Sticky Tape

When you wrap a present

Or sealing up an envelope

The end of the tape isn’t

Seen no matter how you hope

So you get your teeth

To see if they get ‘neath

That dodgy hidden end

That drives you round the bend

So out come the scissors

The battle for end withers

Now you can just go

Do what you need, you know?

But then the tape rolls off

You say something like *coff*

You scrabble on one knee

“I’ve lost the end” you plea

You find it once again

Your getting close to the end

Upon your task you fall

Without further stall

One piece torn and saved

Then you see its concaved

What are you to do

Get the bloody glue

A Bit Silly

I want to write a ditty

That sounds a bit witty

When I try to flow

For comedy you know

It all goes over there

Like the way of the pear

I like to have a laugh

Love to sing in the bath

Love to see people guffaw

Until they are sore

The only joke I know

I think this is how it go

..........

.........!

Bugger it, forgot!

Morning glory

For those that don’t know me I’m a romantic at heart

But like any man I wake up with a belch and a fart

I go into the bathroom to see what’s to see

And a balding old guy looks back at me

I brush my teeth and do my normal confusions

I am getting older are the only conclusions

With less and less hair every day

And guess what a beer belly on the way

I’m shuffling through the best I know how

With my child and my wife (not a silly cow)

I’m looking for happiness and to be less stressed

All I find is I’m older and not so well dressed

Its not so bad this getting older you know

Just so long as I relax and go with the flow

Red Sky

Look through the window to see the new day

What was it that those old Sheppard’s would say

Red sky at dawn is what Sheppard’s did warn

It’s a wonderful bright and frosty morn

What did the those old sheep workers really know

The day is promising with a warm glow

Spider web impenetrable in the ice

I look for a better way of saying “nice”

Crispy grass underfoot leaves an odd trial

I think what those sheep workers failed to nail

Is how wondrous this sight truly is

To see what I see I recommend this

Take your time, why not stop a short while

The world is beautiful just like a smile

Can I Help You

If you want to bend my ear

Tell me things your uncomfortable to hear

I’ll listen and maybe add some advice

You know what, helping makes me feel nice

I’ll offer you help and really listen

Validation and value is my side of the bargain

So if your feel lost please share your list

Selfish reasons make me want to assist

Being there for a friend that is my all

It makes me feel strong, valued and tall

So don’t apologise or try to hide

Helping others is great, and helps me inside

My Pets

My pets are the best

I call them all a pest

But for unconditional love

Meet my pet dove

When I’m feeling blue

You know what I do

I talk to my friends

Pets are best in the end

They look like they listen

When I am grief stricken

My dove makes me laugh

When she joins me in the bath

My cat gives a cuddle

After walking in a puddle

My rabbits just run

They have lots of fun

At the end of the day

You know what I say

I love my pets best

They’re not really a pest

Love Is…..

Love is wonderful love is blind

Love can make people extra kind

Love sneaks in and runs your life

Love stays with you through all strife

It catches you when your unsuspecting

It meets you from a different direction

It shows you thing you never knew

It keeps your thoughts pure and true

The best love to have is one to share

The true love that starts not over there

The real love comes from in yourself

The love of you is best for your health

The Sniffles

I have the sniffles but I am a man

I need a doctor as quick as you can

Have you never heard of man flu

This isn’t easy, I don’t wish it on you

When a man’s ill all else must stop

You think my acting is over the top

Being a man is quite bad enough

Having man flu makes it so tough

You say to me you’d take it away

I wish you would but not today

I’ll be fine once you go out

I’ll open the fridge and drink some stout

I’ll get a big sandwich six inches high

Packed with cholesterol to the sky

After I’ve eaten one or two pork pies

I’ll put my feet up and rest my eyes

I’ll turn on the play station and play a game

When you return I’ll say I feel the same

The mushroom soup and crusty bread

That with man my flu I get in bed

The extra attention and special care

The way you stop and caress my hair

Makes me feel important to you

All because I have Man Flu

If Music Be The Food Of What?

There is an old saying about the food of love

But the right music is manna from above

When I feel sad it makes me feel boppy

If needs be I change to something soppy

As mood enhancement to please a crowd

Turn it right up to extra loud

When your alone behind closed doors

Dance as you wish the pleasure’s all yours

Music is a quick hot wire to the soul

It passes the brain scoring a perfect goal

Whatever music pleases your ear

Keep it up loud we all want to hear

If music is any kind of food

Then what it stimulates is the mood

So choose your beats and rhythm with care

And let the music take your mood there

Ageism

The muddle of thoughts that make up yourself

The questions and doubts of what to do next

The stresses and strains and worries of wealth

Should neither leave you confused nor vexed

The wrinkles that start to show your real age

The first grey hair you pull out the hairbrush

The way you can better control your rage

Your getting older you don’t need to rush

The way you view life is no diff’rent now

The life that you have is stronger and bolder

The way others treat you may change somehow

You still feel twenty one so why act older

You can be just as young as you hope

A slightly younger partner is fun to grope

Inspiration

Okay here we go

Another ditty to spoil the flow

I look hard for inspiration

The sun got up with constipation

So I look to the skies

No inspiration meets my eyes

Then I try to look within

Oh no I am feeling grim

Music I hope will restore

This tired inspiration whore

Up I turn it way past eight

Dancing around and feeling great

Now I forget why I started

To think inspiration had parted

It is all around me now

So to music I do bow

Paul

(bit of an odd one, i was finding it hard to flow today ;) )

The Old Woman’s Story

There was an old woman who lived in a shoe

She had so many children but knew what to do

She cherished each one and told them stories

Took joy in relishing their personal glories

Each one knew they were loved and cared for

Respect was mutual and never a chore

Some were sports stars yet to be famous

Not a one could be called ignoramus

Yet more would help care for the little ones

Some excelled at learning tons and tons

You see the old woman was a fantastic mother

With love and support she gladly would smother

Each child was individual and encouraged to grow

In whatever direction they wished to go

The old woman was wise beyond compare

She didn’t worry that some paths were unclear

She knew the potential was extra strong

In those that don’t have a plan all along

So next time you hear the traditional rhyme

Remember the real stories not a crime

Day Off

I woke up this morning worry free

I decided I am allowed to be nice to me

So far I have eaten babybel cheese

Mika on the stereo turned up to please

I plan to have a huge long bath

Lots of bubbles to make me laugh

Three top ups of hot water at least

Maybe cleanse this tired old beast

The sun is shining bright and true

So here is what I decided to do

I am going to take a day off and free

From worrying about stuff and be nice to me

Paul

(this is the intention, wish me luck :D )
