harry hayes Posted March 14, 2014 Report Share Posted March 14, 2014 widow goes to see her husband in the funeral parlour where he is beautifully laid out in a black suit. Oh dear, he always wanted to buried a blue suit, but the undertaker explains that i Black is the colour they use. Next day she pays another visit and he is beautifully laid out in a blue suit. She thanks the undertaker for taking the trouble. He says,"no trouble, another man came in this morning wearing a blue suit. --- it was just a matter of changing heads". Happy days Was going to turn it into a poem, but........". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evil Sid Posted March 15, 2014 Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 Dead funny Down at the funerial parlour. There was a right owdjado The corpse was dressed in a black suit The widow insisted on blue The director took her to on side And said of the deplorable lack Madame may want a blue suit But here they are buried in black But on the day of the funeral Before the internment was due The widow gazed at her husband All clad in a suit of bright blue She had praise for the funeral director She was pleased he had changed it instead He replied that another had died dressed in blue And we just switched the head. Evil Sid 20014 well why not Harry. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harry hayes Posted March 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 Thank you folks. We'll done Sid and full marks for effort. My own version of the joke has been done but is certainly no better than the above and probably took longer to write. Happy days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harry hayes Posted March 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 No chance, for several reasons. 'Publish and be damned'. And one way or other I would be. Some of the poetry forums I'm on stipulate that poems must not have been published elsewhere, so you will have to wait till Christmas In a book of humorous poems mainly for ump teenagers. Suffice to say well done to Sid for his good thinking. Happy days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
