I once had a very nice neighbour
Who always voted for Labour,
Whilst her elderly husband Rory
Was a very high Tory,
And their son, he played the Tabor!

A Beautiful Young Lady Named White
A beautiful young lady named White
Keeps me awake at night,
By playing on her violin,
Which causes quite a din,
But the rests such sweet delight!
On Hearing The Tick Tock Of The Clock
On hearing the tick tock
Of the clock,
On the wall,
I know not
What to write,
For the clock
Says it all.
When A Young Lady Named Leigh
When a young lady named Leigh
Said, “do you like my poetry?”,
I said, “its very nice,
But its full of vice,
So I really like it Leigh!”.
My Hands Are Cold
My hands are cold
And I am growing old.
The wall clock measures time
As I rhyme
Of young women
And sinning.
But I am growing old
And my hands are cold.
Passing
Thinking of a young woman I met,
I enter my bathroom.
No scent of perfume,
Just cars, in the distance passing by.
There is nothing to regret
So why do I
Think on a young woman I met
And cars passing me by?
A Young Man Named Lake
A young man named Lake
Said, “your poems are very opaque”.
So I wrote one in latin,
About girls in pink satin,
Who keep wicked old poets awake.
Gulls
I
Hear the seagulls cry,
In Liverpool,
And recall my grandfather, who said,
“They warn of a storm
out at sea”.
Am I a fool
To believe what he said?
I know that the ocean’s commotion
Will long outlast me,
And the waves will still roar
When man is no more.
Duck
Girls from ghettos
In cheap
Stilettos
Keep
The numbers of regulars on their mobile.
And, when down on their luck
Will text, or phone
And say, to men who are alone,
“Let me make you smile.
Come and feed a duck.
And lonely men reach for bread
For the duck
Must be fed
‘Ere a man’s need
For spilled
Seed,
Can be fulfilled.
Friday Afternoon Humour
When a young lady named Lou
Got her shoe stuck in very strong glue
And she said, “help me get it off!”,
I said, with a delicate cough,
“But we are in public just now, Lou!”.

When I saw a witches coven
Dancing around a very hot oven
And they said, “come here”,
I offered them some beer,
And joined them in their coven.
