You Got The Time?

orchidee



You got the time there?

Is it a quarter past Spring

Half past Summer

Or a quarter to Winter?

 

I dunno what day it is

What week, year, or century even!

That'll teach me to post

Easter theme poems in November

 

Now ya knows I can't post Ch....... poems

Or say the word until December

Or Goldfinch will shoot me!

 

The only word I hear

A million times a day

Well, two words actually - from KP

Is 'More botox!'

 

I got no money, ya know

She's spent it all on looking trout-like

She don't care about Ch.....

Or any other season of the year

All she does is spend it

On 'me, me, me!

 

I pays her compliments

Dunno what the fuss is

Each morning I tells her

'You're looking lovely and more trout-like each day, my dear!'

 

And Fido agrees

He helped me write this poem. lol

      Thanks N. Yes, it degenerated into thoughts of KP. But when have I ever given her a second thought? A charitable thought, that is! lol.
