Whilst Walking Along A Mean Urban Street

Whilst walking along a mean urban street
I met a girl with petite feet.
She was far from witty,
But was really quite pretty.
And she walks that mean urban street …

When I Said to Pretty Miss Ling

When I said to pretty Miss Ling,
“Passion, it is a very strange thing!”.
The vicar raised his old eyebrows
As she took off her blouse.
While the bishop spoke of the spring.

When A Young Lady Soaking in My Bathtub

When a young lady soaking in my bathtub
Said, “I want to go down the pub”.
I said, “my dear Rose
First, put on some clothes!”.
But Miss Rose, she has never been good …

When a young lady soaking in my bathtub
Said, “I want to go down the club”.
I said, “my dear Rose
First, put on some clothes!”.
She said, “but Kevin, it’s a strip club!”.

Poet Kevin Morris’s Interview on Vancouver Co-Op Radio’s The World Poetry Reading Series, on Thursday 17 December 2020

On Monday 14th December, I was privileged to be interviewed by Ariadne Sawyer for Vancouver Co-Op Radio’s the World Poetry Reading Series. The interview took place over Zoom, and was broadcast earlier this evening.

My interview takes place approximately 12 minutes into the podcast and lasts for around 10 minutes.

I listened to the show using Google Chrome, so can verify that this browser works.

Please note, there is a minute or so of dead air at the start of the podcast, prior to the show beginning.

My Mistress

My pretty young mistress named Alice
Resides in the great Crystal Palace.
The bishop’s wife Claire
Has a cold stare.
And her daughter’s name is Alice.

On Entering My Brand New Shower

As I entered my brand new shower
I met a young lady named Power.
She said to me,
“May I have tea?
But first, lets try this power shower!”.

Churchyard Tree

A tall tree
Arrested me
As I
Passed by
The churchyard yesterday.

When I
Go away
The tree will stay.
And others will pass by.
And, perhaps, think as I.

The Missing Cat

When a girl wearing a huge hat
Said, “has anyone seen my pet cat?”.
A man named Steve
Said, “my dear Eve,
That cat is concealed in your hat!”.

Walking a Tightrope

A young lady walking a tightrope
Said, “singing it helps me cope”.
So she sang real loud,
Which wowed the huge crowd.
But alas, that tightrope it broke!
