Chris don't fret - your family
Will pop up -out the blue
Just when you think of giving up
They'll shock and startle you.

Mine-for now - can take a break
I've shelved my family tree
I've stuff to do, like clear my house
So the carpet I can see !

I got my lens put in my specs
My plant troughs in its place
Dads walking sticks fit in a basket
My son at school had made.

I tackled then the bed settee
One coat and then two
Shopping bags and handbags
I dont need four............do you ??

Bills football book I bought him
Is too big for the bookshelf
I've not a clue where that will go
Can only blame myself !

Least now our little bed settee
Is no longer a habitat
For 'stuff' like coats and bags
Next -mums china cabinet !

The cabinet itself is fine
It's just what''s underneath
There's a box a stuff came from my Dads
What else ? It's beyond belief.

But I found some bags of money
(No - not the Pendered gold!)
Some loose change I'd bagged up wrong
At the bank 'No' I was told.

Ten pences must be separate
To five p's - so I might
As football's on the tele
Count that all out tonight !

(AKA Mary)

How beautiful it is to do nothing and rest afterwards...
