The Good Girls, The Wonderful Life
written by: Robert Allen Beckvall
Shoes drop on the lanai, after a day of teaching, coaching, mentoring
Or, just forgetting a bad one
A good wife made my lunch
A good girl did her homework
A good partner put the ball away
A good island warmed my soul with sunshine and ocean spray
If I didn’t listen, read, or debate the government bully bastards
I would just think:
What a simple, little, wonderful life I have
On dates with my wife
Or, a kid to the heights
Says I:
“You can’t fool me, it is a wonderful life.”

I live on island, married to and birthed Chinese ladies (I give my wife full credit for the heaviest pushing), published in newspapers, and other varied mediums to include the Arizona State University archives, champion tennis player, former soldier, teacher, coach, and volunteer.
