IT'S THE SUNDAY BEFORE CHRISTMAS

And all through the house
nothing much's happened
not even a douse..

Of water to the kitchen floor
cos I was ill and stomach sore
I sat upon the sofa where
I fell asleep and didn't care

That Christmas cards were needing posting
presents wrapped and almonds toasting
Decisions made about the dinner
was I even getting thinner ?

but now the bug as finally fled
off to take over someone elses head
and sit them on a sofa where
they'll just rest and no longer care

So now the work has fianlly begun!
off just like a loaded gun
Cards await the postman's catch
Decisions made and presents wrapped

But Bruno's tale will now take place
looking back , cos we cannot race
with only two more days to go
Too short for such a tale of woe !

Is it woe? we'll have to wait and see
but that sweet boy will hopefully
get his granny's present done
before the years a different one!

  2. I'm sure granny won't mind getting Bruno's present a little late. She is, after all, a very practical lady and is sure to appreciate an after Christmas bargain. Glad to hear that you are on the mend.
