It’s good being a wall
The stories I could tell.
My friend, in fact my bestest friend
Mortar, oh I have to admit
I’m really stuck over him
And it’s a good thing really
We are bound to each other.
A love made in heaven I say
My bits and mortar’s bits
Interwoven, stuck like glue
My mother used to say.
She was a fence my mum,
Lowly always getting wet when it rained
Where as me, no way Jose I say
I’m tall and strong
No chinks in me,
Good today as the day I was built.
Mortar and I we sometime, well
You know how it is when you fancy someone
You set up a secret rendezvous?
Well do often.
I say, ‘Morts I say,
Meet at the corner, Midnight?’
He says, ‘Wallsy, I’m there already.’
So never think I have it bad
There’s lots of walls got it worse
There’s lots of walls that are no more.
So Mortar and I, we are ok
We’ll happily stand for many a day.

Tres charmant!
Thank you Larry glad you found this so.
I always enjoy your clever wordplay and slightly wicked sense of humour, Michael. This made me laugh.
Thank you Karen. Glad it gave you a laugh. Do you ever try the wordle’s?
No. I haven’t noticed the Wordle’s before. What is it exactly?
Here’s a link to the one I do, comes up every Monday.
There are 12 words to use in a story of your choosing. I have a lot of fun with them. My ‘wicked sense of humour’ loves these challenges…
Thanks. I’ll check it out.
A comical treat Michael, loved Morts.
Thank you Jenny, just a homely but concrete sort of guy.
Ha! Now I will never look at bricks and mortar the same. Well done Michael! It was fun!
Thank you Jackie, walls have personality and feelings too you know.
Mom was a fence – eh?
Must have been quite a scandal when she gave birth to a brick! 😉
People are still talking RoSy.
