Whilst sitting at my rather good luncheon
I got hit by a squeaky truncheon!
I said to Claire,
“Now hold on there!
I didn’t request a truncheon for luncheon!”

Philosophical Miss Page
A most philosophical young lady named Miss Page
Said, “this world is but an unreal stage.
But, let us 2 dance
And perchance find some romance”.
So we did, and crashed through the stage!
Miss Price Who Was Fond of Dice
There once was a young lady named Price
Who was known for her love of dice.
She would play for hours
With that rakish Lord Flowers.
And then she would return to her dice.
Digital
With our digital device
We hear not
The inexorable clock.
But virtue and vice
Heed time’s great knock.
Petite
Petite.
Desired.
She inspired
A poem of stilettoed feet
And the thought of ought.
And meet.

Spink Who Was Known for Her Unusual Kink
There was a young lady named Spink
Who was known for her unusual kink.
A vicar called Brown
Wore Spinks’s silk gown.
And Spink she lived in his sink!
She Has Not Much to Lose
She has not much to lose
Save for her shoes,
For her legs are almost bare
To the summer air.
And one must confess
That’s not much of a dress.
But when attending confession
She shows some discretion.
So lets not cast aspersions
Nor bear a grudge
For I have heard assertions
Her favourite is a judge!

Anticipation of Dissipation
His anticipation of dissipation.
There will be wine
With a girl divine.
Just his type.
And she may stay
For the night.
He sends her train fair.
“I’m on my way”
Her Watsap will say.
He goes to buy wine.
While she smiles
And remains online.
