Its a Funny Old Life: A Collection of Humorous Poems

By J. B. Eden

This collection of amusing poems has been written for fun and to entertain in a joyful way.
The subjects are taken from real-life situations: usually a laugh can be found even when despair is around.
So look on the bright side, chase away the clouds, and soak up the sun.
Relax, dip in, and enjoy.
