This week’s homework assignment for our Creative Writing group was to be inspired by the story of“if the cuckoo don’t crow”. So I decided to try my hand at nonsense! Here goes!If the cuckoo don’t crowand the crow flies on bythen spring is at handand fishes will fly.If leaves are bright pinkand day break is lostthen hold onto your hatand be in fear of a ghost.if pigs walked on stiltsand reindeer were bluethen Harry Potter would have diedand your home is the zoo.if life is a Truman showand your best mate a dogthen you’d eat breakfast at midnightand swim in the fog.If water was causticand acid was sweeta dose of figswould be right up your street.If clocks went backwardsand time was reversedthen your gran is your offspringand life’s plain perverse.But the day always breaksand breakfast’s at seventhe trees are greenin my kindergarten heaven.gran’s a little old lady who lives with a catfeeds the fish in the river where we sit for a chatHarry Potter survived and Ghost’s a dire wolfthe red nose is Rudolph’snow there no cause to scoffat these things I’ll be sure offor as long as I knowthat pigs never fly and the cuckoo don’t crow© Sheila Ash 29thNovember 2015ashramblings
