Short Tonne Poems

Happy New Year, it’s time to fly,
Get together with others, chime,
Collect yourself and inwards cry,
Scream n’ shout at New Year’s time,

Pull down the old if need be,
Flare and dance, temper the won;
Mime, hold to ransom gaunt and Lei,
Astound the self, the gut n’ tonne.

Jig around the Christmas tree,
In the halls and pubs real bright,
Lights will own you, squint or glee,
‘Til surroundings become amie tight.

Happy New Year. Cheers to you all....

Load her up he said
And it started without dread

We need to get it done
Until the job is finally won

But he got in the way
And lost his life that day

Flatten by 4 tonne stressed concrete
Meant his life was complete

So if you are transporting slabs
Over roads that are bad

Ensure that you chain them down
And when unloading without a frown

Be careful in the end should be your final say
Industrial accidents won't happen and it will be OK.

Being with boys is fun
Their  company is hard to shun
Even when stresses are a tonne
They are so cool as if there are none

Being with girls is a bit boring
They seldom set your spirits soaring
Busy they are in their adorning
Be it night or morning

Few girls are humorous
Boys can be ludicrous
Their wit is tremendous
And their company stupendous.

A boys company is sought
When life is full of fraught
Of liveliness there is is no draught
These things are inborn never taught....
