THE GULF IS EVIDENT

 

The gulf is evident

Between man and president

The gulf is clear

Between success and failure

The gulf is a disaster

For president Obama

MONDAY’S GIRL

 

Monday’s girl

Blessed with beauty’s kiss

So fair of face

Do swains’ heartbeats miss?

As suitors court

For her hand in wedded bliss

PUT DOWN # 38

 

Put downs work the best

For deflecting unwanted attention

But try to be amusing

As this relieves the tension

“What would it take” he might say

“For you to go out with me?”

Just reply “a few years off your age,

I would suggest twenty”

ALL WORK AND NO PLAY

 

All work and no play

Makes Jack a dull boy

All work and no play

Makes a life without joy

 

Don’t live to work

Take time for leisure

You should work to live

Life should be a pleasure

 

You don’t have to work

Every hour that God sends

Spend precious time

With family and friends

 

Don’t work all the time Jack

Get this into your head

You’re only alive for a short time

But you’re a long time dead

MORNINGS AREN’T THE SAME ANYMORE

 

I miss Wake Up to Wogan

I miss the old camuggian

Wogan was the class, but alas

He’s been replaced by the brash

 

How did Chris Evans get the job?

That I can only surmise

But it’s like the Krankies

Replacing Morecambe and Wise

DRASTIC SURGERY

 

People of a certain age

With skin like tired elastic

Go to see a surgeon

And are quite enthusiastic

Though the procedures

Seem a little drastic

The surgeon promises

They will look fantastic

In reality however they just

Tighten the tired elastic

But the patient is satisfied

And pay the bill on plastic

THE FALSETTO GENERATIONS

 

I was one of the baby boomers

And we were raised differently

The subsequent generations

Have developed much more selfishly

They are the falsetto generations

Because they always go me me me
