An eye catching experience

Jim lived in a flat on the first floor,

He had to close the window it was going to pour.

He felt the rain as he held out his hand,

As he did this a glass eye fell into his hand.

 

"Hello has anyone up there lost a glass eye?"

"Oh it's mine !"A lady with relief did sigh.

"Please can you bring it up and give it to me,

I'll make you a sandwich and a cup of tea."

 

Jim went up and enjoyed the unexpected bite,

Then she said,"Would you like to stay the night?"

"Do you say that to all the men who pass you by?"

"No,"said the lady,"Only to the ones who catch my eye."

Love your stories Hugh, put me in a good mood for the rest of the day! Like Mae West - Come up and see me sometime with my glass eye.

A flirty line that still rings true:
"I'll be sure to keep an eye out for you"! ?

I don’t suppose she was a teacher who had lost one of her pupils , was she, Hugh?
