Ordinary Strangers

Ordinary Strangers

He was quaintly known as Dennis
Kept a jar of pickled pennies
From heaven or Las Vegas
In a shed behind the door

Drove a bright green Morris Minor
Every Sunday he would shine her
With a modicum of decorum
Took him hours - up to four!

His favourite films were Westerns
Never failed to tape the best 'uns
Liked to ramble near the brambles
You could see him on Mam Tor

Often pottered in the garden
When he trumped, he did say pardon
Collected spanners, kept his manners
Loyal like a poodle, that's for sure

Worked at the local shoe shop
Took his lunch, pickled eggs and cheap pop
What followed? A pickled penny he swallowed
Choked and was seen no more

Thank you Amy. I know a couple of lines have too many syllables, but am working to improve that. Currently have bits of paper all over the house with disconnected words connected together....

Did you get the Pennies from Heaven?
And Heaven or Las Vegas is a Cocteau Twins album.

I like throwing stuff like that into the mix.

Not So Ordinary Strangers.

Pickled pennies taste like copper
So I think you’ve told a whopper
And I know that you’re a spinner
Cos I’ve heard your yarns before

You write a real mean poem
But from the truth you often roam
With your verbal discrepancies
Though I’d like to hear some more

I like it mostly when you’re flirtin
Show your legs and lift your skirt and
Pretend that you’re a younen
Though we know you’re forty four

I might be past three score and ten
But me blood still boils like younger men
When I see a set of gorgeous legs
Especially legs like yours

But I think it’s time for me to stop
Me typing finger just went “Pop”
Me back is also hurting bad
And me flamin bum is sore.

You mentioned big bellies and laughter, I see
So I’ll tell you a yarn that was told to me
It’s about a young girl who kept sucking her thumb
And the lie that was told to her by her mum

If she kept up the habit, her belly would swell
As big as a beach ball and that would be hell
The lie must have worked, she stopped sucking her thumb
But the crux of this story is still yet to come

That child was out walking and happened to see
A pregnant young woman as BIGGG as could be
She then spat from her mouth the gum she was chewing
And said to the woman-----“He he he he, I know----- what you’ve been doing.”
