SCYLLA

 

Scylla of Greek myth

Great monster of the sea

Terror of the seas

A fearful monster

The scourge of sailors

Believed in later times,

Scylla was thought

To be a rock in the

Straits of Messina

I LOVE ANAGRAMS # 12

 

I love anagrams

Anagrams are great

Some are funny

Some have flair

For example

Astronomer = moon starer

DEAR FRIEND # 3

 

Dear friend the miracle of friendship

Dwells within your heart

Whether we’re in each others company

Or we are far apart

OUT LIKE A LIGHT

 

I can remember like yesterday

So fearful of the dark night

My boy wouldn’t sleep a wink

Without the comfort of a light

Now he’s a teenage boy

He’s fearless and stays out all night

MIDDLE AGED SEAT

 

I’m in my middle years now

And my new car is a wow

It’s fast, new and sporty

Just the opposite of me

It is sleekly lined

With its curves well defined

It has a nice interior

The leather is quite superior

My only complaint would be

The bucket seats you see

As they are made to the design

Of a smaller bucket than mine

MONEY CAN'T BUY HAPPINESS

 

Money can't buy happiness

That is almost definitely so

But it’s more comfortable to cry

In a mansion than a bungalow

SENIOR JOINTS

 

If after the age of sixty years

I think this is safely said

And you don't wake up aching in every joint

You are almost certainly dead
