BECALMED

 

We sat becalmed on the cold ocean

I wished to see the waters move

But they remained mirror flat

Still as a silent thought

Lost in the absent echo

As we remained motionless

Beneath a relentless sun

IF PEOPLE MAKE DEMANDS OF YOU

 

If people, make demands of you

Disarm them skilfully

Give them more than they expect

And do it cheerfully

IN THE SKY NEWSROOM

 

In the SKY Newsroom

Just ahead of the action

The producer announces

“Lights Camera Fiction”

SEATBELT ANXIETY

 

My seatbelt wouldn’t fasten

I thought I had been tricked

But couldn’t work out just how

To do it up and then it clicked

PASTA’S

 

The are many

Types of Pasta

But a Spagelini

Is an impasta

21st CENTURY NURSERY RHYMES # 159

 

"Broken chairs to mend"

"Broken chairs to mend"

If I'd not gone to Argos

With money to spend,

I never would cry

"Broken chairs to mend"

 

ARE YOU WEARING WELLIES?

 

Are you wearing wellies?

Why where are we going?

Will it be quite muddy?

Or has it been snowing

They are not for outdoors?

Then their use has receded

So please just tell me

Why the wellies are needed?

I still don’t understand

If there is no outdoor activity

Oh now the penny has dropped

They’re for indoor depravity
