Out with the old, in with the new; time to move on to a future of rose not blue :)

Er...no, picture felt tip pen on a few doors! and a kitchen which could be a "blank slate"....actually I am going to be moving to an upper floor flat Stef, with my two very noisy children!!!!...oh dear, not sure which strateges will work there!

Little freckles are cute
but very loud of foot
may need to strap
cotton wool to their tootsies
so the lady downstairs
doesn't have a breakdown!

such a poor verse but you get the picture...!!!!

There'll be nothing here but water filled with waste,
Oceans barren acid killed and overfished and overfaced,
It may be to late to avoid destruction and change this all,
I hope i'm not the only one that sees our decline and fall.

So we the naked ape you see may have to start again,
Brought about by our greed we have caused too much pain,
If this happens then so be it the stories will survive,
So it will never happen again and the planet will be alive.

Nice! I liked this.
Ply her with the odd glass of wine, portion of casserole and cake, with a bit of luck she'll be deaf as a post and love the mini freckles :D
