PROVERBIAL PROVERBS # 4

 

Practise what you preach

Isn’t that what they teach?

But preach what you’ve practised

Is the advice of a Semanticist

WITH ALL THE TECHNOLOGY AVAILABLE

With all the technology available

I’m afraid I’ve got very lazy

Today at work I e-mailed the person

Who sits at the desk facing me

I FORGOT TO GET BUNS ON THE SHOPPING

 

I forgot to get buns on the shopping

And when I got home my wife had a fit

But she soon calmed down as there’s

No need to get Hot and Cross about it

TODAY I PULLED UP ON THE DRIVEWAY

 

Today I pulled up on the driveway

And within minutes of stopping

I phoned to see if anyone was home

To help me carry in the shopping

COMMUNICATION IS A CONSTANT WORRY

Communication is a constant worry

And which form works without fail

So is the e-mail of the species

Really more deadly than the mail 

IF YOUR DEVICE IS BELOW PAR

If your device is below par

I have some advice for you

Simply don't byte off more

And more than you can view

THE SNAKES NEXT DOOR

 

A young snake had been playing in the neighbour’s

Garden, but returned home in floods of tears

The Mother asked “What on earth is the matter?

Tell me what happened to reduce you to tears”

“They won't let me hiss in their pit, they said I

Wasn’t good enough because I’m small and thin”

Mum said “Don't let them upset you Darling,

I knew them when they didn't have a pit to hiss in”
