How Easy

The other day I had to nip to the local optitions to get my OHs glasses
fixed. Before I went I had my coffee and was sat in the conservatory looking at the weather. Would it rain? And this thought came into my head, so I just had to jot it down.
How easy it was just to jump in the car
To turn the ignition and travel afar
Just nip to the shops, to travel to work
Never once did I think that it was a perk.
Now that has all changed, mostly a scooter I ride
What should I wear is what I have to decide
Is it a coat or a jumper, a scarf and a hat
Will the weather change before I get back.
All togged up and ready to go
Why does this thing have to go so slow?
I know the shops are not very far
But oh how I wish I could jump in the car!

That was really good. Do you do a lot of poetry, you should if you dont.

Yay! You finished it and with some style. I think we can all empathise with that, Julie, life used to be straightforward and easy, things could be done without a moment's thought and as for the notion of payback . . . well, that didn't exist. How times change. DDHave you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben0
