21st CENTURY NURSERY RHYMES # 281

 

Hush baby, my doll,

I pray at this juncture

My sweet baby doll

Hasn’t got a puncture

ARE YOU WEARING A RED CHRISTMAS OUTFIT?

 

Are you wearing a red Christmas outfit?

You look very beautiful in it

In fact you look very cute

In your Santa’s little helper suit

A Christmas hat sits atop your curls

In a way only suited to girls

A beautiful red velvet dress

And white fur trim to impress

Striped woollen legs of red and white

Are they stocking or tights?

Stockings would be in reason

More in keeping with the season

But I would not disparage woolly tights

They too have their own delights

Come and help me trim the tree

And say you dressed this way for me?

WE HAVE LOVED EGGS # 4

 

We have loved eggs

Since we were children

Chuckie Eggs my dad

Used to call them

SINCE I RETIRED I HAVE RESISTED THE TEMPTATION

 

Since I retired, I have resisted the temptation

To tidy the cellar, the garage, or the attic

Because the moment I accomplished the task

My grown-up kids would fill them with their shit

WHAT DO PENSIONERS?

What do pensioners?

Consider long lunches to be? 

Perfectly normal I think

At least as far as I can see

AT ONE HUNDRED YEARS OF AGE SHE WAS ASKED

At one hundred years of age she was asked

At her age what thing gave her the most pleasure?

She thought for a moment before she replied

The most satisfying thing was “No peer pressure” 

WHY DO YOU LOOK BEMUSED?

 

Why do you look bemused?

It’s just our point of view

But sometimes we are not

Thinking about you
