THE SWEET SCENT OF FRESH MOWN HAY

 

The sweet scent of fresh mown hay

Carried on the evening summer breeze

Makes her look at me and smile

As she knows it will make me sneeze

I AM NOT A HOUSE PROUD MAN

 

I am not a house proud man

By any means or measure

I find it too much of a chore

I am more a man of leisure

So, for me a clean flat is

The sign of a broken computer

I USED TO BE INDECISIVE

 

I used to be indecisive

At least I thought so

But I am now quite sure

That I don’t actually know

SHE WAS A REAL NATURE GIRL

 

She was a real nature girl

Dancing happily in the meadows

Like a flitting summer sprite

With no thought of cares and woes

As she frolic’s like a lamb all day

Till the lengthening of the shadows

I MET MY PROSPECTIVE FATHER IN LAW AT THE WEEKEND

 

I met my prospective father in law at the weekend

And he seemed quite normal when I saw him

So, I was quite pleased until my girlfriend said

“Everyone seems normal until you get to know them”

I NEED YOU TO DELETE ME FROM YOUR ADDRESS BOOK

 

“I need you to delete me from your address book”

My ex-girlfriend emailed me to express

I pondered for some time before I replied

“Who is this? And how did you get this address?”

MY SISTER IS A SOPHISTICATE

 

My sister is a sophisticate

And has travelled far away

She’s been to a Taj Mahal

That isn’t an Indian takeaway
