Why did you use ALL CAPS when you said goodbye to me oh no
I hope I'm not conceiving the feeling you aren't sending oh no

When we meet again or we talk on the phone.  I will see you forgot the winky face.
I was misreading your feelings all along.  Next time don't forget my winky face.

Just what are you trying to convey?
Must it break my heart along the way?

You really put that troll in his place.
So I'm sending you this happy face.
And a cartoon picture of a white gloved high five.
The world will survive and breathe a heavy sigh...
We're all still alive...
Thank you for posting your winky face.

When I lived right outside Kansas City, I would often take the dog for an evening walk to the playground of Belinder Elementary School, two blocks from home. I'd let Topsy run free and, sometimes, I'd sit on the grassy slope below the gymnasium and play my banjo. This is a tune I came up with on a warm summer night. I'm sure it's just bits and pieces of other tunes, but don't they all sound alike anyway? ;-)

See exciting video footage of this tune being played here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uiZwL5zewZ4

The banjo is tuned low (f-Bb-F-Bb-C) and strung with heavier-than-usual strings. I'm enjoying the sound of it these days.
