Facebook

How are you doing? facebook keep’s asking me
Well as I am on their page surely they can see
I am sitting in my home on my laptop
Looking to see what new things they have got

Informing, amusing comments to keep up with friends
That’s my intention to see what it sends
But I know folk who have reasons to gripe
Because someone said things that were not nice

We know who can see the posts that we send
So remember this before you post anything that
could bring a friendship to end
It’s a nice social tool if you use it the right way
It can make the difference between a nice or sad day

So the next time you click on your facebook page
Don’t do it if you are in a temper to rage
Remember to read what you write before you press send
and I am sure you will then keep every facebook friend

Valentine's Day is coming....

We are at that time of year once more
When lovers declare their love to the one they adore
Yes Valentine’s day is almost here
But of it’s history are you clear

Various legends have been written but which are true
No-one knows but the one I favour and will tell to you
Is about a roman in they year 269AD
Who refused to give up his belief in Christianity

Whilst imprisoned he befriended his jailers daughter
and before he was taken to his fate of being slaughtered
He wrote a note to this lady signing it “from your Valentine” 
I wonder what is said - surely not “will you be mine”.

So if you are sending a Valentine to the person in your life
You may need a little help to make it just right
You will find many original poems by clicking this link http://www.getwellversed.com/valentine-poems.html
Because declaring your love can be harder than you think

If I Won The Lottery

If I won the lottery what would I do ?
Would it change my life? - well I suppose it has to
Pack in your job  - that’s what most folk do
Well I retired 2 years ago so that would not be new

Buy a bigger house - what at my age I don’t think so
Making extra household chores which get harder you know
A new car, sporty, snazzy or what
To tell the truth I am happy with the little one I’ve got

Travel - go to exotic places and lie around in the sun
Do I want the hassle? not really it has ceased to be fun
Treat your family and friends - make life easier for them all
Yes that is a one I would value it would be a good call

Taking away the worry of having enough cash to do
No worry when things need done and it does not need to be done by you
Yes I like that one it takes away the stress
Having the funds to call a man when you are in a mess

It is quite obvious that the lottery should be won by the young
Then they can appreciate the spending it takes to have fun
So my conclusion is it would be very nice
To help friends and family but for me my needs are sufficed

It's All Over For Another Year

It’s all over - bit the dust
Yes Christmas all done - no more fuss
Decorations put away for another year
Yes I know its not 12th night and the room looks bare

But I am pleased to be back into routine
and I am sorry if that sounds a bit mean
But it is a lot of extra work you must admit
and harder when you are older and not so fit

Christmas is for children who love it I know
and for parents who watch their offspring’s faces glow
So when you have passed this time in your life
You should be excused from this Christmas strife

This moan I know shows off my advancing years
and the coughing bug added to my don’t cares
So will I be doing this all again in eleven months time
Probably because we follow traditions and tow the line
