MORE SHORTIES (1-3)

Michael Edwards

 

 

He only lives a stone’s throw away

and suffers concussion every day.

 

My curiosity has quite a thirst

so I ordered an egg and a chicken on line

to see which one would arrive here first.

 

As I walk through the Valley of the Shadow of Death

I start to tremble and hold my breath

and question my judgement for perhaps

I should never have relied on Google Maps

      Splendiferous Michael .. though shorties in form, they are each a tall order to beat and long on guffaws .. Neville

        Death to Google maps...rip and use pages out of that 1998 street directory - your only chance of finding the Pearly Gates.
        Good laugh, Michael.

        • Michael Edwards

          Pearly gates never seem to feature on the antique programmes - must be pretty rare Cheers DD
