Miss Flow
I know a young lady named Miss Flow
Who works in a place known as Soho.

There Was A Young Lady of Sri Lanka
There was a young lady of Sri Lanka
Who, being unable to master the Japanese tanka,
Composed a fine sonnet
Whilst Wearing a bonnet
As she danced on a large oil tanker!

There Was a Young Man Named Ray
There was a young man named Ray
Who composed a fine poem each May.

There Was a Young Man Named Dunn

But going off course
He encountered a horse
Who said, “that just can’t be done!”

A Shiver, a Sigh, a Smile: Audrey Driscoll’s Review of Leaving and Other Poems by K Morris
