Well I have been posting mostly sad posts. And I completely missed my 1000th post. So I thought I would post a humorous one for you all. floria A Hip And A Hop And A Tally Ho With a Hip and a Hop and a Tally Ho, This wee happy elf tipped his hat, Would he be friend or would he be foe? I knew not the answer to that. So I hid behind bushes and followed the bloke , As he whistled a jolly old tune. Then he sucked on his pipe and blew out the smoke, And his mouth wrinkled up like a prune. Now he kicked at the twigs as he hurried along, And his pointed hat slid to the side. He stopped dead in his tracks and then looked around, As I slipped behind bushes to hide. But clever was he, this jolly wee elf. And he soon disappeared from view. I searched and searched in spite of myself, Now what was I expected to do? Well, I walked on the path that lead to my home, When I got there the door was ajar. I stepped inside to find him there alone, Pouring a beer at my bar. Now look here lad, we've had our play, But I've not invited you here. "My lady dear, fear not I say, I wont be back till next year." So he tipped back his glass and announced his go, Then with a wink of his eye. With a Hip and a Hop and a Tally Ho, We both waved a fond good bye. Floria [This message has been edited by strbbux (01-17-2002 06:34 PM).] |
