Maddie Revisited

Yesterday (24 April), I posted a humorous poem entitled “There Was a Young Lady Called Maddie”, https://kmorrispoet.com/2020/04/24/a-young-lady-named-maddie/.

I emailed my poem to my friend Andrew, who replied with a slightly modified version of my limerick.

Below is my limerick, followed by Andrew’s poem:

A young lady named Maddie
Placed an ad for a sugar daddy.
She received lots of replies
From some rather weird guys.
And I sent her my tea caddy.

There was a young lady called Maddie,
placed an ad for a sweet sugar daddy.
She received lots of replies
from both girls and sad guys.
But the best from her friend named Maggie.

My Poem, “At A Time of Social Distancing”, read by Actor and BBC Announcer David Vickery

I recently blogged regarding the actor, David Vickery’s kind offer to read poems submitted to him on the subject of the Corona Virus, https://kmorrispoet.com/2020/04/17/share-your-poems/.

I am delighted to be able to announce that my poem, “At A time of Social Distancing”, is now available on Youtube and can be found here, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JFwdVUyS_cs&list=UUERRl7-EinGfUMCKePVlD3A.

In addition to “At A Time of Social Distancing”, David has also recorded a number of other poems, all of which can be found on his Youtube (please see link above).

When A Young Lady Named Lex

When a young lady named Lex
Sent me an extremely explicit text,
I said, with a deep sigh,
You have got the wrong guy.
But I really enjoyed your text!”.

A Young Lady Named Maddie

A young lady named Maddie
Placed an ad for a sugar daddy.
She received lots of replies
From some rather weird guys.
And I sent her my tea caddy.

When My Friend Whose Name Is Round

When my friend whose name is Round
Said, “Soon, I shall be cold underground”.
I wept buckets for him.
But his beautiful girlfriend Kim,
She will still be very much around!

A Young Lady Whose Name Is Shand

A young lady whose name is Shand
Is fond of the one night stand.
She takes the men home
Then, stands all night alone.
She’s a strange young lady is Shand!,

When I Said To My Friend May

When I said to my friend May,
“Do you work for the CIA?”,
She said, with a big smile,
“You have such wit and style.
I don’t want to kill you today!”.

I Met A Young Lady On Zoom

I met a young lady on Zoom
Who said she lived on the moon.
I said, “in that famous old nursery rhyme,
Which has been around for such a long time,
Why did the cow jump over the moon?”.
