Have we got time for another?
What, wine? Oh no let me recover
Well maybe a sherry
Gin from a berry
Or a drop of fine malt to discover

The children are tired and fractious

Couldn't take him to any posh 'do'
He'd take out his dentures to chew!
‘Twas more of a suck

Sorry, I can’t think of a next line because I’m laughing at the picture these 3 lines conjure up!🤣🤣🤣
So . . .

‘Twas more of a suck
A slurp that he took

yes I did ponder for a while before adding that third line and wondered if anyone would dare put the obvious rhyming word. 🤣

Would only sleep with the light on
She'd found some false teeth

Would only sleep with the light on
She'd found some false teeth
But to her relief

Not hers but they sure did frighten.

When Jack took a swim in the sea

When Jack took a swim in the sea
He bumped into a novice, - me!

Salti Sun 23-Apr-23 10:43:24

When Jack took a swim in the sea
He bumped into a novice, - me!
I fell off the pier

crazyH Sun 23-Apr-23 10:44:24

When Jack took a swim in the sea
He bumped into a novice, - me!
My arms a-flailing

Mollygo Sun 23-Apr-23 11:51:22

When Jack took a swim in the sea
He bumped into a novice, - me!
My arms a-flailing
Swimming strokes failing

When Jack took a swim in the sea
He bumped into a novice-me!
My arms a-flailing
Swimming strokes failing
Not what he expected to see

He grabbed hold of my outstretched arms

He grabbed hold of my outstretched arms
But he couldn’t resist my charms

crazyH Sun 23-Apr-23 13:00:36

He grabbed hold of my outstretched arms
But he couldn’t resist my charms
Just one kiss, begs he,

CazzJazz Sun 23-Apr-23 13:54:28

He grabbed hold of my outstretched arms
But he couldn't resist my charms
Just one kiss, begs he,
Not likely, yelled me

VB000 Sun 23-Apr-23 14:06:03

He grabbed hold of my outstretched arms
But he couldn't resist my charms
Just one kiss, begs he,
Not likely, yelled me
I won't hear the government alarms!

The old music filling the house

The old music filling the house
Made my dog start waltzing to Strauss

Juliet27 Mon 24-Apr-23 06:17:55

The old music filling the house
Made my dog start waltzing to Strauss
I welcomed the sound

Crocus5 Mon 24-Apr-23 07:32:25

The old music filling the house
Made my dog start waltzing to Strauss
I welcomed the sound
As he danced around

The old music filling the house
Made my dog start waltzing to Strauss
I welcomed the sound
As he danced around
Unlikely duet with a mouse.

I'd love to be able to sing

Juliet27 Mon 24-Apr-23 08:41:11

I'd love to be able to sing
Anything from opera to swing

Mollygo Mon 24-Apr-23 09:50:43

I'd love to be able to sing
Anything from opera to swing
Or some sultry jazz
