When a young lady named Miss Spink
Said, “would you like a Christmas drink?”
It ended under the table
With Spink and Miss Mabel
And a bishop dressed in bright pink!
A very happy Christmas to all of my readers. I hope the Christmas period is full of joy for you all.
I would like to thank all of you for reading, liking and commenting on my poems. A big thank you also to everyone who has read/reviewed my books.
With very best wishes. Kevin
I forgot
The clock
When life got
In the way.
But he did stay
Ticking away my day.
When a wise and far sighted minister said,
“Good people, don’t kiss strangers under the mistletoe!”
I wondered whether one can go
To a pretty stranger’s bed
So long as you don’t kiss under mistletoe?
(Therese Coffey, a government Minister advises against kissing strangers under the mistletoe, https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-59500232?at_medium=RSS&at_campaign=KARANGA).
Autumn’s dead
Leaves rot
In winter’s earth.
Spring will bring
Earth’s rebirth.
When I saw 2 angels fall.
There was angel dust
And man’s passing lust.
And their names I do recall.
Yet, I continue to persist
In believing angels do exist.
And that not all angels fall
There once was an angel named Lin
Who wished to dance on a pin.
But a wicked old mortal
Tempted her through his portal,
Which led to great wickedness and sin!
When a young lady whose name is Fay
Said, “tell me what your poems do say!”
I said, “come you near my dear
And let me whisper in your ear.
Sweet Fay, they mean what they do say!”
As I drink
My red wine
I idly think
On Dowson’s rhyme.
The poet took delight
In women and wine.
On this December night
I have my wine.
