Short Postie Poems

You bring the mail unfailingly
In sun and wind and rain
With cheery smile and bright “Hello"
And "Turned out nice again"

May I suggest a strategy
To brighten all our lives
Bring a million pounds from Ernie
Instead of twenty-fives!!...

I tried being a postie 40 years ago,
attacking dogs sorta made me slow,
used to drive em off with a big bike slam,
postmaster cracked up bout bent bikes maam...
and sent me off to coventry,
so tractor assembler, next job in the hundred...sam
  Thanks David Williams:)

Listen to poem:

lightning flashes on horizon
bones ache
roof leaks
trembles under foot
friend is way overdue
some truck has my number
scratches of little feet in the walls
postie brings more bills
floor creaks
feeling queasy in the tummie
car is playing up
Series 9, Episode 36
Ho Hum!
dandruff 
Let's see what
the cat drags-in,
tomorrow....

This Valentine’s, cupid may fail
No flowers or cards in the mail
Our postie called Mike
Joined colleagues on strike 
Their actions are beyond the pale!

Our postal workers started a strike today – I’ve read they are delivering postal flowers but there will be no other post for 3 days. I’m lucky we don’t bother with the day but I know many will be upset. Poetic licence used our postie isn't called Mike!

Happy Valentines day to you all
