Surprise Sandwiches

 

One of brown sauce, one of red

One of Bovril, jam, or spread

One of lard with salt and pepper

Cheese and pickle tastes much better

Condensed milk is such a treat

Sugar soldiers can’t be beat

 

Take your pick and do not peek

Surprise sarnies Granddad’s treat!

There in the autumn log pile,

were the spiders,

the wispy ones,

the long legged ones,

the fast ones,

the jumping ones,

the hairy ones,

the butch ones,

the tiny ones.

The militant ones declared a strike –

All out!

They marched into the house,

in an autumn spider rally.

And now it’s time,

to go to bed,

‘cause I’m a tired,

teddy head.

 

A giant yawn,

I rub my eyes,

it’s time to go,

to beddy byes.

 

Up the wooden

hill I go,

to throw some Zzz’s,

and dream of you!
