Not wishing to ruffle no feathers

I passed this by Brian Maryon

Great poem don just go and post it

So here I am, to post it on

 

(Aside)

 

You'll notice my grammar's atrocious

My head, it is , well, kinda shot

But that's what God ended up giving me

So sorry folks, that's what I've got

 

Now to the title of my poem ...

 

Moaning minnies need to

Be driven outa town

All they're bloody doing

Is pulling all us down

 

I know we all have bad days

When skies are dark and grey

Let's bring some comic verse back

And drive the clouds away

 

Why's there so much serious

Poetry on this site ?

Where have all the Goons gone ?

(They've chuckled out of sight)

 

I think of Cook and Dudley

The mischief, Benny Hill

They helped us all to neutralise

In life, those bitter  pills

 

So I will go and sit down

And pull out from my mind

Things to make us chuckle and

Leave serious behind
