Why does a potato peeler
Always stay so sharp?
It's a thought that keeps me up
I ponder on this throughout the night
And then it leaves me tired for work
And who discovered the milk from cows?
And what was he doing at the time?!
I'll drink a pint of the creamy white stuff
Until this thought, then i'm not so fine.
And where does the left sock stealthily go?
Or maybe it is the right?
We all know they come in pairs
Until one hops out of sight
And lets not get started on the hide and seek keys
The greatest game of all
Those little tricksters disappear
When you need them most of all
You see when it comes down to it
In this modern world we've made
There's some things you can't explain
And it's meant to be that way
Because a little bit of mystery
Is needed by one and all
It helps us realise that actually
We are all a bunch of fools

yes yes yes.... crafty fool that i am though i bought another potato peeler and guess what..... it made my other one look blunt. Dontcha just hate it when the whole basis of your previous conjecture goes west with the ubiquitous sock.....
Noooooooooooooooooo..... youre a liar! A liar I say!!!
ok ok so i found the sock.... who grassed me up?
Made me think - my PP seems okay but is it really blunt? Might have to do what dusk has done and buy abother one to compare it - but then I am trying to avoid going out and mixing with people at the moment - I need to go to the dentist and get my haircut - better get these things done before us oldies are confined to barracks. Great write by the way.
Mike don't do it! Life is precious. You will just have to NOT do what DA has done and trust me on this one!!! Thanks mate 🙂
The other problem is when you put something in a 'safe place' never to be found again!
Good one SC.

Yes...... So be warned!
Entertainment all the way, have a fantastic day!
Thanks for the smile!
Cheer Dan. You too my friend
Yes - and what are snooker tables doing in trees? That old joke from a few days ago now! lol.
Trying to look like cherries?
Enjoyable read and indeed reflection. I quite often lose a sock or two or three
3??? How many feet do you have DB?!!?!
Rofl does suggest I have an odd amount. But I mean pairs. Haha or maybe I am a mutant 😉
Very funny. Somebody should do a whole poem on socks.
