Gosh Eth, Po's a good rhymer!.......Go. Do. Po.....but yes doesn't quite fit in for me...or does it?
I know you only went to kindy luv but let's see what you can do.....
I got to wake up first Eth......yawn
Fully awake sunshine?
Sorta pet.....here I sorta go.....(stifled yawn - scriptwriter insert)
My name is Ethel's Bertie
I am a pensioner
I suffer with my vertigo
I want to rollercoaster
clap...clap...clap....
Thankyou Eth......
That's Po luv......
And hear all that clapping in the distance?.....
Hang on. Where are my 'earing aids?.....
They're on you luv.....
Oh so they are......
That distant clapping is the Like-Minder Associates. They like you.....
Miss Bethel also likes me Eth......
I liked your rhyme also luv.......clap.....clap
(Thalia and Lucy here Po/Do. We think the scriptwriter might have got a bit carried away here. We apologise. His application to write for the Goons got rejected and he was turned down by Monty Python -couldn't do silly walks - pelvis fracture from ladda fall- Brits don't know talent when they see it. Anyhow thankyou for clapping Bert. He is happily back napping again. Dreaming of Miss Bethel no doubt....)

While you're in snow and winter freeze
Watching sleds sleigh by
I'm just melting in the heat
I ask myself, now why?
Cos you chose to live on the wrong side of the planet.....
Oh?....Is that why?
You enjoy your Christmas amid falling snowflakes and a nice log fire and I'll enjoy mine in cool air-conditioned comfort amid kangaroos jumping by......
Happy Christmas
We still have a windup gramaphone complete with steel needles MC. Makes a good night's entertainment listening to music hall greats. Grandson asks can you still get replacement amplifier valves?.....

We know you like our roller
Rides around the Park
We're only open in the day
And close it down when dark
I can't see to drive at night and Thalia tends to get her cocktails mixed up without some light.
Yes, I see you behind me,(next to Ruth). You seem to be enjoying yourself. Thanks to Po for taking the picture.

John/Po
My bit's shrunk over time.....
Eth says it's happened to her Bert too.....
Yes John, I'm only 4ft 6 now. Life wears you down....
These two have a habit of butting in. They're pensioners so we must be a bit gentle on them. We'll be like them one day John/Po.....
Before being butted in by Ethel and Bert I was about to say
My bit has shrunk, it's short
No longer can it rort
It's feeling so deflated
But life it that has tort
You too Don?.....
Careful what you say to your scriptwriter luv?
Who's he Eth?...
Go back to sleep.....

Thanks for the comments/likes - one and all. This HAS a tune but I seem unable to load it on this particular site.
If anyone is interested, send me your email address to my profile
page OR email me at markone05@live.com and i will try to send it on that way. it has been managed
previously elsewhere. There is a catch between jpeg (etc) files
and wma (etc) files on what I see available on my PC that I have yet to overcome. But then I was brought up in an age that had wind-up
gramophones, steel needles and bakelite discs as state of the art home entertainment!! ?

Hi Mika, if you want the full experience (not truncated by the WoL player) you can find it and all my other readings here:

In this poem I flirted with the idea of rhyming... amongst other things.

I did a bit of rorting
(Sharp practice) when was young
When used on youngish ladies
All I got was stung
I'd advise against rorting (sharp practice type) at our age John. Waste of time. Ladies just not interested.

A “rort”, Don? You’ve taught me a word I didn’t know. Google also says it means to engage in sharp practice in Strine.

To join The Like-Minders Society and experience the thrill of rollercoasting around our Theme Park to stops of various offbeat poetical interest contact our Leader (you may even get to wave to Bert unless his scriptwriter has cured his vertigo)
We are on a recruitment drive so don't be shy. However we don't accept riff-raff or doomy gloomers. We run a tight ship. If, however, you are willing to undergo a 'transformation' our Leader might consider you

I look at presents under tree
Piles of them, and all for me
Why can't they give just one to treasure
Instead of muck to fill my leisure
When I was young I got one present. It was special to me and I treasured it. Today, kids get 20 presents. Plastic, discarded, or broken the next day.

A hanky is for blowing nose

At wild parties (a rort)
Stick to the hanky at our age John. It's safer...
