The Haunted Castle

There was a young lady named Suki

Who said, “this castle is very spooky!”.

A ghost called Fred

Shook his gray head –

Which reassured that young lady named Suki!

 

Recalling Paula

There was a young lady named Paula,

And very few people can recall her.

She worked in a bar

With a man called Mar –

I think her name it was Paula?

The Joys of Swinging

When a young lady in a short frock

Decided to swing from a very old clock,

The clock’s owner, known as Dan,

Said, “I’m a red blooded man,

But I’m worried you will break that clock!”.

Passing Through

Last night the wind blew.

Today I remember you

In your heels and skirt

You wore for me.

 

There was no need for me to flirt

As I knew you would be with me

For an hour or so

And then you would go.

 

The wind is passionate and free.

You wore those clothes for me

Because you knew that I like heels and skirts.

But there was no need to flirt with you.

 

You flew to Turkey.

We can both agree

That there was some delight,

And a flight to Turkey

For you.

The Joys of Sinning

When we met a group of young women

Who spoke of the great joys of sinning,

The good vicar Paul

Talked of the fall,

And the bishop he just couldn’t stop grinning!

In Morning Time

In morning time

I write a rhyme

Before the riot

Of the coming day

Takes my muse away.

 

I am clay

And hot lust.

But ere I am dust

I have words to say.

 

Perhaps a brief rhyme of mine

Of women and wine

And fleeting time may live on

When I am gone.

 

We all go from the gloom

Of the womb

To the gloom of the tomb.

But take delight

In sunlight, ere we go.

 

The Churchyard Yew

I stood with you

By the churchyard Yew

On Palm Sunday

As children and donkey

Made their way

Past the Yew

And into the church.

 

It was wonderful to see

The children happy.

But, just on the periphery

Of joy I often see

The Yew, which has survived

So many lives

Waiting for me.

Aphrodite

I have stood

And walked

Through the wood

And thought

On nymphs who bring delight

In woods

To passersby such as I.

 

I have sought for Aphrodite

Amidst the flowering tree

And have heard the birds

Sing in hopeful spring.

But now Autumn has come

And no Aphrodite

Sings to me.

A Bull in a China Shop

There once was a bull from Hull

Who said, “I am feeling quite dull.

I’ll go with Miss Hop

To that new China shop.

The one that’s just opened in Hull!”.

Lou’s Aesthetic

When a poet known as Miss Lou

Walked around town wearing only 1 shoe,

They said, “your verse is pathetic!

But we do like your aesthetic,

As you look great wearing 1 shoe!”.
