The best days have gone away,
Your clear thoughts have gone astray,
You walk with a limp,
Bad case of the piles,
Hoping it will blow over,
Like a tornado,
Rattling the tiles,
Your job does not pay well,
The bills are getting higher,
You have offended the loyal cat,
And the goldfish called you are liar,
The ants in the sugar are not happy,
Because you bought the discount brand,
And when you were cutting out coupons,
You almost cut off your hand,
There are many things that could go right,
And many more that could wrong,
You tried to heed the advice,
But smiling was not your type of song,
So when the tree falls on your house,
Or the home is overrun with a mouse,
Do not exaggerate it could be worse,
It is not some end of the world curse,
Just something to laugh at,
So breathe in once again,
See it is not you to blame,
And remember to laugh you nutter!
And that annoying fly,
Is beating you ten nil,
On the game console Wii,
And the postman is pissing on your drive,
The car has out of date tax,
And the tyres are bold as brass,
What you need to do,
To keep yourself alive,
And keep the bailiffs from the door,
And keeping up some pride,
And slipping on a banana skin,
Means you failed to disagree,
You cracked the steamed up mirror,
And now you are thinking, silly,
With all the germs they imported,
From an exotic land called Germany,
They would have thought better,
To contact Frank in France,
If I’d known earlier,
That another war was to break out,
I would have changed my underpants,
And they say the grass is always greener,
On the other side of the wall,
But did you see all the additives and colours,
Toxic tastes and all,
You won’t get me dancing on your toxic green,
I’d rather take my chances,
Under the foreign trees so evergreen,
And when the whole world goes to pot,
And there does not seem to be a plan,
Remember to smile for a while,
And remember while you can,
And don’t forgot the golden rule,
And how not to become a fool,
Look in the mirror, start to grin,
And then smile you nutter!
I wish I was a genius,
And getting recognition,
For something,
Bright and new,
But here I am,
A poet,
Writing verse,
On my points of view,
Finding the right blend,
Of sweet saviour words
As if I was making coffee,
Don’t you know?
Did you ever see?
Such exquisite taste,
In your poetry?
I wish I was genius,
Wining a noble prize,
Getting headline news,
Whilst getting soap in my eyes,
Shining and fresh,
Straight from the shower,
My brain cells would,
Multiply by the hour,
But here I am a poet,
Low down on the score,
Only one person reviews my work,
I would like some more,
But I should be grateful,
For the thousand eBooks downloaded,
Even if it means,
I will
