 Through The Eyes Of A Poet...

Old Age Or What?


I've been thinking about the weather,
Cos I'm feeling oh, so cold,
And I can't wait for Summer,
If I could be, so bold.
I've always hated Summer,
Winter's always been the best for me,
Cos I've always been so hot,
And that won't do you see.
But now I've changed me mind,
Cos me body's gone into shock,
It think's it's 90 years old,
And I can't wear a frock!
I live in trackie trousers,
Cos they are nice and warm,
And I wear 2 coats in the house,
So I won't come to harm.
I've always got the fire on full,
And there's trouble in my home,
Cos everyone else is sweating,
And they won't leave me alone!
My blood is all thinned out,
And me tablets are a pain,
But they won't take me off them,
So now…I'm cold again!
So, roll on the Summer,
Let's me get some heat,
Or all this ruddy cold,
Is gonna knock me off me feet!
