CELIA'S POEMS

No 365       March 15

Celia just having a laugh.

This week will be a milestone,

I’ve completed one whole year,

It’s kept us all together,

Although we’ve not been near.

It helps me to keep going,

When these poems I have to send,

I hear Ladbrokes are taking bets,

If I can go until the end.

So go and get your money on,

You know I won’t give in,

I’ve a very competitive spirit,

And always want to win.

But please don’t go to Ladbrokes,

Although on anything they bet,

I think I’m not just in there,

‘cause they don’t know about me yet.

Of course if they should see my book,

They’d lay good odds and maybe boast,

“An 84 going all the way,

She’ll fall at the last post”.

Well as I said, they don’t know me,

But their eyes might leave their socket,

When all my “bubbles” collect their cash,

And they’re well out of pocket.
