THE WAY TO GARDEN EFFECTIVELY

 

To garden effectively, firstly, put on a hat

But be very careful, and choose the right one

Straw preferably, and it should have a

Wide brim to protect you from the sun

Some old clothes, but nothing too scruffy 

It should be a stylish yet practical rig

And with a hoe in one hand and a cold drink

In the other, tell somebody else where to dig

TO A GARDENER

 

To a gardener,

A grassed over area

Is just a flowerbed

That has yet to appear

21st CENTURY NURSERY RHYMES # 349

 

Little Miss Muffet

Sat on a tuffet

Eating of curds and whey;

And if you ever wondered

What a tuffet is

You’ll find them on Ebay

WHINGING HOLIDAY MAKERS # 3

 

Topless sunbathing on the beach

Should be universally banned

My husband finds it distracting

And can’t relax as he planned

WHY DID THE BIGAMIST CROSS THE ROAD?

 

Why did the bigamist cross the road?

Well not just to get to the other side

The reason he wanted to cross over

Was so he could get to the other bride

ARE YOU WEARING A POLICEMAN’S HAT?

 

Are you wearing a policeman’s hat?

And you don’t get fed up with that

When they ask about your bobby’s hat

“Does your head reach the top of that?”

BONSAI GRANDAD

 

My grandfather became such

A successful bonsai grower

He had to move to a house

Where the garden was smaller
