Magpie 109



To say love makes the world go round
Is vague and unspecific.
It's giant cogs beneath the ground -
Now THAT is scientific!

  9. I have my doubts about the "giant cogs". I think Frances Garrood's original rhymes keep the world ticking, very happily I might add. Thank you for the smiles.

  10. Good on you Frances, all you need is love!, as a certain englishman once said as he lay in bed in full public view with his beautiful young Japanese girlfriend !
