As after you die
You have no need to eat toast!

Who gave all dogs the vote.
A government minister called Joan

But the dogs didn’t vote for Moat!

The Secret of the Rose

“We know what was on his mind
When he composed a rhyme about time
And a flower who’s bloom to soon
Passed away”, they will say.

And I will make reply,
“Only the poet knows
The secret of the rose”.
But poets may lie.

A Dog Who Had No Tail

A dog who had no tail
Made the poor vicar turn pale.
As the day turned dark
He would howl and bark
Until the devil returned his tail!
