It’s wet and windy – what to do?
Mum’s in bed with the flu.
I’ve found some cardboard and some glue,
Oooo and some ‘tack’ that’s very blue.
I’ll make Mum a present – perhaps a witch?
My imagination’s starting to itch
Although I know there’ll be a hitch;
Perhaps a mini-football pitch?
I’ll find some crayons to colour in,
And to hold together, a safety pin,
And to collect the mess, a rubbish bin.
Perhaps I should make a violin!
Or a car, a plane, or a kangaroo.
Will I need a Phillips screw?
What is the capital of Peru?
It’s wet and windy – what to do?
I’m bored now, that’s enough of that.
What’s on the telly? Postman Pat!
What’s he doing with that cricket bat?
And what’s happened to the black and white cat!?!

You get very over excited, very early, during the festive season don’t you? ……
…thank the Lawd I’m over here. That dame makes me dizzy sometimes. Other times my hands get tired holding my laptop upside down to understand her.
The things guys do for women. It’s a crime, I tell ya.
…. and people with no laptop either get a hernia, a bad back or a blood rush …… I suppose it would be possible to use mirrors ……
no comment here – the last time I commented in rhyme you went all morose!
No comment ……. how depressing ……. *sob*
I’m thoroughly scared now.
Back in 1993, I wrote a children’s poem of a similar vein… about a boy lying on a hill (bored)looking up at the sky and dreaming up all the things he could do.
Are you sure you don’t have some weird powers we don’t know about? I’m wondering if I’ve left the cauldron in the closet for too long….
1893!!!! ….. oh 1993 ….. that was only a couple of months ago wasn’t it?
Actually, I think you were right the first time. It was a typo. I really did mean 1893.
It won’t be long until the beginning of the 80’s was 30 years ago …… [I know that we've been talking about the 90's - I'm referring to a conversation I had with someone on the phone yesterday - why, I'm not too sure] …… tempus fugit
oh poor TG. This must be much worse than babysitting
*sulk* …….. *pout* ……… *bravely suppresses tantrum*
