Things I have that aren't sexy:
Bills
Pills
And apoplexy
Things I have that are quite rare:
Patience
Love
And a head of hair
Things I have that make me smile:
Kids
Books
And camomile
Things I have that ease my soul:
Jazz
Blues
And rock and roll
Things I have that make me cool
Charisma
Wit
And being "old school"
Things I freely give to you:
Words
Rhymes
And metre too

Clever and catchy this one sends its message in good rhyme and meter freely given. Nicely done
Thank you S.
Just trying to brighten up a rainy Scottish Sunday.
Into town with the kids now. Shopping and Cafes. One of those my favourite, one a chore. Have a good day.
Must be raining everywhere its a rainy Sunday in Brazil as well. You are most welcome and have a great day yourself
You probably have better coffee 😁
We probably have better rain.....more practice!
The coffee is particularly good when picked off the tree outside, dried and roasted then ground, put in a cheesecloth sack and boiling water poured through them. Smell great in the morning.
I like the sound of that. Can't grow coffee here ☹️
We have blackberry bushes though,, the kids and I harvest them and my son and I make jam. Did it yesterday, and had it this morning for breakfast. Feels good when you do it yourself.
Indeed
What a charming piece, my friend. It starts with a wink, keeps the rhythm playful, and then lands on the gifts that make life worth sharing…music, love, words, and a good sense of humor. Loved this, Jabberwocky. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
Good words Gary and so true, especially the jazz.
