POLISHED POETRY

For twenty seven years or more
We have lived together now
Both of us have taken knocks
But never had a row

I know that I can lean on her
When feeling down or rough
For though she is rather beautiful
She is also rather tough

She has always had such lovely legs
And is also rather tall
My friends, they have an eye on her
When ever they should call

Of this I am sure, she will stay with me
Until my dying day
Then someone can come along
And take my sideboard away!!
