The Latest Fashion

Awaking after a night of passion

With a young lady of fashion,

I said to her, “Lou!

We’ve been sleeping in glue!”

She said, “it’s the latest fashion!”

I Once Met Cupid with his Bow

I once met Cupid with his Bow

And said, “there’s this gorgeous girl I know.

Her name is Miss Lee.

Please make her love me!”.

So he shot Miss Lee in her toe!

Lust

I have boldly said

Come to bed

And explored in lust

A stranger’s bust.

Wrapped in the charms

Of warm arms

I have let go.

But I know

That behind all lust

Lurks cold and dust.

Shocking!

I once met a young man named Peter

Who liked to play with his electric meter.

The behaviour of Hocking

Is really quite shocking!

But Hocking is not as shocking as Peter!

The Artistic Young Blonde

I know a very artistic young blonde

Of whom I am extremely fond.

She poses in the nude

Which some think real rude,

But she’s artistic, pretty and blonde!

Kevin’s Poetry Podcast

I was delighted to be interviewed by Ariadne Sawyer of the World Poetry Reading Series on Tuesday 16 April. My segment, which runs for just over 10 minutes and begins approximately 15 minutes in, can be found here, https://www.mixcloud.com/VictorSchwartzman/world-poetry-cafe-april-18-2024-kevin-morris-sharon-taylor/

During my interview, I read a mixture of serious and not so serious poems and discussed my work.

A Young Lady Who is Extremely Clean

A young lady who is extremely clean

Likes to wash in a washing machine.

She dries in a dryer

With a girl named Moriah

And they wash in my washing machine!

Recalling Paula

There was a young lady named Paula,

And very few people can recall her.

She worked in a bar

With a man called Mar –

I think her name it was Paula?

The Joys of Swinging

When a young lady in a short frock

Decided to swing from a very old clock,

The clock’s owner, known as Dan,

Said, “I’m a red blooded man,

But I’m worried you will break that clock!”.

In Morning Time

In morning time

I write a rhyme

Before the riot

Of the coming day

Takes my muse away.

 

I am clay

And hot lust.

But ere I am dust

I have words to say.

 

Perhaps a brief rhyme of mine

Of women and wine

And fleeting time may live on

When I am gone.

 

We all go from the gloom

Of the womb

To the gloom of the tomb.

But take delight

In sunlight, ere we go.
