Circular

A circular seat
Encompassing a tree.
Age will defeat
Thee and me.

A Story of Glory

When a young man named Rory
Asked for a story of glory
An old lady called Lou
Told him a tale untrue.
It was a very political story!

The Golden Sun

The weather is hot.
I could call you
And specify what I …

The sun is hot
Our bodies like glue
In summer’s golden weather.

Shall we lie together
In the golden sun?
Honey, will you come?

Flair Who Was Concerned With My Immortal Soul

I met a young lady named Flair
Who said “you should take great care
As too many women
Are fond of sinning.
Now sir, will you mount the stair?”.

Said the Sweet Nymph Unto the Satyr

Said the sweet nymph unto the satyr
“Sir, surely you can’t grow any fatter!”.
Said the satyr
Unto the nymph
“Come you down from your high plinth
And let us make great sport together
In yonder heather!”.

But the nymph did gently smile
And said “I have been had
By many a rich handsome lad.
But sir, ‘tis not my style
To grace with my pretty face
And my fine silks and lace,
An ugly old satyr’s poor platter!”.

There Once Was a Pigeon Named Lou

There once was a pigeon named Lou
Who spent all her days saying coo.
But a grumpy old cat
Was not fond of that –
So one day Lou ceased to coo!

Last Night

A professional young lady named Miss White
Came round to my place last night.
The bishop was there
With his friend Claire.
And the stars they wink at night.

Fay Who Loved to Play

There once was a young lady named Fay
Who spent all of her day in play.
A most kindly old gnome
Would come round with Joan,
As they loved to play with Miss Fay.

Artificial Flowers

The hypnotic tick tock
Of a concealed clock.
Artificial flowers in a vase.
The truth is writ large.
I do not repent
Of their fleeting scent.
But time ends all rhyme.
