A girl gave me daffodils today.
I said
“Thank you” (as I ought).
Some of them are, already, dead

“Can You Hear The Birds?” She Said
“Can you hear the birds?” she said
As we lay
In bed.
I pondered on our play
Of yesterday,
And On is and ought.
And on how she
And me
Have more in common than I thought.
A Young Lady Who Is Divine
A young lady who is divine
Invited me out to dine.
But a waiter named Jim
Said, “that’s my girlfriend Kim”!
So I smiled and ordered the wine.
When A Young Man Whose Name Is Moore
When a young man whose name is Moore
Called me a crushing bore,
I spoke of pink plastic ducks
And multicoloured rubber hooks,
But first I locked the door!
Its True That Double Beds Are Made For 2
Its true
That double beds are made for 2
But when tea
Turns into wine
3 can be divine.
Or so I understand
From a girl named Bland,
Who says that she
Can introduce me …
There Was A Young Man Named Glover
There was a young man named Glover
Who fell in love with a plover.
But when his love was unrequited
With a flighty young woman he united,
Which didn’t please his mother!

When A Young Lady Whose Name Is Heather
When a young lady whose name is Heather
Went out in windy weather,
She wore an extremely short dress,
Which I must confess
Was not exactly clever!
A Young Lady Whose Name Is Bland
A young lady whose name is Bland
Said, “your wish is my command”!
So I whispered in her ear.
But oh consequences most drear,
I received the back of her hand!
A Flirty Young Lady Named Lou
A flirty young lady named Lou
Lost her party shoe.
But a vicar called Ned
Found it under his bed,
Which pleased that young lady Lou!
A Girl in Heels and Scars
A girl in heels
And scars
Sees not the stars
Above, but feels
The rhythmic motion
Of a rising ocean
Coming to the boil.
Soon the bob, throb
Of the ship will cease.
Bringing peace
From her toil.
But there must be
Another captain of the sea
To receive the charms
Of heels and scars
Until his ship lies becalmed
In arms
Struggling to see
The stars
K Morris - Poet
