Come on then Rose
Before you disappear
Give us a rhyme
One we'd like to hear

Or maybe a rhyme
Saying what is what
Only you know how
Give us what you've got




''Tis ok...I'll stop now...am even driving myself up the wall. :-D

Rambling Rose she joined a site
it was her first, well what a fright.
She fell so hard into the fire
finding laughter and desire.
So many tales she cannot tell,
(the viper who can go to hell
is still a niggle in her heart)
But what to say?Just where to start?
Best perhaps just draw the veils
as into sunset Rosie sails.

For Susan lol

Boris was a spider
at least when i was young
I know he was because the Who
put him in a song.

.......


Theresa May, or she may not
meet the country's needs
but what I do appreciate's
the size of her big beads.

.........

Gove is gone
there is no rhyme
that can express my glee
he's not the kind
of little man
I'd want to pour my tea.

......


Osbourne too
is now 'nobody'
I always thought
he looked like Noddy
without the bell.
But with a car
I hope he will go fast and far

...

Farage the frog? what can i say?
his demise would make my day
I wish for him the death he'd choose
pickled in a vat of booze.
That's as far as in my mind
I can approach to being kind. :-)

.......

Goodbye DC, you weren't my fave
but in farewell, a better Dave
who thanked his wife and children sweet
standing there in Downing street.

So cost me £17.96 this year Rose.

:-D :-D :-D very funny

They charge me £ 7.50 for 6 months OR I can have the special offer of £ 19.50 for a year. Originally I paid £ 7.50 pa but they hosed me for renewing a month late a while back.

Given the ho hum security of the site I use PayPal which has the added advantage that I control the transaction not GR.

Come on Rose you can't leave until you have found Harriet Louisa Whetman.

Rambling Report 17 Jul 2016 16:42

:-) It's not just here, I find it is more of an effort to post anywhere ( partly due to my eyes, and hand and arthritis lol ) I think I have just run out of enthusiasm, becoming more reclusive in all ways really lol . Maybe some time away and finding other things to do may make a difference.

Ann you are much more sociable than me :-) so you will always have people to talk to ( I mean by that that you contribute a lot on the gardening thread, and G readers and other long running threads which I have only ever popped in and out on)
:-)

Tenerife Sun, I am as sure as I can be that I won't find Harriett, I think she was one of the unrecorded deaths, and that it maybe accounts for her mother being in a asylum after the time when Harriett was last recorded. . That much I have found out that her mother died in the asylum, depression caused by the death? I'ts just a supposition though.

The trouble is Rose, probably if you stop using your hands they won't get the exercise they need. My Mum had arthritis in her hands and she delicerately kept knitting do they didn't sieze up. However, I sympathise re your eye problem, that must be really frustrating. Is there nothing that can be done?

Be way, you haven't lost your touch, love the poems. I am hopeful that a U3A creative writing group is going to start in this village soon.

More exercise would help my knees Ann ( the arthritis) but not my hand which is RSI ( I think, waiting to see if physio will help next month ).

Good to hear that there might be a writers group setting up for you :-)
