It's horrible to be home alone
When it's time for tea
And you don't have a scone
When you're in in a jam , wthout any jam
I gave a scream, I've finished the cream!
When you're alone, what to do about that?
I grabbed a pink jacket, black purse and white hat
I hurried down to the seven eleven
(In truth it was Tesco, which won't rhyme with heaven)
The man at the till gave a glum hello
And glum goodbye when I had to go
It's what you buy, not who you know
He's working, I should be happy at home
***
Then today it was tea for two
We had no scones, what to do?
What could we make? Not a pancake
We had pancakes yesterday, too
We found a crumpet
Too early to dump it
We know what to do to save
Heat it up in the microwave
By mistake we grabbed marmalade
Does anyone know why that doesn't go?
Maybe too sour when a crumpet is sweet
Hot crumpets with butter are great to eat
Add black currant jam
I lick my lips
It's on foodies' top ten list
With chicken and chips
The thought of food will banish sorrow
Think of what you'll eat tomrrow
If you can't, then think of today
If starving today, think of yesterday
When I die and come back
To say what I've seen
I'll talk about feasts of scones, jam and cream
Just like a cat with a smile at a dream..
