Cutting the (p)rose
2 GoodGymers made their way to help an isolated older person in Hounslow.
- Sunday, 11th of November 2018
One of them was injured, the other one was sick
They went to trim Mrs S' roses with the help of a stick
She had suffered a stroke and could not do the garden
But having there her daughter, all was less of a burden
Injured and sick, known as "the leftovers team"
They were determined not to leave a single raceme
Of rose hips, red and green, in the whole garden
So shameless I am, that I will happily repeat "burden"
Back in the 80's, Mrs S' garden had won a prize
Coughing and limping, "the leftovers" made it, at least, nice.
