Has a habit of calling me Clair.

But at half-past 7

I change from Kevin

And dress in the clothes of Flair!

When an Excitable Young Lady Named Lou

When an excitable young lady named Lou

Said, “I never thought I’d be here with you!”.

But now you are here”,

She said, “yes! That is undoubtedly true!”.

 

Rose and her Toes

I know a young lady named Rose

A 4 Star Review of My Collection of Humorous Poems, My Friend’s Robot Girlfriend and Other Humorous Verses

I was delighted to receive the below review of my collection of humorous poems, “My Friend’s Robot Girlfriend and Other Humorous Verses”:

 

“This collection of poems comprises humorous limericks. The poet has a sharp eye for the failings of mankind and has woven his observations into these clever poems.

An excellent example of one such exposing poem is Henrietta’s Erotic Letter:

When a naughty young lady named Henrietta
Sent the bishop an extremely erotic letter,
His wife called her loose
And his daughter turned puce.
And the bishop he treasured that letter …

This book is ideal for readers who enjoy a good laugh about mankind’s hypocrisy.”

As I leafed through dusty old tomes

I heard a loud rattle of bones.

Twas merely a ghost

Stealing crumpets and toast,

But it distracted me from those tomes!

When a Girl Who is Full of Vice

When a girl who is full of vice

Said, “I’ll cover you in chocolate and ice!”.

I said, “my dear,

The bishop draws near,

And I hear he’s a connoisseur of vice …!”.
