h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Like that too Paul

Esp. the swirling brooks cascading on your windshield

Don't know if a brook can cascade but I don't care!

Jab

I'm a Taurus, therefore an earth sign, but I do love my water sports!

After the rain
But before the next rain -
It's sunny but it's snowing
The air's like ice, the wind is blowing
At gale force, blowing bits of fence away -
That's this Easter in the U.K.


Gardens

Here a lily, there a rose.
That's my plan, you see.
So far, I've planted just my toes.
For now, that does't for me.

Next topic: watching the Spring buds get fat.

plants talk to me
but I'm not insane
so I don't answer them
they don't understand why
it's because they can't lip read


tears(as in)

Tears

A tear rolls down her cheek.
Another joins its mate.
A third and fourth play hide and seek.
They swirl and meet and date.

What sorrow fills her heart?
What bubble has been popped?
Well, none! She has to start
To get the onions chopped.



Next topic: Flying kites

Lovely - worthy of Harry Graham.

Thanks.

Let's go fly a kite with Mary Poppins and Burt the chimney sweep.

Flying Kites (or Weasel Words)

Go fly your kite, the best pracise is right,
Beaconicity favours the ones with foresight,
Bottom-up testings the name of the game,,
Coterminosity keeps all the same,
Holistic governance sticks to the rules,
Place shaping pigeon-holes, fit for the fools,
Beware of the slippage, watch the predictors,
Trtansformational stakeholders will be the victors,
Impovement lever the revenue stream,
Subsidiarity fulfills the dream.
Call a symposium, synergy matters,
Pick low-hanging fruit so the fat cats get fatter.

Next; Donkeys

There were two idle crows. The time they would pass.
They wondered the difference 'twixt donkey and ass.
An owl passing through said, "Never you mind.
An ass is a donkey who's a little behind."

err! labour politics

sorry, just had to

back to the story


Next topic: What to spread on the fields to make things grow.

I say, what's that chap doing over there?
He's spreading butter on his hair
And why d'you think he's doing that?
To make sure he doesn't lose his hat
In the wind in the field spreading rumours. You know,
Rumours, they always grow and grow.


lies

I climbed a mountain on the moon
Way before breakfast, during a monsoon
I chased a train along the track
And beat the thing by turning back
I also ran after a stationary car
But was stopped by a door that was ajar
I don’t tell lies for that would be wrong
That’s why I writing this stupid song




subect: that's

I started to write about gnats
They were bigger and meaner than bats.
They had lots of fangs,
And foraged in gangs,
And their uncles sold meatloaf, but that's

another story.....

Next topic: topic drift

Cripes Paul, topic drift??
That leaves me no place to go!
Topic drift?
DamnedifIknow!!

I've never met a topic I didn't like.
But I've never seen one ride a bike.
When I ride a bike I tend to drift
And wobble quite precariously.
Perhaps if a topic I gave a lift,
We'd be drifting quite hilariously.


Next...Traumatised.

Traumatised

Willie – feeling rather happy,
Put C4 in the baby’s nappy,
As then - according to his plan -
The s**t would really hit the fan.

Nurse, quite unaware of this,
Went to change the babies dress,
Had she only realised,
She’d not be quite so traumatised.

Next

Strong Desire

Strong desire
Sets my heart on fire
But learn
I must
It's untrammeled lust
Giving me heartburn

Next: North

North is where the compass points.
North is full of whiskey joints.
North is full of Santa Claus,
Who just loves margaritas.
