HUMOUR

I've lost my sense of humour

Can't think when I had it last

I know it was there

When I cut my own hair

But that was three weeks past

I'm wondering where I've left it

I'm thinking where could it be

I had it in town

When I squeezed in  that gown

I was sure a 12 would fit me

You know I've just had a thought

My daughter was giggling last night

A sight rarely seen

From my cross, crabby teen

Perhaps she took it in spite

Has she taken my sense of humour

Along with everything  I own

Not content with  just money

She wanted my funny

And has left me with her moan and groan

Will I live like this forever.

No smiles, just narks and niggles

Maybe its worth

All the humour on earth

To see her in fits of the giggles

Okay girl, you can keep it

But remember if I'm on your case

When my humour is flowing

I'm  more easy going

And less likely to be in your face

On second thoughts, just keep some

Throw humour into the pot

I know a teen

is moody and mean

But why not give laughing a shot

A dream is just a dream

Until you write it down

Then a dream becomes a goal

A yearning from your soul

A striving from your heart

A place from which to start

A goal is just a goal

Until you have a plan

Then a goal becomes more real

With ambition you can feel

And a longing deep inside

With a step by step life guide

One day I will have a dream

Then I will make a plan

Meantime I'll just muddle through

Doing the very best I can

The question and exclamation marks

Got into a fight

The one never knows the answer

The other's always right

The full stop took offence

About the comma's tail

It made him feel inadequate

A punctuation fail

The powerful apostrophe

Divides and separates

While the posh looking hyphen

Has double-barrelled traits

But the winner of this event

For me, has to be

The ellipsis, with its dot, dot, dot

It goes on eternally...

I didn't know I suffered, 

But now I know I do

Can you guess my OCD

Is it plain enough for you

I'm obsessed with post count totals

They haunt me in the night

I even saw my doc who said

You know you're never right

So now I have a number

Of which I'm very proud

It's time for me to make my mark

And stand out in the crowd

The time has come to make a vow

In silence I shall sit

Minutes? Hours? Days? Rejoice

Without my talk of shi... rubbish

So once again, I cannot bear

To break my row of noughts

Comments now I want to make

Will have to stay as thoughts

Until the mighty task ahead

Has been truly met and faced

Shall I ever post again? 

Or stay in second place

She walks like me

She talks like me

She dresses like me

Apparently

But what a to do

For the lady who

Thinks we're two

Unfortunately

She lives by me

She smiles like me

She laughs like me

Apparently

I said, Why not try

To both saying 'Hi'

But she's quite shy

Unfortunately

So on we go

But at least I know

Why she says hello

Occasionally

It is with regret that I write today

We desperately need another way

I speak for many when I say

We don't want a Brexit day

3 years ago, we booked the boat

to sail from the EU, was the vote

Now, if we're to stay afloat

It's time, Mrs M, to get your coat

Many months have brought changes in views

No longer brain-washed and confused

Much of the UK wants to choose

Another referendum, win or lose.
