I saw a woman today

Nothing odd in that

She was rather old
Frail

Eyes all rheumy
Hair dishevelled
Terry towelling leisure suit stained and crumpled

Stunning

Not all there either

A few picnics shy of a sandwich
A slab short of a stubby
Up the paddle without a creek

You know the drill

Well
Here's the odd bit

I decided to help her
We got chatting

She wanted to feel useful

So we went to her house
I cooked a feast up for us

We feasted
Drank

Tea for her
Coffee for me

All very genteel

After supping
We retired to the back porch

She sat and relaxed
Whilst I dug a hole
Shoved her in
Planted a seedling on top

She just smiled
