SWING

I’m in the motor trade and I’ll try anything once

So I went to one of those swingers parties 

I took the wife along and she was well keen

She’s a good looker when she’s dressed up tarty

 

But after I dropped my car keys in the bowl

I realised that I had really dropped a clanger

As I’d arrived at the party with the latest model

But I went home with an old banger

GOOD JOB SON

 

My son got a job today

At a bowling establishment

“Ten pin” I asked him

“Oh no” he said “it’s permanent”

FEVERISH ONCE MORE

 

That medical catastrophe

The flu pandemic

Is not as bad as expected

It’s not even an epidemic

A large number of reported cases

On closer examination

Were found to have been

In contact with evergreen vegetation

This is a totally different strain

Of contagious flu

Which the W.H.O.

Has been renamed Pine flu

A TIMELY REFLECTION

 

I am feeling my age

Now I’m of the silver haired class

But on the bright side

I’m still on the right side of the grass

FEVERISH MORE AND MORE

 

That medical catastrophe

The flu pandemic

Is not as bad as expected

It’s not even an epidemic

A large number of reported cases

On closer examination

Were found to have been

Preceded by infatuation

This is a totally different strain

Of contagious flu

Which the W.H.O.

Has been renamed swoon flu

A MEASURED REFLECTION

 

When I was young

I was broad minded

And narrow hipped

Now I’m middle aged

My proportions

Appear to have flipped

PLANNING FOR THE FUTURE

 

I have three teenage sons

With appetites like men

And it costs a fortune

Feeding all of them

But due to the economy

Times are hard you see

So as they eat like men

At dinner time I told them

“Due to the current recession

Which may lead to a depression

Tough times are ahead you know

So we will have to let you all go"
