HE THOUGHT

Michael Edwards

 

 

 

HE THOUGHT 

 

He thought he would

They said he could

He knew he should

He bit the bullet

He couldn’t do it.

 

They said he couldn’t

He knew he shouldn’t

They thought he wouldn't

To his discredit

He went and did it.

      Just don't even think about it - I don't - but then I haven't a clue what it is.
      Answers on a postcard please - do they make postcards any more?
      The last time I used one they said it had to be stamped - I stamped on it. Stupid idea. Couldn't use it - my shoe was all muddy.

        They said it was IMPOSSIBLE
        But MARIE CURIE was UNSTOPPABLE
        So with PIERRE'S smart proclivity
        They solved the mystery of ...........

          We were likened to Buddy Holly and Audry Hepburn at the time - I think it was the glasses and the hat. Thanks Brian.

          Michael,

          So glad...
          “He went and did it.”!!

          Such a handsome couple!
          54 years..that’s awesome!
          “The sags and wrinkles” mean nothing! It’s the lasting love that matters!

          ~Laura~
