No post today

Not even for pay,
The world is gone,
Nothing to say.

Friday

Thank crunchie it's Friday,
Thank heavens for wine,
Got lost in the chocolate,
Ain't Fridays divine!

Here Comes Christmas

Here comes Christmas!

It's time to hit
The credit cards;
'We'll pay it back,
It won't be hard',
As long as
Nothing changes
And the company
Don't reduce
Our wages.

But,
Family...matters.

All that buying,
Weeks of lying,
Childrens tears now
Gently drying,
Please Amanda,
No more crying!

Then,
Parents watching,
Proudly preening,
'For the children',
'Til the evening;
As
Seasons Greetings
Now defeating
Happy faces;
Frown replaces,
Beaming
Smiles.
It's been a while,
Since parents
Dreamed of
Childish things;
But then
Nostalgia
Creeps on in.
Swift and sure
With Gentle eddies,
Whistful memories,
Raw as berries.

'Remember 1974
You pushed our Sandra
Out the door!'

And time
Retreats
As history wins...

And next year,
It'll win again.

Today


Today
Was a day,
What a day,
Just A Day,
And my life
Rolled away,
Rolled away
In a day.

Are you OK by the Green Flare

I wonder how you are today,
I do hope everything's OK?
Only,
I haven't seen you out to play,
Since last Tuesday week.

There's a lot of coughs and colds about.
I've suffered both without a doubt,
Perhaps that's why you've not been out?
I hope that's all it is.

I wonder when you might be back.
To meet up on the old dirt track.
Just you, me, Billy oh, and Jack.
I do hope you're OK!

Pants

Nobody
Should 
Ever be,
At sea
Without 
Their 
Pants.

Unless 
They're 
Going
On holiday,
Down
To 
The 
South
Of 
France.
