Said, “your rhyme it is truly divine!”

Do give me a kiss!”
She said, “first give me more wine!”
More wine

The Poetic Old Goat
There once was a poetic old goat
Who went and swallowed a coat.
He said, “that was delicious!”
But the effects were pernicious,
As a button stuck in his throat!
Identity
I heard my entry phone go.
I said, “hello?”
He said, “Its Tesco”.
I replied, “its not me!”

To have said, “its not for me”.

But, you see
I was not thinking of my identity
At the time,
For my mind
Was caught up in rhyme!

In the wood I know well.

Was very profound
And the forest rang with birdsong.

But I was wet through
And wanted home
And hot tea!

Has a reputation as an unreliable narrator.

In a rundown old hovel.
But some whisper, he’s only a waiter …!
spectacle
A young lady who wears 1 spectacle
Has a reputation for being very respectable.
I’ve seen her at night
Dancing by the moon’s light,
And she’s only been wearing 1 spectacle …!
Bella’s Complaint
When a young lady named Miss Bella
Went and called me a rude fella,
I said, “my language isn’t crude!
And you madam are most rude!
You are thinking of some other fella!”
There Once Was an Author Named Kafka
There once was an author named Kafka
Whose books are all lacking in laughter.
There can be no denial,
For I have it on file:
His books are all lacking in laughter.
