Ta-da!
Also known as
Heureka! from that Greek
when bathing with his rubber marble duck.
Bingo!
I totally take back all those times I didn't want to nap when I was younger. (Anon)

Bingo.
That was his name.
His master owned a farm.
It wasn't Old MacDonald's place,
I'm told.

you cannot find
the answer in a dream
I'm hoping it's not a nightmare
for us
I'm not lost for I know where I am. But however, where I am may be lost. Winnie-the-Pooh

I thought I was
Wrong, but it turned out that
I was right about everything
But you.

When it is cold outside
I have for me the month of May.

My girl,
Don't lie to me.
Tell me, where did you sleep,
Whose pillow did you rest upon
Last night?

I lay me down
To sleep the sleep of God
But Heaven left my side for Hell
Alas!

Shadow
A sunshine friend
Disappears in darkness
Pops back once the lights are on in
Your life.
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

For the strength to move on…
But the things that kept me going
Are late.

I suppose it depends
Whether you are a late riser.
I am.
