Verse And Worse

Random Wit, Errant Rhyme. Not A Literary Crime

I’ve spent some time observin'
My next-door neighbour Mervyn
And when the road ain’t curvin'
He’s notorious for his swervin'

  6. There are too many people swerving on neighbourhood roads. They are mindless of children playing or seniors around.

  8. How are you dear David?! I'm swervin' around here myself on the internet, when I ought to be in bed really. I need to figure out the difference in time between US central and Australia. Is it afternoon there now? This will be my project for tomorrow...to find out the time difference between US central and Australia. (I have alot of time on my hands!!! Ha Ha!)
    All the best,
    Catherine

  9. It's not Mervyn King is it? He used to be able to steer the economy quite well but alas it has now gone off the road along with his car it seems! Eddie

  10. I don't think I have ever commented on these poems of yours although I enjoy them immensely: They never fail to make me smile.
    So much so that I suspect that some of their spirit might have got into me when I wrote ...
    Thanks for the smiles.

  12. It sounds like he's a drunk
    and I would have thunk
    though he might get in a funk
    that he'd be better off in the trunk.

  13. I think your neighbor Mervyn
    Was doing all his swervin'
    Cause he might have been drunk
    Or he thought he saw a skunk

  14. That’s because he took to drinkin’
    When the bank repo’d his shinny Lincoln
    Now pushin’ pedels has him thinkin’
    This darn recession sure is stinkin’

  15. I know I hardly ever leave a comment but I just wanted to say how important a visit to your place is to me every day. You have made me laugh and made me cry and lead me to visit places I would never have found on my own, thank you, Margaret
