Constance La France Poet Limerick

Notes About The Poem

Nursing Home Fred

Once there was a nursing home man called Fred,
at night he was found in an old gals bed;
with a great big happy smile,
his pajamas in a pile;
when questioned- "THIS is my dead wife" he said !

David Mchattie May 19, 2019 at 11:30 AM That could be a touching moment or something really creepy. I'm going to go with first one. Have a great day my friend. Constance La France May 19, 2019 at 3:42 PM David, yes it is both when you think about it, touching thinking about the old guy still looking for his wife and creepy thinking about the poor old lady waking to find a stranger cuddled up in her bed !
