Big fight


This is the cat
That sat in the house where Grit lives.

This is the Shark*
Who threw the cat
That sat in the house where Grit lives.

This is the Dig
Who calmed the Shark
Who threw the cat
That sat in the house where Grit lives.

This is the Tiger with the dented head
Who screamed at Dig
Who calmed the Shark
Who threw the cat
That sat in the house where Grit lives.

This is Squirrel all forlorn
Who thumped the Tiger with the dented head
Who screamed at Dig
Who calmed the Shark
Who threw the cat
That sat in the house where Grit lives.

This is the Grit all tattered and torn
Who wept at the Squirrel all forlorn
Who thumped the Tiger with the dented head
Who screamed at Dig
Who calmed the Shark
Who threw the cat
That sat in the house where Grit lives.

And this is the family liaison officer who will probably call to find out what all the screaming is about.

* Strangely, no-one except the cat agreed to pose for photographs

There was a young mother caled Grit,
Who put up with all sorts of sh**
From three little girls,
All ribbons and curls
And she never was bothered one bit.

How did you get three,
To sit on your knee
When girls were all babies?
They're now all young ladies!

Is EVERYBODY reciting poetry today/night?
Well done all you poets!

i've got one of those, mine is stuck to the wall, with superglue, like EVERYTHING in our house so nothing can get thrown, except the tv remote, which is broken.

'fraid i've not got much time,
I smiled at your post,
I hope you drank the most.
