A womans. Poem
He didn’t like the Casserole and he didn’t like my cake ,
He said my biscuits were too hard ,not like his mother used to make.
I didn’t make his coffee right , he didn’t like my stew,
I didn’t fold his pants the way his mother used to do,
I ponder for an answer, I was looking for a clue,
Then I turned around and smacked the sh.. out of him, like his mother used to do !

Re: A womans. Poem
HI John
I like it, I like it.
I started reading when I was about four or five, I used to hear nothing as I read, in the end my Mother who was crippled used to put a row of teaspoons near her chair and throw then at me when she wanted my attention, I'm sure some of the lumps on my head are from her spoons.

Ah Des, sad tales indeed.
We had a grandpa who played the spoons, problem was he only knew one tune.


Happy daze John in Oz.
