Apart from all the cooking and cleaning and shopping and all the rest I find timer between my caring role (my wife has MS) to write poetry and write books. Its quite convenient to work on my computer while my wife rests.

That's good to hear. In my time as a carer, despite being a musician, I have had 5 poetry books published and am working on another. Good to hear you are writing.

GOOD LUCK TURNED BAD

I WAS STROLLING DOWN THE PAVEMENT
WHEN A VISION CAME INTO VIEW
A BEAUTIFUL CRISPY FIVE POUND NOTE
SO I COVERED IT WITH MY SHOE

I CHECKED THAT NO-ONE WAS LOOKING
THEN SLIPPED INTO MY COAT
AND TO CELEBRATE MY GOOD LUCK
WENT DOWN TO THE ‘THREE LEGGED GOAT’

WHEN I GOT MYSELF A PINT IN
I SETTLED DOWN IN A PEW
BUT IT’S NO USE HAVING JUST ONE
SO I DID HAVE QUITE A FEW

THE NEXT MORNING I WAS FEELING ROUGH
WHEN I THOUGHT OF WHAT I DID
TO CELEBRATE THAT FIVE POUND NOTE
HAD COST ME FIFTEEN QUID
