      I would like to thank my Guardian Angel and my cat Brindle for their encouragement.

      A Cup of Tea

      Mr. Webster, are you feeling alright? I thought I heard you crying in the night

      I know it’s not been easy for you since Mrs. Webster passed away

      You really must go on holiday get away!

      I’ve just boiled the kettle; would you like a cup of tea?

      Make sure you book that holiday. It’ll do you good by the sea

      The home is going to miss Mrs. Webster, she always had a heart of gold

      When the colonel gets back from leave, he’ll have to be told

      I know he’s not been well and the news will break his heart

      You, the colonel, and Mrs. Webster never seemed to be apart

      Your tea’s getting cold, Mr. Webster, would you like another cup?

      Sometimes, a good cuppa can really perk you up

      It reminds me when my Auntie Barbara lost my Uncle Len

      It’s as vivid now as it was then

      He was always bright and cheerful then passed away so suddenly

      Drink up, Mr. Webster, and I’ll pour you another cup of tea!

      A Fine Send-Off

      I was diagnosed with the virus, had only six months to live

      So I strolled down to the local funeral parlor, what advice they could give

      Congratulations for choosing us, the undertaker said

      "But you have to come back in six months

      When you’re actually dead.

      In the meantime, look through our brochures

      See if there’s anything you like

      Our prices range from a stretched limousine
