Handy Idioms comic poem 500 by Angela Lansbury




I thought, I ought to brush up

My German, then I thought

There must be lots of idioms

Which I have not been taught

 

You are not an idiot

If you can't understand

We English use idioms

It has got out of hand


On the other hand

Writing Every Day's Wrongs


I ought to write every day

I wish this thought would go away

Do what I think, not do and say

Then you could read me every day.


They say that writing clears your mind

Of things which should be left behind

Unfortunately love is blind

Re-living past wrongs is unkind.


Some things are better left unsaid

Unwritten, buried with the dead

Will writing really clear your head?

Move on's what mother often said


So now I see what holds me back

The barrier, the will I lack

I have exposed that fatal fact

That child's ear thought holds my hand back.

A Good Sight For Your Site's Insights

Beware of bare bears.


A Good Sight For Your Site's Insights

I'll share my thoughts, like well-kept shares
Be bold and bare what I can't bear
Writers who mix up there and their
And mix the mix of Ware and where

Some poor souls are not poor, but pour
Their hearts out like bleeding harts, uncertain
Whether to hang themselves
Or just be hung like curtains

I shall not keep you hanging on
For you may be as busy as a bee
And keep on trying to earn your keep
So my dear friend please note this note

I'm near the end, the end is nigh,
Di's die is cast, it's do or dye
Pat pats my hand, there there, that's that
I'll send the dear deer end, and end - just like that.
-ends-
