MR OOGLEBUCK AND GREENERLY GNOME

A Friend


'Edgey Ooglebuck'  by  Trish

Whenever  Edgey Ooglebuck wanders and waddles along,

He likes to sing his own melodic, harmonious song.

One day as he wandered and waddled  his way home,
He came across his old friend Tu, the Garden Greenerly Gnome.

Greenerly Gnome
'Well hello there Edgey Ooglebuck, still singing songs it seems,
I know your songs, so well, I can sing them in my dreams.
I especially liked the one, about the wild black horse,
You sang it at the Gnome-Elf's ball, as we waited for second course.'

Edgery Ooglebusk and Greenerly Gnome
'Indeed I did, my Greenerly Gnome, but tell me, do I look  hot?'
'Well, Edgey to tell the truth, you look like a boiling pot. 
Forget the sun, rain, wind, the swish shwash  sleet,
Tuck your head under, and waddle on, to your own street.'

Edgey Ooglebuck
'I'm so glad we've met Tu, it's been such a long time,
Let's walk and talk together, it'll help  keep my mind,
Off the big hill ahead, then the long stretch after that,
You know Tu, the truth is, I've grown very fat.

And my songs have become a little, not exactly sad,
Nor could one say, they are less melodic, it's not that bad
Would you be so kind, as to help me, with, sorting  it out?
We both may benefit from my method, it's an 'earth shaking shout!'

Not so loud, it leaves one, croaking like a frog in the creek.
I mean a shout that comes out strong, and is just a bit above speak.
I've a new song in my heart, I need terribly to bring it to life
It'll make me feel happy, speed me quickly home, to my dear wife.

                                   MAKE A SOUND , ANY, YOU LIKE,  AND,
                                   NOT NECESSARILY, SOMETHING NICE.

Well that has fixed me, I now know what to do.
We've done this before, a long time ago, do you remember Tu?
I knew you'd recall those days of friendship and fun,
Now my Garden Greenerly Gnome, join me, in my new song to the sun.

A Friend
Mr Ooglebuck, and Tu, the Garden Greenerly Gnome
Made arrangements to meet next day, at Edgey Ooglebuck's home.
Shaking the earth, had given them, a grand idea,  another Gnome-Elf ball!
And with Edgey's newly risen, song to the sun, it'll be the grandest one of all.
