Hah, Lisamay! This made me laugh! I know it's all in good fun, but I reckon that some people really would go to great lengths to receive their inheritance early!
Congratulations on winning the contest with this good-humoured, well written post.
Best wishes as always, Debra :)

I have a grandmother who is going to outlive all of us out of nothing but spite. I liked your poem. It was quite amusing, and it met the criteria well. Best wishes.

Good Friday wishes to you Wendy.
Thanks for your review comments. This Granddad was a tough old feller against his avaricious grandson, who I hope fell in the pit himself.

Oh goodness, I wish nobody to die unless they are terminal ill. Ouch! Life is pretty precious. Even if the grandpa was rich, let him spend his cash; then you don't have to worry about his bank account.

This poem, Getting Rid of Granddad, certainly proves that the geezer has the narrator driving himself to an early grave trying to eliminate him. Funny.

I really enjoyed this poem. It flowed well and said things that many think but don's say! You are the villain but your adversary is a good match for your trickery and that is well portrayed in this poem. The imagery does the poem justice and sets you up for what you are about to read. Well done and thank you for submitting this for review. Karen

Hello mystery poet a Good day to you, I hope this finds you well. I liked your This is serious writing prompt entry, you executed it well, While killing someone for their money is no laughing matter, your wishes and attempts are quite humorous, your failure serves you right. Good job and good luck in the contest.

It is, may I say, dastardly funny and seriously wrong. Poor grandpa. Had he done anything wrong except live too long so you can't enjoy an inheritance that... may not be yours. ???
