Just What Was Wrong
I look out my window,
I can see one small dove.
Once tried to forget
All the things that I love.
Kermit took a backseat
When he once rode shotgun.
Forgot all the fun times,
Thought those times were done.
The Rainbow Connection,
How truly inspired!
How sad that so many
Consider it expired.
I remember a time
Big Bird was my best friend.
Ernie and Bert
Were the perfect blend.
I felt all worn out,
I'd been laid out flat.
I'd felt so confused
Just like poor Uncle Matt.
And then one day
I started to think.
What could it be
That was making me sink?
Fozzie's too funny,
Gonzo's just weird.
Could it have been
The man with the beard?
No, I don't think so,
That's not what it was.
Jim Henson's death
Was not at present the cause.
No use sitting here,
Get back in the game.
They still make me laugh
And cry just the same.
The Muppets still dance,
The Fraggles still play.
"Squeet, squat, boink
And a perfect day!"
I couldn't believe it!
I was finally upbeat!
Felt like jumping for joy
With my two "happy feet"!
I knew every line,
Memorized every song.
But, wait... I remember now
Just what had been wrong.
These things brought me joy,
Happiness, mirth.
But still that empty feeling,
That lacking of worth.
The Muppets, all wonderful,
Had caused my heart to stir.
I knew what was wrong now,
It was no longer a blur.
As magical, as great,
As feathered, as furred,
I loved all the Muppets,
But they remind me of... her.
