Said, “you’re driving my readers up the wall,
As your voice its so horribly loud!”.

When My Friend Whose Name is Matt

When my friend whose name is Matt
Asked me to look after his flat,
Young ladies from Ealing
Danced on the ceiling,
And his neighbours they all cursed Matt!

Asked me to look after his flat,

Said, “my senses are reeling,
And who owns that purple cat?”

Threatened me with a frying Pan,
And said, “you will die!”,
I offered him some pie,
Which mollified that young man named Dan.

Turned to me and said,
“If I had the time I’d use internal rhyme”,

There once was a clever Ukrainian
Who grew a spectacular geranium.
It had many pink flowers
And she spent countless hours
Tending that geranium which grew in her cranium!

There Once Was A Writer Named Sage

There once was a writer named Sage
Who told all his business on the page.
Each affair of the heart
He described in his art,
And his lovers they all sued Sage!
