S2Q3. Write a poem about something you love

  • As soon as Friday wakes up

    I start to feel a thrill

    Cos soon it will be drinky time

    And that makes me feel brill

    It’s not to get too blotto

    Or get me in a mess

    It’s just to be in my happy place

    And forget about my stress

    We sit in the back garden

    and talk about our day

    And try to make light of our situation although that’s hard I must say!!!

    But it always makes me feel better, a drink, a fag, a chat

    A game or two of Spotify

    And I’m better, as easy as that!!

    The best is when there’s sport on

    We watch it on the tele

    The rugby, tennis, football

    It’s my favourite more than any

    I absolutely love it

    especially in the sun

    We sit out here for hours

    And really do have fun

    I suppose it may sound shallow

    It may sound a little rough

    But drinking with my family

    Is the best time

    So it’s just tough!!!

  • Driving around to places so far

    Going to fields out in the car

    Sunny or rainy the feelings the same

    A way to change the plan of a day

    And a place you wouldn’t have seen before

    Can be seen, discovered and there to explore

    Taking photos and scavenging around

    Or listening to music and talking aloud

    And when it all comes to a close

    The places you see will never get old

  • This is a poem for my mum, who used to think I was a bum.

    This is a poem for my dad, hopefully I can make him glad.

    This is a poem for my sister, who deserves to find a good Mr.

    This is a poem for my partner, she deals with me, she must be a martyr.

    This is a poem for my friend, the laughter will never end.

  • She gets me here

    She gets me there

    She’s big and ugly

    She has no hair

    She’s not called sally

    She’s not called Sam

    I fucking love my transit van !!!

  • The bond of four furry feet.

    In the boot of the car dog is crying.

    Off the lead into mud she is flying.

    At the clean cloths were wearing.

    Mud stains we are staring.

    In the front of the car we are crying.

    To the beach furry feet run at speed.

    Beach freezing it's a beer what we need.

    Holding hands hatching plans.

    To get off these wet sands.

    It's Moretti we prefer over Carling.

    Eight feet four furry in the car.

    On a road trip miles away but not far.

    Our love filled to the brim.

    And the dog learnt to swim.

    Making plans for next trip in the bar.

  • St Ives

    Wake up early, load up the car, pack it all in, full to the brim, check the list, nothing missed.

    Long journey down never a frown, headline news, read to amuse, hit all the weathers, grey and blues skies holidays in st ives.

    Almost there everyone stares.

    Walk through door, jaw hits the floor, pull a pew, what a view.

    Stunning blue seas, dolphins and seals, seagulls steal.

    Ice creams and sprinkles oh so simple,

    Fish, chips, pasties and pies, holidays in St Ives

    Amusement arcade don’t be afraid , hill Billy shoot out, water spraying all about, leave soaking wet, I’ll never forget.

    Long coastal walks whole family talks,

    Badger Arms hits lager & crisps, everyone’s pissed.

    Time to go home everyone moans , we wave goodbye, try not to cry , walk to the car, it’s not far, hold on a minute, parking ticket now I’ve shit it !!!

  • I want to fish. I need to fish. It’s in my DNA.

    I'd love to pack my job in and go every fuckin day.

    but I can't do that I've got bills to pay and a raving fuckin wife.

    maybe I should bump her off and get a different life.

    But then I'd end bang in jail and counting every hour.

    and probably get raped by Mr big down in the shower.

    but I'm going off track I'm being a twat I've got to keep it real.

    so let's get back to what I love and how I really feel.

    so basically I'm happy when I'm fishing anywhere

    and if you think I'm fuckin mad well fuck off over there!

  • Loves a Good Scratch

    By Pip Squeak

    Loves a good scratch I do

    If there's an itch I have to scratch it and my fingers are the tool.

    I awake most mornings to a stretch and a scratch, an itch won't evade me, an itch I will catch.

    An itch pops up out of nowhere at first to my dismay, but then I send in the digits to scratch them away.

    The feeling I get from a good old scratch is this; it's similar to the relief I get when exuding a long-awaited piss.

    I'm starting to itch while writing this drivel, I'm rubbing my back on the door frame right now because the twat is right in the middle.

    Back to the poem, I'll give you some examples; the back of your head the bottom of your ankles!

    Inside your ears the top of your nose, under your armpits and in between your toes!

    Itchy shin bone, itchy calf's, itchy elbows, itchy arse!

    Under your chin, the middle of your back or that little patch of skin between your arsehole and your ballsack!

  • What I love to remember

    Are days in September

    and we were plopped on the beaches taken days for us to reach the reason for that I would like to explain

    it’s my fault I fear, as I won’t go by plane

    so each day is a joy as we swim and we laze and the hours pass by in a beautiful haze

    but my favourite part of it all you see with a drink close to hand, we remember our day

    and watch that beautiful sun go down over the bay.
