NEEDLES

Michael Edwards

 

 

 

The acupuncturist was in despair

a shortage of needles and not one to spare

the cause of the problem: delivery backlogs

problem solved:  thank goodness for hedgehogs.

          The answer to food shortages - baked in clay - complete with chop sticks (far too many if you ask me).

          Good Morning Uncle Mike - Evening Clinic today so time to post a Poem (Education ! Education ! Education !) a comment on the latest victim of the Arch-Virus - COVID 19. I am a qualified ACTUPUNCTURIST - and (at the point of puncture) I supply it free on the NHS ! HEDGEPIGS are not the most Hygienic of critters but I liked the concept. Brian & I have been accused of writing *Boring & Factual Poems sans Emotion* so it is just as well we have some MSN Clowns & Jokers to balance the Odds ! Love the visual (poppy seed heads) so few lines - so much meaning !

          Blessings & Joy to You & Yours
          Love Angela & Brian ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿค๐Ÿ’™

            We need both types (in fact all types) of poetry on this site and it would be a great loss without either.
