TWENTY YEARS HAVE PAST

 

Twenty years have past

Since we stood side by side

It wasn’t all hearts and flowers

At times it was a bumpy ride

I think it’s been an achievement

And I feel an intense pride

I wouldn’t have spent a moment

Without you by my side

I don’t regret a single moment

Though there were tears along the way

But there was laughter also

And there was love every day

 

So here’s to the twenty years

That have happily gone before

Twenty happy years of love

I hope we have twenty more

IN THE MEADOW

 

I so remember that perfect day

When I first saw you

You were walking in the meadow

When you came in view

 

I so remember that perfect day

When I knew you were the one

As we danced in this meadow

In the afternoon sun

 

I so remember that perfect day

When you won my heart

And we held hands in the meadow

I never wanted us to part

 

I so remember that perfect day

When first we met

And we made love in the meadow

As the sun began to set

 

I so remember that perfect day

When you won my heart

I scatter your ashes in the meadow

And my heart breaks apart

ARE YOU WEARING DENIM JEANS?

Are you wearing denim jeans?

Popular they have always been

But on the older man they’re not

As fashionable as they might seem 

THERE IS KNOWLEDGE I NEED TO KNOW # 6

There is knowledge I need to know

Which will give me the status of a king

For example, why do the words, flammable

And inflammable mean the same thing

I HAVE MANY QUESTIONS # 4

 

I have many questions

That are not my Jurisdiction

And I ponder if it’s possible

To have too much moderation

IN THE ITV NEWSROOM

 

In the ITV Newsroom

Just ahead of the action

The producer announces

“Lights Camera Fiction”

ASSEMBLY LINE LOVE

 

I have a new girlfriend, really fine

Who works on an assembly line 

Making wheelie bins, short and stout.

Not sure what day to take her out.
