Funny Friends - comic poem 498 by Angela Lansbury


 

The more that I know you

The more that I like you

That's just why I like you

'cos we're so much alike


I often like to guess

What you're going to say

That's why I interrupt

In my annoying way


Yet we are so different

It's always a surprise

Open mouth, up eyebrows

And four astonished eyes


We have so much to do

And we've so much to say

We can do all your way

Maybe do some my way


That is why we take turns

To laugh, smile, listen, speak

I feel I've at last found

The perfection I seek


When you've gone far away

Texting like you're still here

Your face photos with me

Yes, no and, I know, dear


Friends at first ignore you

Puzzled, ask what I see

You dress and look diff'rent

Yet you speak just like me.


Recall that last, long day

Fine, fun food, together

We made indoor sunshine

Despite outdoor weather.
