My Stay in a Seedy Old Hotel

Whilst staying in a seedy old hotel
I was accosted by pretty Miss Bell.
It is no crime
To indulge in rhyme
About Miss Bell in a seedy hotel …

Anyone for Tea?

I know a young man named Lot
Who went and bought a chocolate teapot.
I all you good people warn
To avoid the sweet rose’s thorn!
And hot tea in Lot’s chocolate teapot!

Heather Who Spoke of Love and Pleasure

There was a young lady named Heather
Who spoke of love and of pleasure.
That great writer Ken
Took up his pen
And wrote of his pleasure with Heather …!

Something Really Exciting!

When a young lady named Miss Whiting
Said, “lets all do something really exciting!”,
She and Miss Bess
Took off their dress,
And the bishop he dimmed the lighting!

A Yellow Dog

A yellow dog
In yellow sun.
You take delight
In spring sunlight.
Your time
Has come.

My brindle friend
Enjoyed the sun.
All things end.
The wind’s gust
Blows all dust
Under the sun.

(In the above poem, the reference to the yellow dog is to my current guide dog Apollo, whilst “my brindle friend” refers to my former guide dog Trigger, who died in September 2020).

My Friend (Lets Call Her Miss Witty)

My friend (lets call her Miss Witty)
Is slim and more than just pretty.
When she entertains discerning men
With her gorgeous friend Gwen
My wife goes ballistic in the city!

Forgetful Miss Mar

A most forgetful young lady named Mar
Is well known for losing her bra.
My friends Bill and Joe
Like to confuse Miss Flow,
By returning to her the wrong bra …!
