Soon it will be Halloween.
I will hide behind gravestones
For a laugh. Jumping out as you pass.
But should cold old bones
Find me on Halloween, I will loudly scream!

My Strict Headmaster
I once had a very strict headmaster
Who said, “boy! You are a total disaster!”.
I said to him, “sir,
You must take great care!”,
As I drove his car much faster!

On Passing By the War Memorial
I passed by the war memorial
On an autumn afternoon
And, hearing children, thought of Sassoon
The sun soon sets.
On the war dead.
In school war poets are read.
Owen and Sassoon are learned.
And memorials are built still.
Cold
You kept your top on.
I knew you wouldn’t stay.
When you where gone
I found a piece of pizza
You had left behind.
There are many kinds of takeaway.
And I often find
Such dishes are stone cold
An Interesting Question
I know a young lady named Winning
Who spends all her days in sinning.
My girlfriend Coral
Calls her immoral
And asks how I know Miss Winning …
Useless Thought
6 degrees.
The air in the wood is good.
Leaves fall
And a Blackbird’s call
Follows me through the trees.
My mind should be still
But. Like a mill
I find my mind grinds
And the bird is only half heard.
Would that I could
Be one with bird and tree
But useless thought
Has it’s hold on me.
Yet, sitting here
I can almost hear
The Blackbird
And see the beauty of each tree
Which yesterday I failed to see.
The Mad Old Professor
When I met a mad old professor
Who jumped out of my Welsh dresser,
I said to him, “Jim!
You are far from slim!
How did you fit in that dresser!”
When a Married Young Lady in My Bathtub
When a married young lady in my bathtub
Said, “can we go to a sex club!”.
I said, “Mrs Hocking!
Your suggestion is shocking!
But I hear the food there is good …”
My Little Sex Kitten
A young lady of Great Britain
Says she’s my little sex kitten.
Her big boyfriend Dan
Has a lethal plan
So I’m packing and leaving Britain!
