Dear Readers
This is my contribution to One Month Before Heartbreak, the Broken of Britain Blogswarm that starts today and ends on Sunday. It's an original poem that I wrote recently. I hope you enjoy it.
It's One Month Before Heartbreak
It's one month before heartbreak
Our DLA they're going to take
It's only £100 a week, for goodness' sake!
Where would we be without DLA?
For cars and care, unable to pay
Some trapped inside four walls all day.
They say they'll replace it with PIP
(Personal Independence Payment)
But, we ask, what if we slip?
Or, even worse, what if we trip?
They say DLA will change its name
Not for love, marriage or any such game
But because we get the blame
But we didn't make the mess, we say
Please don't break our hearts this Valentine's Day
Please let us keep our precious DLA!
We're social, follow us!
