Dig Up The Garden

Black Singles Online

An old man lived alone in St. Mary, Jamaica. He wanted to plough his field to plant potatoes, but it was very hard work, and he was unable to do it alone. His only son, who would have helped him, was in prison.

The old man wrote a letter to his son and mentioned his predicament. Shortly, he received this reply, “Papa, beg yu nuh dig up the garden, that’s where I buried the GUNS!”

At 4 a.m. the next morning police and soldiers showed up and dug up the entire garden, without finding any guns.
Confused, the old man wrote another note to his son telling him what happened, and asking him what to do next. His son’s reply was: “Now plant yu potatoes, Papa. Is the best I could do at this time.”
