Lost: Voice

Today, I’m not talking
But it’s not by choice
Some pesky bug
Has taken my voice!

Tonight, I’ll be skipping
Our regular chat…
Maybe my hubby
Is pleased about that!! 🤔

Compression Tights $$

Compression tights are pricey
But I got mine for free 😀
All I had to do was…
Have a little surgery!

Dear reader, what am I to do?
Be practical? Or follow my passion?
I’ve done some self-discovery
(After all, it’s quite the fashion).

Oh, giving up the day job
Would be a dream come true
To write what I like (and get paid)
Well, that’s what I’d love to do!

Till a big break comes along
Sadly, a hobby this must stay
(I do need the reassurance
Of receiving regular pay!).

But who out there has done it?
Taken a leap, despite the doubt?
Feel free to share your wisdom
Tell me, how’s it working out?

I’ve done little writing of late
But you see, there is a reason
I’ve been re-watching Game of Thrones
Every episode, of every season.

I’m reliving all the scheming
The battles and beheadings
Secret deals, blood magic
And, of course, the weddings.

My re-watch has almost ended
Season Eight will soon be here
It’s sure to bring more drama
I may even shed a tear…

After the final credits have rolled
I’ll surely get back to writing
Although… I have yet to finish
Season Five of Vikings! 🤔

Ten fat, juicy sausages
Sizzling on the barbecue
(I can’t wait to eat them
With sauce, and onions too!)

If one of those fat sausages
Should fall onto the ground
It’ll soon be gobbled up
By our ever-hungry hound!

‘Twas my birthday recently
The big 5-0 is drawing near
I’m an “oldie” where I work
That much is very clear!

My colleagues are barely 20
(You can do the sums…)
Just the other day, they said
“You could be our Mum!”

I hope I can be useful, and
Make them feel inspired
I just wish I had their energy
Instead of feeling tired!

I know this looks kinda bad
But I swear, it wasn’t me
This is how I found it…
I’m innocent, you see.

Why are you so angry?
I’m well-behaved and sweet
So how about a little ‘fetch’
And then a tasty treat?
