COPD (recycled)

[Donald_1931]

COPD the doctor said

Is what you've gone and got.

Good grief says he, that's it then,

I've had my flipping lot.

He went back home and had a weep

Then telephoned his mate.

I've given up smoking fags he said

But I've left it far too late.

Don't worry so much, it's not that bad

Is what his good mate said.

Before that problem sees you off

Old age will see you dead.

And so it was as time went by

He did as he was told.

He took the pills and huffed and puffed.

And gradually got old.

He'd realised that it wasn't that bad,

He should not have made a fuss.

Cos on his way back home one night

He was run over by a bus

😱 Oh dear me Don! That really made me laugh as it sums up life with ill health nicely. Thank you dear friend. Xxx❤️🤗

🤣Great poem Don. Didn't expect that punch line 🤣. But so true. Sometimes think I'd prefer to go out with a bang rather than like a damp squid (what ever that is) xxxx

Oh so funny. Life has a way of not being what you expected. Keep them coming Donald, so clever.

I dont know why the thought of being run over by a bus should make me laugh so much, but thats what your poems do always make me laugh x

[Syncs]

That’s because he couldn’t run 😂

Oh so true Don , sums up life and its end when ever our time is up. Thank you. One day at a time , my sister and I went out yesterday by car of course for me . We had a lovely meal out and I bought some old fashioned sweets while my sister bought a tunic top, with me deciding which size fitted best. Enjoy your Weekend.x

It would be a rare event round here. Buses after dark are very rare to see. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 xxx
