OLD MA. Old Ma always gave the kids a nice treat Always nuts and never anything sweet But they soon found out why Nuts were in great supply Choc nut bars she'd only suck cos no teeth... NO HIDING PLACE. An old gangster robbed a bank and he ran Flew out from Canada then onto Japan The Mounties tracked him down In old Tokyo Town He was caught cos they always get their man... A WARDROBE MALFUNCTION Went to a posh restaurant called Vicars A girl walked out the loo, there were titters Her face turned a bright red At what's every girls dread She'd gone and tucked her dress down her knickers... DOMINATRIX. A dominatrix from the state of Maine Enjoyed hanky panky out in the rain She'd use a leather fetter T'would shrink as it got wetter And her clients would pass out with the pain.. A FRIEND IN NEED. The outback two mates went to catch a 'roo One got cut short and said "I need the loo" A spider crawled up his knee As he was starting to pee And bit him hard on his digeridoo... His mate phoned the flying doctor who said "Suck out the Poison if it has turned red" He thought to himself no way His mate said "well what's he say?" He said "in 'bout half an hour you'll be dead" ... LOST THEIR WAY. For Gershon Wolf Geese flew south they were honking and hinking Snow storm came they were blinded and blinking They had no way of knowing Where the hell they were going To see them sway you'd think they'd been drinking... Written 21st October 2020.

These are all terrific, Tom! Especially liked the "wardrobe malfunction" and "A Friend in Need." Bet Gershon loves the one you wrote for him. Sooo funny! Sorry it took me so long to visit. Been busy at home. Sending hugs, Carolyn
