I’m feeling rather fragile now,
a bit lacklustre, flat somehow.
I’d like to lift my mood a bit,
To have a laugh, enjoy a skit,
But life’s become a trial today,
A day of reckoning coming my way.
So I’ll roll up tight, into a ball
and see what Monday has in stall.*
I didn’t realise but the phrase “To have something in stall” i.e. something in store, something coming up, is a UK English expression! Well, you learn something new every day.

βIn stallβ is interesting – we say in store. But in old marketplaces, the stores were more like stalls.

I think that’s exactly where it comes from as sort of old fashioned version of in store. π
