It doesn"t come itself.

It doesn’t come itself .



The bluey black silhouette of grandpa,

Smoking his umpteenth cigarette,

Could be seen at the bottom

Of the garden.

He sat alone with his dog.



The rowdy household were

Still celebrating the christening,

But he just wanted peace.



At four score years and five

He had had enough partying.



Anyways, he needed time

For his trousers to dry.
