Random Ramblings

orchidee

Nope, not a poem about a walk

Not that sort of ramble

But you'll have to put up with

Some of my mad 'ramblings' again, and some 'Doh!' moments.

 

 

Things like:

I was awake half the night, full of bubbles from fizzy pop. Full of hot air? No change there then for me. lol.

***

A naughty one: When the s**t hits the fan, ensure you're standing in the opposite direction.

***

When I eventually found out what 'Carpe Diem' meant, it was night time, and no day left to seize.

***

When a notice on a Fire Door says 'This door must be kept closed at all times', how we gonna get out if there's a fire?

***

Do I (we) 'cheat' by 'liking' our own poems? We only do it once per poem though. heehee.

***

I read of a law of an upper-class person - in days of renting pews in churches. He said it was OK for him to snooze during sermons, but if he awoke and found anyone else dozing, he would send his servants to them, to wake them up!

***

An old Admiral in church sat at the front. He placed a pile of coins on the pew shelf ready for the collection. But he took off coins from the pile at intervals, the longer the sermons went on, and gave what was left at the end of the sermons.

***

You found Bill Stickers or Bill Posters? They're gonna prosecute them ya know. Why, what have they done?!

***

Woof! Fido enjoys eating KP's food, while I feed her the dog food. When will I stop being horrible to her?! lol

***

Gor plenty of dough (cash)? Come see us, say some churches (or other places) - you'll soon be broke then!

***

We best laugh at our own jokes, cos maybe no one else will!

***

I could sub-title this poem 'Mad Adventures of Orchi, No's 4538 to 4545' - or summat like that!

    I think that this could be an alternative hymn to be sung on special occasions. Nice one Orchi

    • orchidee

      Thank you SB. Yes - now to think of a tune to it. lol.

      • sorenbarrett

        Too long gone from church my friend the tunes have fallen away like leaves in the winter.

        Thanks for the smiles this morning, Orchi! I'm back again at MPS, but won't be here every day (busy doing other things). Nice to see that you are still here! Regards, Robert.

                    I confine myself to one comment per visit, but don't visit every day;
                    So orchi, today happens to be the day - but what to say?

                    • orchidee

                      You called in to read this rubbish?! lol.

                      • Doggerel Dave

                        Wait! There's more!
                        What about your great masterpiece, yet to be completed and released:
                        ‘Carry On Orchadee’ complete with a talking dog and a shifting cast of poets in floppy velvet hats smelling roses and quoting odd pieces of codswollop - ie ‘To be…….. or not to be’…. Needed one more cast member – female, bubbly with.. um.. a couple of protuberances in ..um.. – go on have a quick faint while you can…
