Oh! To be sure!

Oh! To be sure!

A Poem by andrew mitchell

If one was sure
on the sure
maybe a little green perhaps,
one would be
sure to be sure
on the Irish
for sure!
Oh! to be sure!
Brexit anyone?
Yes! I'll have two poached eggs,
bacon and toast please
just to be sure!
Sure!

The only thing I know about Brexit is that I wonder if it will ever happen, or if this turmoil goes on & on thru the years? So this is what I get when you use "sure" so often it sounds like a spoof about the utter uncertainty of it all. This is a twisted little sip of St. Patrick's with a political twist! *wink! wink!* Fondly, Margie

Oops this is to Einstein, written in the wrong column lol. I suppose I just love the Irish sayings, they remind me of the depiction of leprechauns lol. And with all the Irish jokes, and brexit in the news, the twist was to have brexit as in breakfast . My warped sense of humour Gene. As always appreciated your generous comments Gene and for stopping by my friend.

lol Yes my ideal breakfast John.
Nicely done Andrew, made me laugh. Like you said. One minute Brexit is for sure and then next it's not. They just can't make up their mind. Or get what they want more like.
