THE A TO Z CHALLENGE 2015: Q IS FOR QUE SERA SERA

 WELCOME TO THE 17TH LETTER
OF THE A TO Z CHALLENGE:
I WILL CHOOSE A SONG TITLE
THEN WRITE MY OWN POEM:
Q
is for
QUE SERA SERA
RECORDED BY DORIS DAY:
FROM THE FILM
THE MAN WHO KNEW TOO MUCH:
Whatever will be will be,
As the old adage do say.
Still certainly meant what it said
For me on this very long Sunday.
 
First my Internet was down,
For most of the day.
After countless telephone calls,
It decided to return (hopefully) to stay.
 
Just as I was relaxing,
I realised it was time for me to eat.
I retrieved a meal from the ice box
And in the microwave prceeded to heat.
 
The microwave it seems
Has broken down.
On my face dear friends
Was a furious frown.
 
I ended up with sandwiches,
That I ate with "Glee".
Thinking of the imortal words,
What Will Be Will Be.
 
It is now 22-40pm .
I will post this as I go to bed.
With the tune Que Sera Sera,
Happily running through my head.

  3. Bummer! Sorry to hear your microwave "died." At least you had a sandwich. I have listened to Doris Day sing that song a number of times over the years. Hope you got some good rest!

  9. Little hiccups teach one to be more tolerant. Life is such that one learns something out of them. Nicely Yvonne!

  12. Things always break when you need them the most. Like AC units only die on the most humid day of the year.

  13. How well I remember that. Doris Day was my favorite. I went to almost all of her movies. Thanks for the memories.
    Some days are so frustrating. Hope all is well now.
    Have a great week.

    1. Would you believe I've had "Another Day". I always phone John in Spain on a pay as you go phone as O2 won't allow to phone abroad on my Iphone. I broke the cheap phone, ordered another it should have been here last week. Now I learned they delivered it to the wrong address. Thanks for your kind comment Lee, I think I will get MacArthur Park from ITunes.

  16. No way! The last blog I visited talked about this song. My mom was a big Doris Day fan, so naturally I heard this song a lot. :)
