(I Never) It Would Take Too Long

I never saw Bowie live,
nor have I climbed Mount Everest.
I've never swam in shark infested seas,
with a cage or without!
...and I never had tea with the Queen.

I've never bathed in the river Ganges.
I never wandered the desert floor with the Nomads.
I was never part of a camel train and slept with the Bedouin in their tents underneath an endless canopy of stars.
...I think I've never seen a ghost.

I've never robbed a bank.
I've never held up a stagecoach on a horse with a pistol in my hand and a mask across my face,
nor planned a heist.
...I've never smelt the inside of a prison.

I never went to the moon.
I've never flown on Concorde first class and arrived before I set off!
Never flew on Concorde in any class!
...but it would take too long to list the things I have done!

The road ahead may
be blocked and the problem may
not be clear. Look up!

Woman with nothing
on said she felt cold. For the 
answer, look within.

Don't complain about
your situation. Others
would love your problems

Christmas in November

The seasonal Costa offering.
Promotions on shelves and adverts on telly.
Songs on play lists.
Decorations on cars
Carols,
red and green everything,
and the premature smothering of houses in twinkly lights.

More sparkle than there should be.
More references to,
more signs of.

...Christmas in November
