ARE YOU WEARING A TOGA?

 

Are you wearing a toga?

I don’t want to be an ogre

But you’ll be a hit alright

At the house party tonight

As everyone will be knowing.

Because you will be showing

That beneath the flowing robes

You have unfettered globes

SUCCUMBING

 

Though a cool day

The spring sunshine,

Was hot through the glass

And combined with the wine

And an excellent lunch

It wouldn’t be long methinks

Before I slowly succumbed

To the long blinks

YOU ARE THE BONNIEST CHILD

 

You are the bonniest child

Cute from head to toe

You melt our hearts

As you joyfully go

For your first time

Out to play in the snow

WHATEVER FUTURE GIFTS

Whatever future gifts

That might make me glad

Or any from the past

Including when I was a lad

There is nothing to compare

To the gift of being a Dad

SPARE A THOUGHT

 

We live in a selfish world

We all think of “me and mine”

It’s perfectly natural, after all

Putting family first is fine

But just take a moment       

As you sit down to dine

To think of the hungry

And when the meal is done

Think of the homeless

And as you enjoy the family fun

With people who truly care

Think of those who have no one

I BUILT THE PERFECT SNOWMAN

 

I built the perfect snowman

Well, a snow-woman actually

She was a little disproportionate

But she was perfect to me

She was a little cold

But we could’ve been happy

 

I wrapped her in a blanked

And took her to my bed

In the morning I was hoping,

Though nothing was said

That we would make love

But I woke alone instead

And to make matters worst

One of us had wet the bed

SINCE THE BBC SACKED ALL THE DALEKS # 3

 

Since the BBC sacked all the Daleks

Most are just scrounging off the state

But there is one working at the Vatican

He doesn’t really communicate

And it scares a lot of the devout

When it says Excommunicate, Excommunicate
