I took this picture last Sunday and, ok, you may need a little imagination but looks like a flying Angel to me......

God gives us boils upon our bums to keep us standing straight,
He gives us upset in our tums to make sure we’re sometimes late.
God gives us pain deep in our ears to let us know he’s there,
He gives us eyes that fill with tears for onions that we share.

God gives us teeth so we can bite, and rip and tear and chew,
When teeth fall out and gums get light he gives us Irish stew.
God gives us knees that ache and crack and eyes so we can see,
He gives us legs that go forward and back to get us from A to B

God gives us a nose so we can smell and wipe our winters drips
He gives us many tales to tell and fish and peas with chips.
God gives us summer sun and rain and autumn wind and showers,
He gives us snowy winter fun in short frosty daytime hours.

God gives us heat so we can hold cold hands against the fire,
He gives us clothes for us to fold and beds for when we tire,
God gives us toilets for us to use and clean around the rim,
He gives us everything we need but what do we give to Him?

We no doubt make him smile when we have to stand up straight,
And when we’re stuck upon the loo he knows he’ll make us late.
So how can we repay God for all the things he gives to us?
Dear God you made me late again, please send another bus.

And while I sit and contemplate and watch your world go by,
I’ll say thanks for all the things on earth and all within the sky,
There’s one more thing to thank God for if I may be so humble,
When I get off this bus and home God’s made some rhubarb crumble!

Little Lucy went out into the garden and saw her cat Tiddles
lying on the ground with its eyes shut and its legs in the air.

She fetched her Dad to look at Tiddles, and on seeing the cat he
said, as gently as he could, "I'm afraid Tiddles is dead, Lucy."

"So why are his legs sticking up in the air like that, Daddy?"
asked Lucy as she fought back the tears.

At a loss for something to say the father replied, "Tiddles' legs
are pointing straight up in the air so that it will be easier for
Jesus to float down from heaven above and grab a leg and lift
Tiddles up to Heaven."

Little Lucy seemed to take her Tiddles death quite well. However,
two days later when her father came home from work Lucy had tears
in her eyes and said: "Mommy almost died this morning."

Fearing something terrible had happened the father shook the girl
and shouted, "How do you mean Lucy? Tell Daddy!"

"Well", mumbled Lucy, "soon after you left for work this morning
I saw mommy lying on the floor with her legs in the air and she
was shouting, "Oh Jesus!!! I'm coming, I'm coming!!!" and if it
hadn't been for the milkman holding her down she would definitely
have gone, Daddy."

Time for some personal creativity......

One Last Act

As I walked up to St Peter’s Gate,
A voice called out “Sorry you’re too late”
“The Good folks has been counted in”
“Join that queue, They’re repenting sin”.

So head hung low I joined the line,
If only I had come on time,
This line could lead me straight to Hell,
I was in the wrong queue, I knew damn well.

So I climbed back up to St Peter’s Gate,
Said “Excuse me but I’m sorry mate,
I know I sinned some years ago,
When told to come I had to go”.

“That’s a small sin” he said “I’ll check with Pete”.
I smiled and thought “Good no retreat”.
Within a flash the angel returned
His clothes all charred his wing tips burned.

“My gosh” I said “What happened to you”?
There was thunder and the air turned blue
I’d never heard an angel swear,
Particularly one with golden hair.

“I told Pete your story, he said was it a blow,
When you were told to come but you had to go?
If you’d come then, you’d not be here now
And I wouldn’t have got in such a row”.

“So Pete’s instruction is simple and clear,
You must go back to earth for another year,
Next time make sure you come when called,
In the meantime you’ll lose your teeth and go bald”.

That was just a year ago and this is now,
It was difficult but I did it somehow,
Not a tooth in my head and no comb required,
We both came together and then I expired.

Now with the Good folks being counted in,
On time, this time, and free from sin,
But nightmares and memories I still have some,
Of having to go when I should have come.
