Monday Madness

orchidee



...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.
