Manly knocking?...

Manly knocking?...

A Poem by Ewen A Morrison
"

Ewen is an elder gentleman and one who delights in being a grandparent, among life's delights... one of which is his family position - he is a grandfather!

"
Answered door rapidly, two young girls,
looking for friend, s the story unfurls;
"Ewen John's on holiday presently", tell,
 "Where to?" - he's in Turkey, for a spell!"

I then plead: "don't scare me", behested, 
(they smilingly agreed, t' the requested),
"E.J. will tell both, of his fun holidaying,
Which will be more enjoyable!" (saying).

Next, hear a similar sound a-calling,
Maybe better prepared, unquestioning, 
In indifferent mind, responding now;
"Tha sin mar sin": below explains how.

("that's the way it goes, that's life")
