A map of Europe spread across the floor
No adults there to keep the score
As each of them wanted more and more

Three of four empires lay upon that map
As they...

And went to...

With our dog contently watching him
All rubbish items were thrown to the ground
Ready to go in the big hire bin

Very late the same  evening while we...

There was a knock on my door,
It made my heart thumbing indoor,
Chappy lips and sweaty hands along my heart so sore.
 
On the third knock my heartbeat skyrocketed.
Panic was banging all over my body,
Distant noise...

for she landed herself a true prince
Our dear handsome Harry, was never contrary
But the Queen he had to convince

The sound of laughter
From the belly
Grandpa's stomach
Wobbling like jelly
Baby clapping hands with glee
A very joyous sight to see.

Everybody's worries vanish,
Frowning faces 
Today are banished
Family woes are left unspoken
Promises made
Will not be broken

Concerns left outside the...

I’ve made some money,

But she’s made more.

Knock knock!

Another punter at the door.

I slip on my shoes,

Put my lipstick on.

But I have to have...

As green and sweet smelling as freshly cut grass	
out in a meadow in May	
Comes a tall little angel, bold as can be	
Striding out with a canter, comes A	
	
Following, galloping, alone and in pairs	
But always eager...

that life is not real.

Sometimes I feel so fake,
like I could use a stake,
to hurt myself but I won't.

Sometimes I feel so happy,
but feel so flappy,
My lips are chappy.

As I turned away...

HOT WHEELS!

I went from broke to buying a Lamborghini,
Price tag not so teeny,
Sleek and black, for my Driving Academy,
Or should I buy the red Ferrari,
Command a salesman to 'comprare'?
Wouldn't he be a happy chappy?
But would...

Holy crappola
My hair's thinning out
I'm much too young
It's making me pout

My pride and joy
My whole life through
Can't imagine me bald
Bet neither can you

Given this guy is
So rugged and stylish
Admittedly sometimes
A trifle bit childish

A dapper chappy
But...
