You're My Honey Bee comical poem 595 by Angela Lansbury

Bee and honeycomb. Wiki article on bees.

  I heard a little buzzing bee

And that reminded me of me

When you are buzzing at my door

And then I thought and thought some more

I saw a little honey bee

And that's like you, calling on me

I'm your honey and you're my bee

And that's the way it's meant to be

But then a saw a flying fly

Annoying me as it flew by

I thought of us and wondered why

I think of you and doubt and sigh

I wonder if you'll fly away

And leave me all alone one day

I've thoughts which I don't like to say

I want to have a happy day

I heard you buzzing at my door

I thought my happy thoughts once more

As all who know us, say they see

We look just like two honey bees

Honey makes treats sweet to eat

I'll give you honey when we meet.

I think you're wise, You think I'm funny

I like your eyes, I am your honey

We are just like two honey bees

The perfect pair, just you and me.

When You Were Sleeping comic poem number 428 by Angela Lansbury

Where do you go to

When you're fast asleep

Up in the clear sky

Down in the dark deep?

Are you sweet and loyal

And in my loving arms

Or falling for others

Seduced by a ghost's charms?

Are you tidying up

In frantic, worried rush

Putting superstition

In its place in the trash

Or muddling our chatting

What we did in the day

Instead of tidying

Our memories away?

'You've slept for too long, dear

Now you won't sleep tonight!'

I hope in my long sleep

My mind put the world right.'

My minds taken a hike

Through my minutes and hours

I just need to sort out

Life's weeds from the flowers

My mind is upgrading

It's in for a repair

Needs a good overhaul

Like you washing your hair

It's doing its sorting

No call out and no cost

It's doing a clear out

Looking for what you've lost

But while you were sleeping

The whole world has moved on

Will I wake to summer

And find war has moved on?

I hope all this sleeping

Will help curing my health

I'll write down what I learned

As a note to myself.

Worse Troubles! comic poem 215 by Angela Lansbury

When the swimming pool water is cold

It's better to remember

Worst troubles at sea

It's colder in snow in December

I look out of my spotted window

And see that it is dismally raining

I could be out there, soaking, hiking

In a pak-a mac, so stop complaining

When you are suffering an itch

Its better to recall

The problems of the very rich

Who fear to lose it all

When your snack's too salty

Or maybe it's too sweet

Give it to the poor insects

The dear things don't care what they eat

You might have constipation

A dead insect's in the toilet bowl

Flushed, it's half gone

Half''s a bit better than whole

Could it have been a cricket?

At first I thought a gecko

Alive, No, dead. I didn't know

Whatever, friends, it had to go!

When you have lost a loving friend

Think of the good things flippantly said

Just think, would you be happier

If both of you were dead?

If you don't like this poem

I'll put things right somehow

Put you out of your misery

By ending it all (the verse) now.

What good have I done today

To make your day and mine worthwhile?

A waste of time, of yours and mine?

No. It's always worthwhile to smile.
