Psst … she’s 'ere
Who?
Her, wi’ the hat, the big bag and the
brolly.
If she thinks for one minute, I’ll be
skipping along the rooftops of London and singing about flying kites and stuff,
she’s got another think coming.
Ah don’t be a spoilsport; it will be great
fun on a Friday evening.
You know I’m scared of heights.
But she will take care of us. She can do magic you know.
Dunno, don’t you think we’re past the
babysitting stage?
We can pretend she’s our daft auntie.
A
daft auntie’s voice croons from the front hall. ‘Supercalifragilistic
…’
- I’m out of here!
Wait for me bruv!
Good one.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting.
Thanks Gail.
DeleteI wondered how many folks would think of Miss Poppins. :-) I certainly did but couldn't make it work as nicely as you have here. Good write! This is only the second one I've seen with our Mary. Secretly I was hoping for a barrel of them. Explorations of a theme are always fun. :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks Elena ... enjoyed playing with the picture and words and the adventures of the unforgettable Mary P too!
DeleteVery delightful poem

Thanks for stopping by Gillena ... glad you enjoyed the playful prose. I had fun scribbling it.
DeleteHa ha , daft Aunties .,.. Everyones got one ..where would we be without 'em ?
ReplyDeleteThink they are a 'must have' for every family! I love the 'sparkle' they bring to a dull day.
DeleteI have just one word for you . . :)
