ANGELA & BRIAN

ARE WE ALL BORROWERS & LENDERS ? ANGELA & BRIAN ~ A Double Nonnet (18 lines)

LENDING SOMEONE A GOOD BOOK ~ CAN CHANGE THEIR LIVES ~ YES !

 

NEITHER a Borrower nor a lender be !

Said William Shakespeare once to You & Me

For Borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry !

I might be able to BUY it tomorrow

But for today ~ I yours must borrow !

I*ll give it back intact ~ there*ll be no sorrow

So let*s be Lendin* & Borrowin* Fools ~ most borrowed

Are garden equipment ~ household tools

Lendin* & Borrowin* has tribal rules !

 

Next comes FOOD ~ a massive list

Beers ~ Lagers ~ Wines & Brahms & Liszt (CD\'s !)

Milk & Sugar & Eggs & Bread

Easy to Borrow ~ not shop instead 

My next door Geezer has a massive ~ FREEZER ! 

Kitchen appliances ~ next on the list ~ Mixers &

Whiskers wont be missed ~ Microwaves & Cookers (slow) 

But If I roger the FUSE ~ My NEIGHBOUR will BLOW !

So please Borrow & Lend ~ BUT MIND HOW YOU GO ! ! !

 

Thanks for visiting ~ comments please ~ Love Angela & Brian ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿงก

 

When I (BRIAN) lived in Liverpool we lent & borrowed everything ~

I guess it was the Irish Influence !  We had one wheelbarrow in the

Street ~ it was just available ~ someone had nicked it from Work !

The same was true of Mixers & Blenders and one was always being 

sent *next door* (and vice versa) for a Loaf or some Eggs or for the

ubiquitous *cup of sugar*. In Essex my parents have *POSH* devices

like HEDGE TRIMMERS and LEAF BLOWERS but are always ready to

lend them if requested ~ and will always lend one of their CARS if

there is a need. Do you LEND & BORROW or does everyone in your

Street already have everything they need or are too proud to ask ?
