A bit of light relief.

 

Nan's Lippy

Nanna she was young at heart,
It's hard to know where to start.
She always was a lively girl,
loved to dance and to whirl.

 

When she started having trouble with her sight,
she just could not get her lipstick right.
It was everywhere else on her face,
other than her lips where there was no trace.

 

Eventually one of her eyes they had to remove,
but even that did not stop her groove.

 

She never grew old in my eyes,
but where she wore her lippy was always a surprise.
