poem

[Annash]

Does anyone remember a bank/savings ad with a youth walking along with cash pouring out of the bottom of his trousers: there was a poem about parenys funding children and it sounded liek roger mcgough? Does anyone know the poem

I have found this answer on another site. Hopefully that may help.


'2002 the Prudential used this poem by Nick Toczek

Our kids, who've grown and flown the nest,
Now only phone us to request
More cash on loan, their tone depressed.

We're shown their debts. We've known. We've guessed.
They own mere pence. They've blown the rest.
"We're stony-broke!" they drone, distressed.

They moan. We grown, but re-invest
In those who've grown and flown the nest
Our blood-and-bone, our own, our best. '
