This is a little nonsense poem using up some of the phrases 
I knew when I was younger, they always make me laugh !


Nonsense of Life

When all is said and done

the final curtain`s down

pick up your kit bag now

come on and smile, don`t frown

the grass is greener there

at least that`s what I`m told

so I should go exploring

travel before I`m too old

a pint full of goodness

to help me on my way

humble pie to feed me

thank you, is what I say

have to spend to gain things

to give and not to ask

your mission will start here

so please complete the task

to fight is to conquer

the battle can be won

so look on the bright side

because life can be fun!!
