Diary 2025 photo by Angela Lansbury. Copyright.
What goes into my diary
Is all chosen by me.
I can note dentists, doctors, bills.
Or jokes and joys and thoughts and thrills.
Some say life's a river, some say life's a stream
Some say all's for a reason, others, there's no scheme
Some say it's all conspiracy
Words hide half of what they mean
Everybody has at least one story to tell
Thoughtful wise ones of all ages
Divide life into fixed stages
But say the best revenge is living well
Dramatise the ups and downs
Into scenes with frowns and clowns
Keep the story spnning round and round
Everywhere delights of days and nights are found
The bad, the sad, the mad, the glad
The boy and girl, the mum and dad
The older and the younger, the enemy and friend
Choose your last words, make your happy end.
-ends-
