There Was A Young Lady Called Pearl
There was a young lady called Pearl
Who’s hair refused to curl.
So, in frustration
She emailed the nation,
And set the press in a whirl!
The Lover Who Was Not …
“The lover who
Was not
True?”
“No
It can not
Be so”.
“The girl who was not
Hot?”
“Again, I say no,
For it was not quite so”.
“What was she then
When
She paid a call on him?”
“One who engages in what some name sin
That is what she was to him.
She was true
As she went through
With it,
Though her lip she bit
And left
Feeling bereft
Though richer for it.
She was hot
To him, though ice cold inside.
You decide
Whether she
Be true, or otherwise.
Though you may prefer to avert your eyes …”.

It Is By No Means Unknown
It is by no means unknown
For a middle-aged man to flirt
With a much younger Joan
Who, in her short skirt
And stilettos high
Laughs at the clumsy pass
Of the receeding guy.
Her face in the glass
Is full
Of youthful vigour.
The dull
Tick tock
Of the bedside clock
Does not figure
In her thought, for she is but twenty
And there is plenty
Of time.
I Know A Young Lady Called Lou
I know a young lady called Lou
Who claims to be 22.
But, all the barmen being mean
Say, “you are just 16”,
So refuse to serve that young lady Lou!

A Young Man Who’s Name Is Wong
A young man who’s name is Wong
Is honest as the day is long.
But, as the days grow short
I think that I ought
To avoid that young man called Wong!
When Out On The Town Last Night
When out on the town last night
I met a young lady called White.
But come the dawn
I felt forlorn
As I missed my wallet and White …
I Know A Young Lady Called Heart
I know a young lady called Heart
Who is obsessed with collecting fine art.
When she showed me her etching
I found it most fetching
And we spent the night talking art …
It Is My Birthday Tomorrow
It is my birthday tomorrow
But I shall celebrate tonight
When there will be delight
With family and friends. And sorrow
On the morrow
For I shall turn 50 on Sunday
And an unaccountable headache, will with me stay
Throughout my birthday.
Though the hair of the dog will remain
To ease my pain …
I Know A Young Lady Called Heart
I know a young lady called Heart
Who is a lover of fine art.
When I showed her my etching
She took to sketching,
But I didn’t think much of her art.
