Teach the little ones to pray

It will help them through their toughest day

Teach the little ones to eat

It will set them up with the top elite

Teach the little ones to love

It will help their hand fit into the glove

Teach the little ones to sleep

It will restore their body, like little bo-peep

Teach the little ones to smile

It will get them over many a style

Teach the little ones to hope

When you’re gone, it will give them hope.

 

 

 

 

Simpleton’s sausages won all the awards,

and were packed with flavour and taste.

They sat perfectly with creamy mash

and  ‘Toad in the hole’ next day

meant little waste.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Do it with dignity

Show some pride

Ride a white swan

to the other side.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lead him not into temptations path,

for he is a succour for life on the wild side.

And will embrace all that is on offer,

on a reckless, roller coaster ride.

Auntie Nellie loved strawberry jelly,

Uncle Bertie loved fruity tarts.

Uncle Bertie preferred to watch darts.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The deal is struck and

adrenaline’s running high.

The build up has been mind blowing

But to the bonus, wave goodbye.

 

 

 

 

Go outside and mix.

Join the world.

Talk to anyone, smile

at everyone you pass.

Sit on the grass and

people watch.

Interact.

Just get off those

confounded contraptions

and LIVE

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lacking in table manners, they

eat like chimps in the zoo.

Shovelling it in and gobbling

it down, without so much

as a chew!

 

 

 

 

 

 

He was willing to leave

his roots to be with her.

But she wouldn’t hear of it,

and thus spent the rest of her

life wondering – what if?

 

 

 

 

 

Under normal circumstances

such an idea would have been

unthinkable.  She’d already been

warned that sorrow she would drink.

But she was lead by her stubborn

foolhardiness, and unable, clearly to think.
