A Flirty Young Lady Named Lou

A flirty young lady named Lou
Lost her party shoe.
But a vicar called Ned
Found it under his bed,
Which pleased that young lady Lou!

A Girl in Heels and Scars

A girl in heels
And scars
Sees not the stars
Above, but feels
The rhythmic motion
Of a rising ocean
Coming to the boil.

Soon the bob, throb
Of the ship will cease.
Bringing peace
From her toil.

But there must be
Another captain of the sea
To receive the charms
Of heels and scars
Until his ship lies becalmed
In arms
Struggling to see
The stars

The Ring of Lustre Pure

The ring
Of lustre pure
Is a thing
Of desire
To many men
But, when
Man does explore
The prize
As yet Untried,
To the very core
Oh how soon the fire
Does Expire
For that particular thing.

An Interview With A Difference

[image error]

I was intrigued and delighted when author and poet Victoria (Tori) Zigler invited my guide dog Trigger, to be interviewed by her own four-legged canine friend.

During the course of his interview, Trigger was kind enough to talk about my poetry (amongst many other things)!

There Was A Young Lady of Dunblane

There was a young lady of Dunblane
Who, on marrying a strapping Dane,
Moved to Denmark
With their pet shark,
And was never seen again!

Friday Humour

I know a young lady named Spink
Who has a very unusual kink.
When we passed on the stair
I most solemly swear
That she gave me a significant wink!

—

There was a young man of Liverpool
Who, being a bit of a fool.
jumped into the Mersey river
And started to quiver
As he mistook it for a pool!

Use the “E” Word

Use the “E”
Not the “P”
Word. For “E”
Is for company
And the passing smile
Of a girl with style.
While “P”
Does not go
On business trips
Although, you know
She also
Employs her hips.

Early Morning Walk

My dog snuffles
and scuffles
amongst the leaves.
He is just there
With no care
For what I think
As I drink
In the fresh morning air.

A Short Analysis of William Wordsworth’s ‘The Solitary Reaper’

“The Solitary Reaper” is my favourite Wordsworth poem.

Interesting Literature

‘The Solitary Reaper’ is one of Wordsworth’s best-known poems. Although it’s a ballad, it didn’t appear in Wordsworth’s most famous collection, Lyrical Ballads, because he wrote it after the publication of that volume (co-authored with Samuel Taylor Coleridge) in 1798. ‘The Solitary Reaper’ appeared in Wordsworth’s 1807 collection Poems in Two Volumes. The poem has received a fair bit of critical analysis; here, we...
