Clothes For Valentine's Day. Comical poem 732 by Angela Lansbury

Name a few things you can't resist

Chocolates, roses, your hand kissed 

I'm excited seeing sequins

I'm delighted buying bargains

In romantic candle-lit rooms

Slowly breathing in heady perfumes

Sparkling water, wine or Champagne

Bubbles say I love you again!

If you still need a Valentine

Find one who wants to pass the time

Match-making at singles dinners

Propose marriage, wedding winners

One day this thought climbed in my head

At my age I ought to be wed

Dating singles was not fun

With number two practise wedding one

I must admit that I'm surprised

We're still here fifty years done

Although we argue every hour

We make coffee and carry on

The secret is to send good wishes

Hand-made cards and do the dishes

Good wishes to all Valentines

Hope yours will last as long as mine.

-ends-

I changed 

Hope yours will be as good as mine

to

Hope yours will last as long as mine

Drink More comic poem 418 by Angela Lansbury

 I think I need another drink

The drink I need's not what you think

I need drinks of sparkling water

That's the drink which I need after

I see the room of jollity

Where most are drinking more than me

What kind of company they keep!

That much wine would put me to sleep!

I see groups, serious drinkers

Expert tasters, genned up thnkers

They swirl, take notes and then they spit

Don't look like they like it a bit

But even when I merely sip

Soon no armomas meet my nose

I must admit I wriggle toes\\

Spill water on my shrimking clothes

I see teens full of  loud laughter,

Sharing some jokes, they shout and scream.

Someone says, dear, you've had enough

They're such a killjoy, so it seems

I think I know what I must do

Make a quick dash towards the loo

And then return to drink some more

Some more of what I liked before.

I like a drink full of bubbles

A sparkling wine to pop all troubles

Prosecco, cava or Champagne

Whatever it was, I'll have it again.
