A Young Lady Named Lou

A young lady named Lou
Is fond of the high-heel shoe.
She has quite a collection,
And I’ve done an inspection,
And I’ve also seen Lou’s shoe!

When A Robber Rude and Bold

When a robber rude and bold
Said, “hand over all your gold!”,
I said, “I’m not at all witty,
And don’t work in the city,
So alas you’ll have no shining gold!”.

When A Young Lady Named White

When a young lady named White
Said, “wickedness takes place at night”.
I said, “that is so shocking.
You’d best take off your stockings
And stay with me for tonight!”.

Oh What Would I Give To See Where Nymphs Live

Oh what would I give
To see where nymphs live!
Strolling through forest glade
I have met
Many a staid maid.
I regret
That, on my way
Through forest green
I have never seen
Flighty Aphrodite.
But, perchance
I may
Join nymphs in their dance
One day,
And hear Pan’s pipes play.

When A Young Lady Said, With A Smile

When a young lady said, with a smile,
“I shall be gone for a little while”,
I said to her, “Rose,
Please put on some clothes,
As you will be traveling down the Nile!”.

When Fantasy Becomes Reality

When fantasy
Becomes reality
Often we see
Nought, but banality.

A Young Lady Whose Name is Leigh

A young lady whose name is Leigh
Said, as casual as casual can be,
With her feet on the antique table,
That she was both willing and able,
And the vicar he poured more tea.

Ahead

On this cold
Sunny day
In March,
I make my way
Through the churchyard,
And see,
My vague
Shadow go
Ahead, of me

There Once Was A Young Lady Named White

There once was a young lady named White
Who stayed up for many a long night,
Writing a novel about a girl called Hocking
Who lost more than her shoe and stocking.
And the Lord Bishop was married to White.

There Once Was An Ambassador to Britain

There once was an ambassador to Britain
Who said, “many a poem I’ve written
About drinking lukewarm tea
And my great diplomacy,
And a kitten whose name is Mitten!”.
