I'm foundered and look it's lashing again,
That's all it does here, rain rain rain.
Maybe when it stops i'll go out for a wee dander,
Might pop into Cathys but then thon Gary will come out to gander.
Gary's a nosey ejit, swear it's such a sin,
He needs move to down south and go wind his wee neck in.
He sometimes calls to my house, so ofcorse I lock the doors,
Hide until he's left and crawl around my bloody floors.
He knocks on all my windows and hokes around the garden,
I'm laid on the kitchen floor thinking 'I beg your god damn pardon!'
But deren't i go and tell him, because he's a cheeky blert
And i know that he would deck me , oh mary jesus it's a cert!

Renzi you lost me on this one. Who the heck is thon Gary? I tried to google it but could not find anything. Can you explain this to me?
Ahh its fictional my friend, Gary does not exist. But betrayed as a nosey neighbour! I thought today needed something light, with a bit of humour and irish slang. (Thon) 'pass me thon remote would ya'
Renzi, I am Swiss german, lived in Canada, now in Hawaii since about 30 years, mother tongue Swiss German, speak French and English, now think in English, but still have problems understanding the finer points of the language. So your help is really appreciated. I love your poems and read them the moment I see them. Please keep on feeding our addiction to your writing. Thanks
Hawaii you lucky duck, a beautiful place i'd love to visit one day! Imagine i have German and French down my family line , with some family in Canada too, what are the odds eh! Unfortunately i only speak a little Spanish and Slovenian
My partner is Slovenian, he's still picking up the slang. And hey, sometimes not even the english understand the Northern irish haha. But i'm happy so share. Always. Thankyou for your support and reading. That means a lot my friend 🙂
My wife and I would love to show you around Hawaii if you ever make it here. If you want to I can leave my email address in your mailbox, so if you do come here and if I am not on this forum anymore, at least you can contact me. Up to you.
Awh do send it. With a world to explore and the years ahead, all being well.. one never knows where she may reach. Travel more is up there in the 'musts' 🙂
Just found that ejit is Irish for a "fool or idiot". So who is this idiot?
My wee bio tells ya it's just for fun, 'thon gary is an ejit'
Thought a wee break from realities seriousness was needed. I created a nosey annoying neighbour in my head (very typical to have those here in Belfast ha) and wrote something typically Belfast like ( Belfast slang included)
Mahalo Nui Loa! (Thank you very much)
Never too old to learn. Would love to visit Ireland one of these days, but the chances of that are rather slim. I do love your poems. Compared to yours, mine are rather pedestrian, but not everybody can be a Renzi. 🙂
Never say never 😉 Awh thankyou, but remember, there's only one you and that is your magic 😊
Brilliant comedic contribution, Renzi! I like your Irish style!
Why thankyou kindly Louis 🙂
Super write Renzi, great fun and written in a great way, I understood it all and I am actually bi-lingual, I speak English and Rubbish.
Hahaha rubbish!!! Yayy now we're talking , i've got myself some qualifications in that haha! Much love
So ive been on this site a few days now and im working my way thru earlier stuff. Some is a bit too heavy going for me but this was such light relief, no explanations necessary, oh yeah so believeable you on hands and knees hiding from a nutter. Giggling here.
Awh why thankyou for taking the time to find it and read it. Sometimes.... When i'm not ranting, im banting some humour out 🙊And hey i swear on my golden nugget hair it's something i'd probably do haha!!
