First Blog on Office Events and Characters

this is my third Blog site. It will be used to post poems on office events and characters I have encountered at the office or just in life. Since I just retired on 2 May, I will start with a couple of poems I wrote for my retirement.

Farewell

So long, farewell,
auf Wiedersehn, good night
I see the light
I think the time is right

So long, farewell,
Auf Wiedersehn, goodbye
We all must leave
This time I fear it’s I

So long, farewell,
auf 'voir , auf wiedersehn
I’ve had some fun
I hope you’ve had the same

So long, farewell,
Adios & toodleoo
It’s been a blast
There’s no more I can do

So long, farewell,
Auf Wiedersehn, adieu
I’ve done my best
The rest is up to you

So long, farewell
Adios’ & Cheerio
My day is done
And now it’s time to go

====================================
There once was a man from Chantilly
At 60 thought boy this is silly
I’ve done my share
So I’m out of there
This will be my last poem to you – really!

Who You Gonna Call

I’ll be leaving today
And I just had to say
I’ve had a good time with you all
But when I am home
I won’t answer the phone
So who are you gonna call?
Well, Loretta called Eddie up front
Said “Eddie we’ve ended the hunt
So just be a dear
And say I volunteer
And I’ll do anything that you want”
So no one should have any doubt
About who around here will help out
Eddie Ansell’s been named
(He’d say he’s been framed)
To be the man with all the clout
But Eddie can’t do it alone
He needs helpers as history has shown
So Loretta has said
That Cheryl and Deb
Will be alternates that you can phone
So if something needs fixin’ – call Ed
No answer? Call Debbie instead
If she can’t be found
Run Cheryl to ground
Your support around here won’t be dead
[More to follow this afternoon]
