Nosey Neighbours Poem by suzan gumush

While standing high up on a step ladder
Cutting my hedge with a pair of shears
A nosey neighbour stepped into my garden
I almost fell
When he startled me
Unexpectedly he appeared
From behind my well craft arch
Gossiping words I didn't want to hear
I continued with my duel
While he nattered away
Chatter chatter chatter
Half way down
Natter natter natter
Almost finished
Moan moan moan
I'm done
I turned and thanked him
For helping me get my hedge done
Still he continued to mutter
