He loved a drink did ol'Johnny McBeal
And offered to cook the thanksgiving meal
All the trimmings with turkey
For their friends and family
His wife agreed but no drink was the deal...
On the big day he was up before five
But with no drink knew he wouldn't survive
Found a bottle of sherry
Then started to get merry
Guests arrived and the bird was still alive...
Johnnys wife said " you've ruined thanksgiving
The turkeys gobbling and it's still living
There is no main course
I want a divorce
I'm upset and I won't be forgiving"...
She then reached out for a sharp carving knife
Johnny was shaking in fear for his life
She wanted the turkey dead
Who ran out the door and fled
Johnny thought she is one demented wife...
Johnny was determined to save the day
And phoned Mcdonalds for a takeaway
Ten turkey burgers arrived
Ol' Johnny's marriage survived
Then before dinner they knelt down to pray...
And what became of the McBeals turkey?
He was found terrified up in a tree
His poor life was spared
By someone who cared
Now lives in peace in a bird sanctuary...

A new society
Is Brexit more than Brexit
a dream of going back in time
when everything had a human dimension?
To physically eradicate the royalty
to take back thousands of acres stolen
by the aristocracy.
Leaving the cities as a bird sanctuary
go back to the land, a homestead with
a cow and a few chickens.
Living a sub-existence hunting boars
in the evening light; rivers teeming with fish.
Small shops selling the basic foodstuff
and a cobbler to repair shoes.
Poverty and freedom in the land of the proud
and begin a new dawn of equality.

In the midst of grass land,
there lie some cute white band.
They fly round here and there,
White cranes grin with their pair
Glimpse of black birds greet me.
"New Birds"?Face shines with glee.
"No...We are your old friends"
Crows cried, ours will not end!
A chase scene caught my eyes.
Two big birds,fought like guys.
Oh! a life and death fight?
"Warm up fight" said the kite.
Wow!Here comes my dream bird,
with white smooth skin, like curd
See the hues on its tail,
shades of fresh red but pale
Can you guess its sweet name?
A stork, a true good fame.
Some great things, these birds share,
that we all need to care.

Thor is a place with birds in a pond.
Many birds; some small, some blonde
Few birds come as the seasons demand.
Come and visit Thor with Sanket to remand
All the known and unknown birds beyond.
Thor is a place with birds in a pond.
Let it be cashew or nut or almond,
Bring any thing for birds with monde
And see many types of birds beyond
The island, colours that birds donned.
Thor is a place with birds in a pond.
Few birds are black, and few blonde;
Canteen ready with food on demand,
Garden with plants having leaves frond,
Pond with birds different on demand.
Thor is a place with birds in a pond.
Security guards allow us, on demand,
To take cameras to view and shoot monde
Of varied birds here and beyond.
So, visit Thor with Pari Style in a pond.

I have.
I have an Olympic size swimming pool;
well actually its just a bath.
I have a snooker table;
well no not really its two balls in a sack.
I have an expensive bracelet;
alright I don't its an elastic band with some glitter glued on that's just snapped.
I've got a Ferrari car;
you know I don't actually I have a Peugeot and its colour is somewhere in between bright orange and a burnt sort of cr*p.
I have a bird sanctuary;
no I don't I have a garden and some trees in the back.
I live in a mansion;
a semi detached house with three bedrooms and a bathroom that you couldn't literally swing a rat.
I have a Gibson guitar;
well an acoustic guitar that I got free from a charity shop with 5 strings and no god damn strap.
I have millions of friends;
I have a girlfriend and the voices in my head and a one eyed sixteen year old black farting cat.
I have a message;
well its not really a message but just to say that all that I've got I appreciate and you might want to think about that.
