I stopped to admire a lovely seaside view
Stood there undecided, contemplating as you do

A seagull swooped down and pooped on my head

biglouis Tue 27-Jul-21 12:51:08

I’ll shrug off the comments from naysayers
For petty rules Ill be one of the disobeyers

Ive put more than my share in the community

threexnanny Tue 27-Jul-21 18:19:28

I've put more than my share in the community
But it isn't appreciated and that's a pity

There are always those who say a lot and do very little

biglouis Wed 28-Jul-21 15:58:00

There are always those who say a lot and do very little
They achieve nothing and their words are brittle

At least I know that I have done my job well

threexnanny Fri 30-Jul-21 14:39:52

At least I know that I have done my job well
Even if there's no one to praise me and make my head swell

I will always continue to try and do my best

Mollygo Fri 30-Jul-21 14:48:50

I will always continue to try and do my best
And then I’ll put my feet up, and have a well earned rest

On a sofa, a reclining chair, a bean bag, or my bed

biglouis Sat 31-Jul-21 00:10:21

On a sofa, a reclining chair, a bean bag, or my bed
Sometimes I just long to rest my weary head

Mostly I get on with life and do the daily tasks

henetha Tue 03-Aug-21 10:40:59

Mostly I get on with life and do the daily tasks
And just always do what everyone asks,

But sometimes I feel like a rebel

threexnanny Thu 05-Aug-21 17:21:46

But sometimes I feel like a rebel
Not for me to be tossed about like a pebble

I'll dye my hair red and get myself noticed

biglouis Thu 05-Aug-21 20:46:23

I'll dye my hair red and get myself noticed
Get my cautious neighbours in a twist

Maybe have a dozen cats and pigeons too

Mollygo Fri 06-Aug-21 08:56:14

Maybe have a dozen cats, and pigeons too.
Hope they don’t come too close or they’ll end up as a shoe.

I’d like a sweet whippet to take for a stroll.

henetha Fri 06-Aug-21 10:21:17

I’d like a sweet whippet to take for a stroll.
And feed dainty morsels from a nice bowl.

My whippet and I would run through the park

Crocus5 Fri 06-Aug-21 11:04:27

My whippet and I would run through the park
The morning, afternoon and after dark

We would meet other people and their dogs

biglouis Fri 06-Aug-21 23:50:19

We would meet other people and their dogs
Some are thoughtless and use grass as bogs

Ill always have my "poop scoop" ready to hand

crazyH Sat 07-Aug-21 00:19:15

Ill always have my "poop scoop" ready to hand
Instead of throwing it in Mrs Dee’s land

I’m very considerate, I want you to know

henetha Sat 07-Aug-21 10:40:44

I’m very considerate, I want you to know
I hide behind bushes when I want to 'go'.

So no-one ever sees my naughty bits

crazyH Sat 07-Aug-21 12:48:35

So no-one ever sees my naughty bits
When I’m sunbathing, I cover my tits

No chance of that in today’s wet weather

threexnanny Sat 07-Aug-21 12:57:53

No chance of that in today's wet weather
But I can see a patch of blue, so never say never

I'm always the optimist with my glass half full

crazyH Sat 07-Aug-21 16:38:30

I'm always the optimist with my glass half full
When faced with troubles, I’m quite cool

Miss Easygoing, my middle name

biglouis Sat 07-Aug-21 22:15:33

Miss Easygoing, my middle name
I never was one to apportion blame

Some things go right, and some go wrong

Mollygo Sun 08-Aug-21 05:06:25

Some things go right, and some go wrong
But I’ll cheer myself up with a song

?Like “We’re all going on a summer holiday”?

henetha Sun 08-Aug-21 11:40:02

Like “We’re all going on a summer holiday”?
That's great, I'm singing it loudly today.

And "Always Look on the Bright Side" too

Crocus5 Sun 08-Aug-21 13:09:46

And “Always Look on the Bright Side” too
There’s such al it that you can do

A glass half-full is best, they say

crazyH Sun 08-Aug-21 17:08:31

A glass half-full is best, they say
Keeps the very black dog at bay

Laugh, smile, show your teeth if you must

biglouis Sun 08-Aug-21 20:35:26

Laugh, smile, show your teeth if you must
So lets do away with despair and distrust

Lets raise a glass to these summer days

Mollygo Mon 09-Aug-21 09:18:06

Let’s raise a glass to these summer days
And celebrate them in our own different ways

A stroll in the park or a rest in the sun
