Premium Member A Teenage Girl Is In Love With My Mate Jericho

he told me she was stalking him
she'd taken photos of him secretly
but i said to him, like 
the Buddy Holly song says,

it's so easy to fall in love
it's so easy to fall in love 
it's so easy
it seems so easy

he 
thanked me 
for the 
wisdom

Premium Member Tiddly Diddly

(giggly apologies to Bo Diddly and Buddy Holly)

I'm tellin' you how it's gonna be
You gonna play tiddlywinks with me
Tiddle forever and one day
Winks are winks and so they'll stay
Hey, hey hey Mona, Mona, oh Mona.

I'm gonna buy you a tiddlin' game
You gonna buy me the very same
Watch as we go tiddly hop
Keep on playin', never stop
Hey, hey hey Mona, Mona, oh Mona.

Premium Member The Dog Show

Just best in show, moments of beauty, strong, smart,
a french bull dog, a lion dog Pekingese, and then
wonderful, dog winner Buddy Holly
mankind creating something special and fun
a release from the sadness and hunger, the fatigue
just an hour or two, something easy and sweet
a rare minute, I'll take it and pet my dog, a mix
rescued and now elderly, once he stayed by me 
as I struggled with chemo 
now we have a moments of ease 
in a hard hard world.
