SurvIvor

Here lies the bones
of a lad they called Ivor,
through a lifetime of pains
he remained a survivor.
Until the sad day
when he said it was fun
to play Russian Roulette
with a part loaded gun.

He thought he controlled
all the chances in life
and by using just blanks
was just teasing his wife.
He said that with luck
she'd have nothing to fear
but a blank blows your brains
when it's shot in your ear!

Now Ivor's remains
are laid six feet below,
except for his brains
which the wind will now sow
Although poor old Ivor
just loved having fun
a brainless eternity
he’s now himself won.

But just to ensure
that he died not in vain,
please remember survivor
was built on his name.
So if Ivor survivor
has died just for fun,
for God's sake be careful
where you point a gun!

The moment created this second, is a moment that's going to last.
It lives the full spectrum of time, the future, the present and past.

May Ivor the Survivor, rest in pieces. I mean, rest 'in peace'.

I enjoy your wry sense of humour ~ and your poetry.

No survivor like Ivor
I just duck and dive
Forget all life’s pains
That’s how I survive
No time for shirkers
It benefits me
Backwards or downwards
My life is still free

Risks taken and chance’s
For a half century plus
I have no fear
Of missing the bus
If you cook it up
I can put it right
With a smile on my face
That gives you a fright

OK I admit it
Some day I may fall
Not I might add
Off an imaginary wall
A great deal of trouble
Is all in the mind
So I will keep smiling
Try to be kind
