...Or, whaddya know...
It could be Tuesday, Wednesday,.... madness
Choose a day - any day!
How do you mean, Orchi, you ask?
Well, it's nearing time for the 1066 Reunion again
You know - Battle Of Hastings in 1066 in UK
October 14th is the date to book
If you want to join us
Goldfinch and I always go....
But - do you know there's one condition
You have to have been there in person in 1066!
Even if not in the battle
And you only observed it
Just to have been around in Hastings then
You'll be very old now, of course
And - woof! - my (imaginary) dog, Fido
He will be there too
Keep them poems marked 18+if they need to be
He will read them all when he gets back
Oh yes, a talking, reading, barking dog!
He reads the newspaper by the fire
On dark evenings, in his carpet slippers
He says - if smoking wasn't bad for us
He would smoke a pipe too!
Call me eccentric if you will
Oh, it's barmy, it's nutty!
But don't be gloomy-doom always
Though there's real times of trouble in life
Meanwhile, he barks ferociously
Each time I sing
Not that he is fierce
(Except if you don't mark up them 18+ poems)
But it's to drown out my singing!
One tried to help me
They said 'Take a pill for it'
As in 'keep taking the tablets'
I took THE Pill instead -Swoon!
Enough nuttiness for one day - for one week?!
Plenty of time to be nutty tomorrow again -
Another whole day! heehee.

The time is near
the battle was lost
all because of you
that comment you tossed
tossed to Harold that day
What's that you said
Pointing in the air
Harold looked up
and as the saying goes
The rest is history.
Thanks Gold. lol. Doh! He did look up.
