Late Summer Writing (2) by Alan Ewing








Late Summer Writing (2) by Alan Ewing

 




THE GREAT CHEESE DEBATE: Everybody knows it's made from Cow's milk' said Bertie. 'Not so', piped up Tommy, "It grows on Cheese Plants like my dad told me!" Graham laughed: 'You're both wrong. The Moon is made of cheese, as Wallace & Gromit proved. It gets imported to Earth by rockets!'


 


AI Gerl

Excuse me!
I asked.
Why should I?
She replied
Can you comply?
I requested.
No! I can't.
She answered.
Do you mind?
I stated.
Not a bit.
She said.
It was funny
And was sunny
She took time
No friend of mine
It was all AI
Latest model
Developed fault
Not worth its salt
Her name was Pepper.


 




101 Labradors

All I wish for is 101 Labrador puppies
With Siamese kittens to match
I'd be such a very happy yuppy
If life allow this without a catch 

A few years to go with economics
Till I can find a bit of Peace
You know I'll go supersonic
When I finally find release

Sometimes I tire and want to be with The Lord
I long for Him to arrive to avenge with sword
Though I know that Love is so complicated
And I do not wish to end up exasperated

I just long for domestic bliss in life
Like cosying down after a day
With loved ones who actually care
And it's not put down to heresay

And so I wish for 101 Labrador puppies
With Siamese Kittens to match
For what is life without an aim?
A silly old troubled and futile game




 


The Great Cake

This was the day of the cake. Gerald had staked everything upon it to impress Geraldine. He told her that it would be the greatest cake ever made. It would blow off the Victoria Sponges, Swiss Rolls and Bakewell Tarts. Nothing would ever match it in history for sure. He was convinced that he would win her.
Come the day for his presentation to her, Gerald ended up in a mess. His cake was flat because he forgot to put in the Baking Powder. He was mortified. How could this happen? He had forgotten his own ingredient - arrogance. Geraldine laughed and said that it was a piece of cake to walk out upon him.


 



BLONDE GAG: How many blondes does it take to change a light-bulb? Answer: Too many! 


 


My Church of England Rosary Bead

My Church of England
Rosary Bead
Means so much
At my touch

Not Roman Catholic
Anglo Catholic
My dedication
Oh my frustration

I pray for Love 
To reign
An end
To war and pain 

I need Resurrection
Within my soul
Holy Ghost
Is my goal

My Church of England
Rosary Bead
Means so much
At my touch


 


Fizz

I got in a bit of a tizz 
Bottle of pop went fizz
Tried a little Brandy
Made me go randy
A Mrs from a Mizz

Tried to get my head
Together all said
Into a state of finesse
Tried for the best
I'd be better off dead

Tried to make amends
Ended up with dead-ends
You're taking the joke
When you really do poke
At the love that I send

Going out of my mind 
You are really so kind
For a great cup of tea
That made me see
All that I could find

So now my mind is clear
It's very easy to steer
To where I should go
I'd like you to know
All is well around here


 

Move On

When I move on
I'll move
faster than sound
in a groove

When I walk on
no talk
silence of footsteps
I'll heed all sorts

When I leave you
just so
speed of movement
I will go

When it is time
on clock
take my steps
key in lock 

When comes dawn
I will leave
que on time
you better believe


 



Frustration

When nobody is on your level
Like tuning in an old FM radio
When you feel like everyone 
Is playing the devil

When you feel you are going 
Out of your mind
And feel inclined
To go out and do some sowing

When life has brought you
All lemons, no lemonade
When nothing makes any sense
I've been there too

When there seems to be
Nobody around
Not even a sound
It gets hard to see

Though know that moments
Are only still
And you find within yourself
A symphonic thrill

Is
You
Driving 
Me
Around 
The
Bend
