When A Waitress Who Is Really Nice

When a waitress who is really nice
Said, sir, would you like some spice?,
I made reply,
No, not I,
But chili and rice would be nice.

The World Book Encyclopedia in Braille

One of my memories from my time at the Royal School for the Blind (Wavertree in Liverpool), is of reading articles from the braille edition of The World Book Encyclopedia. It was in the school boardroomm and was wholly separate from the books which stood, shelf after shelf in the library.

I well remember being fascinated by articles on a variety of subjects, including one on ghosts.

When A Young Lady Named Lou

And was chastised by her teacher!

A Young Man Who Liked Women and Booze

A young man who liked women and booze
Was also extremely fond of his girlfriend’s shoes.
His latest conquest, who was called Pearl,
Said, “you set my head in a whirl,
But please don’t borrow my shoes!”.

I Saw A Great Bough

But know not the noble dirt

When a girl’s perfume
Fills the room
It is easy to pretend
My friend
That we do not yield
To the good mud
Of the fields,
In the end.

There Once Was A Labrador Called Trigger

There once was a labrador called Trigger
Whose stomach it grew ever bigger.
When they said, “eat less grub!”,
He went down to the local pub,
Where he showed off his beautiful figure!

Whilst Taking Tea with the Vicar

Whilst taking tea with the vicar
Who has a dodgy old ticker,
A young lady named Hocking
Showed off her new stockings,
Which almost killed the vicar!
