Newly diagnosed?

From the number of Oldies on here, you will see,

You can still die of old age with COPD.

[PMRPete]

Dead right Don!

[Hidden in reply to PMRPete]

Ha ha ha! We must keep the customers happy, Pete. 😄

[Silly-mummy]

Love it Don

A happy thought from our dear bard

Who always leaves his calling card

I think that he will live forever

Cos though he's old he's very clever

His dog's quite smart as well you know

Together they put on quite a show

But the moral of this little ditty

We all die eventually.now that's a pity x

[Whitechinchilla in reply to skischool]

Very good skischool.😉

[Hidden in reply to Whitechinchilla]

He’s very good isn’t he. 😉👍

[Izb1 in reply to Hidden]

He sure is Don x

[SquirrelsHolt in reply to skischool]

Very good ski's .....I wonder if this could lead to a what they call "a rhyme off"?

[skischool in reply to SquirrelsHolt]

No way Squirrels,i always defer to the master,i know my place. x

[SquirrelsHolt in reply to skischool]

Ah so grasshopper!

[Hidden in reply to skischool]

Excellent Skis, and so right.😄x

[sassy59]

You most certainly can

It comes to us all

Dear Don has such insight

He makes us laugh,

He’s nobody’s fool

And very often right.

Thanks for the smiles Don. Xxxx😘👍

[HungryHufflepuff]

Short but sweet, a rhyme that says it all. Thanks Don.

An extra line sprang to mind for Ski's poem but it would be exceedingly rude. 🤐

[SquirrelsHolt in reply to HungryHufflepuff]

Now dont leave us all in suspense dear HH, give us a clue or else use some "*"'s to blank anything HU may not approve of,lol!

[hypercat54 in reply to HungryHufflepuff]

Go on xx

[skischool in reply to HungryHufflepuff]

Be my guest.............Please xx

[HungryHufflepuff in reply to skischool]

I don't feel that I can because apart from extreme rudeness it would also be somewhat depressing and I don't want to be a killjoy 😭

[skischool in reply to HungryHufflepuff]

come on we can't be jolly all the time,give us a bit of doom and gloom x

[skischool in reply to HungryHufflepuff]

We like some rudeness and words depressing

So come on lass and stop your messing. x

[Skatergirl1 in reply to HungryHufflepuff]

Go for it xx

[Hidden in reply to HungryHufflepuff]

It can’t just be one line and still rhyme, HH, it would have to two lines. Or did you mean replace the last line? 🤔

[HungryHufflepuff in reply to Hidden]

Wow I didn’t mean to keep you all in suspense this long. This is really going to be an anticlimax now. And I’m concerned Don doesn’t think I’m getting my poem construction right. I’m adding a verse with that rhyme pattern whose name escapes me, where the penultimate line rhymes with the first line. Or maybe I just made that up. Who knows. Anyway, drum roll please the long awaited bonus lines to Ski’s poem:

But the thing to bear which is most hard,

Is when loved ones die; that’s really $#itty.

Yes it wasn’t really worth waiting all day for was it. It just sprang to mind at the time 🙄

[Hidden in reply to HungryHufflepuff]

At last!! Hurray!!....and other joyful exclamations!............Oh,... that it then? 🙄

Only joking HH, you have revealed yourself as the Mistress of Suspense. 😘

[majji in reply to Hidden]

For a moment there I thought the Cap'n was about to type suspenders . . .

[HungryHufflepuff in reply to majji]
