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

A seagull swooped down and pooped on my head

henetha Tue 14-Sept-21 11:02:02

About all the fatties who lounge on the couch,
I suppose I can't help it, I'm just an old slouch.

But I really will buy a big dog very soon

biglouis Tue 14-Sept-21 14:25:38

But I really will buy a big dog very soon
Ill walk him each morning and also at noon

So I soon will get fit and look after my pet

henetha Thu 16-Sept-21 11:49:25

So I soon will get fit and look after my pet
And when he's ill we will visit the vet

And I hope he'll help keep the burglars away

crazyH Thu 16-Sept-21 12:24:12

And I hope he'll help keep the burglars away
I hope his barks will keep them at bay.

My treasure chest I’ll have to hide

biglouis Thu 16-Sept-21 13:09:36

My treasure chest I’ll have to hide
With all my valuables locked inside

And embed it safe within my walls

crazyH Thu 16-Sept-21 19:07:08

And embed it safe within my walls
Must take great care, lest it falls

There it will stay until I find

threexnanny Thu 16-Sept-21 19:20:00

There it will stay until I find
Another place and change my mind

Maybe the bank vault would be better

biglouis Fri 17-Sept-21 13:10:58

Maybe the bank vault would be better
To keep it safe so I wont be a debter

No one will know what I hide in there

henetha Sat 18-Sept-21 11:55:24

No one will know what I hide in there
It could be cash, or a lock of my lover's hair.

It could be both, plus the family silver

threexnanny Sat 18-Sept-21 15:01:30

It could be both, plus the family silver
My friend wants to know and her curiosity may kill her

But I won't tell as I think it's better that way

biglouis Sat 18-Sept-21 22:31:22

But I won't tell as I think it's better that way
All my family secrets I will spirit away

Then after my death they can open the lid

henetha Sun 19-Sept-21 11:26:59

Then after my death they can open the lid
I'll be in heaven, so won't know what they did.

It's lovely in heaven, no Covid I'm sure

biglouis Tue 21-Sept-21 04:49:44

It's lovely in heaven, no Covid I'm sure
My dearly loved grandmother I'll see once more

And all of my forebears there waiting for me

henetha Tue 21-Sept-21 12:17:12

And all of my forebears there waiting for me,
Will I have to invite them all to tea?

I hope I can bake a sponge cake or two

biglouis Tue 21-Sept-21 13:52:49

I hope I can bake a sponge cake or two
Get Morrisons to deliver before they are due

Or maybe M&S as their cakes are quite tasty

henetha Fri 24-Sept-21 11:23:32

Or maybe M&S as their cakes are quite tasty,
Not too many though, we musn't be hasty.

Even angels in heaven can put on weight

biglouis Sat 25-Sept-21 12:08:58

Even angels in heaven can put on weight
When the trumpet sounds they cant be late

And heavenly choirs with dumpy singers

Ali08 Sun 26-Sept-21 01:13:35

And heavenly choirs with dumpy singers

Still need to wash clothes
But feed them through wringers

biglouis Tue 28-Sept-21 12:33:38

But feed them through wringers
And then trap their fingers

Such a sobbing and crying

henetha Tue 28-Sept-21 13:43:49

Such a sobbing and crying
And the angels all start flying,

It's pandemonium in heaven

threexnanny Tue 28-Sept-21 14:00:42

It's pandemonium in heaven
But so much quieter here in Devon

I will hang on down here for as long as I can

Ali08 Tue 28-Sept-21 21:05:24

I will hang on down here for as long as I can

But please be fast
My nails are down to their last

crazyH Tue 28-Sept-21 21:41:53

I will hang on down here for as long as I can
I’m in no hurry to see my dead Gran

My nails will be down to its last

crazyH Tue 28-Sept-21 21:43:00

I will hang on down here for as long as I can
I’m in no hurry to see my dead Gran

My nails will probably be down to its last

biglouis Wed 29-Sept-21 12:26:19

My nails will probably be down to its last
And I will reflect on memories past

Mt time will come, as all must do
