I once had a very quick fling
With a young lady named Miss Ling.
Her friend Miss Bland
Lost a new hairband,
And me and Ling broke a bedspring!

A young man who sat drinking Hock
Attached a sock to his Grandfather’s clock.
His lover Miss Hocking
Removed a silk stocking,
And the vicar he said, “tick tock!”.
As I strolled down a very dark alley
I met with a young lady named Sally.
I said to sergeant White,
“There is no moon tonight
And I was just discussing astronomy with Sally …!”.
Stilettos leave marks
In gentlemen’s hearts.
Or perchance
They dance
With fleeting pleasure
In summer weather,
Which leaves no marks
In lust filled hearts.
I once had a one night stand
With a young lady on Blackpool sand.
When the tide came in
I wept for my sin,
And abandoned that girl on the sand …!
In the wood
My dog chased
A squirrel.
No thought of good
Or bad
Had he,
For he was free
Of morality.
In my mind
I often find,
Squirreled away
A thought
I ought
Not to think
Of play
With prey.
When I trace
Time’s impassive face
I see eternity,
Vast, and empty,
Waiting for me.
There is a young lady named White
Who is known as the gentlemen’s delight.
She works in a club
With that gorgeous Miss Grub
And my doppelganger was there last night …!
There once was a most wicked old cat
Who ate many a fine gentleman’s top hat.
He lived in a house
With a very bad mouse,
And a rat who was known as Matt!
On this cold December Evening
My thoughts turn to leaving.
Though I can not fight
The inevitable night
I can write,
Which gives me some pleasure
In this passing weather.
And words may dance on
When poets are gone.
