dear Winston,
Who knows! Maybe! You’re a cat, and cats climb like ninjas.
Love, Carolyn
Mom,
But why does the song talk about dying?
Winston
Dear Winston,
Oh dear, you mean when it goes
Take it slow
And Daddy-o
You can live it up
And die in bed.
Don’t worry about that. It just means you will live a very long life.
Love, Carolyn
Mom,
I like the rocket in the pocket part better.
Winston
