DARKNESS EVADES THE LIGHT

 

Darkness evades the light

It retreats into tight corners

And hides just out of reach

Where the light stops short

And the darkness waits

Patiently biding its time

As the day ebbs away

And the shadows lengthen

Until the darkness rules again

TRUE COOL

 

They’re the “in crowd”

The cool ones

The clique

 

Wearing the right clothes

Saying the right things

Defining cool

 

The un-cool sit

On the outside looking in

Wishing to be “in”

 

They bully and barrack

And show off to the crowd

The shallow crew

 

Sneering at cleverness

Shaming the boffins

In front of their crowd

 

Soon they will know

They have no future

They’re the cool fools

 

Don’t be envious

Stay with your piers

Friendship rocks

 

Just stand fast

Stick with your friends

That’s true cool

FROZEN WINDOWS

 

Bimbette texted Peaches "Windows

@ home, frozen - what should I do?"

Peaches texted back “use some de-icer

Or boiling water will probably do”

Bimbette “OK, computer went bang

And lights have fused too"

CAR DEAL

 

After passing his driving test, a teenage boy,

Asked his dad if he would buy him a car

Dad thought about it for a while and replied

“If you do better at school than you have so far,

Go to church every Sunday without fail

And get a haircut. I will buy you a car”

 

After a few months had passed the boy

Asked his dad if he would buy him a car

Dad thought about it for a while and replied

“Well, you have improved at school by far

And you’ve gone to church every Sunday

But you still need a haircut, so no car”

 

The boy replied, “Since going to church

I have learned a very great deal so far

Samson, John the Baptist, Moses, and Jesus

All had long hair, so we are on a par"
Dad smiled and said, “They may all have had

Long hair but none of them had a car”

THE END OF ROMANCE

 

I knew the very moment that

The romance had died, it was after

I drank from my wife’s slipper

And almost choked on a corn plaster

21st CENTURY NURSERY RHYMES # 116

 

Wee Willie Winkie runs through the town,

Upstairs and downstairs in his nightgown.

He does it for attention so everyone can see

Because he thinks that he’s a celebrity

SINCE THE BBC SACKED ALL THE DALEKS # 7

 

Since the BBC sacked all the Daleks

Most are just scrounging off the state

But there is one working at Tesco’s

He doesn’t really communicate

And it scares a lot of the shoppers

When it says Extortionate, Extortionate
