Count up what you have been blessed with
Neglect to factor in "no pith"
And what you'll have left
Is "witty" and "deft"
Which earns you the title of "small myth"

I'm kidding- all in good fun-right?

I'm kidding- all in good fun-right?
It's better than being uptight.
Keep up the good cheer
Let's all drink some beer
And dance in the sun's healing light.

The joys of the Spring are at hand

The joys of the Spring are at hand
Buds bursting throughout all the land
Sap's running in trees
Lambs born, running free
World turning as nature has planned.


On your next trip to the seaside

On your next trip to the seaside
Make sure you play in the surf
The sand and the sea
Can equally be
As fun to play in as turf.

I took the ferry to Bath,
In England this raises a laugh,
because Bath is a town
of Georgian reknown
whose river just cuts it in half !

Whilst meeting my friend from the Lands End,


Good heavens fresc. You broke the syllable rule and balls it up at the same time.

Whilst meeting my friend from Land's End.
To see how much cash he might lend.

I feel I must say what a wonderful thread this is.

Where else could you see somebody rhyming seaside and surf and it make so much sense.

I love you all my darling Limers. You bring joy and happiness and that is something money can't buy.

Spendius,

Aren't you supposed to finish the verse ?

fresco- No. You can just add one line or do a few verses. It's easy going on here. Suit yourself. But getting the rhythm right gains a modicum of approval.

Whilst meeting my friend from Land's End.
To see how much cash he might lend.
I went to his flat
And found only his cat
And a turd stuck in the U-bend.

The back door was hanging ajar
And there was no sign of his car
Except for some marks
Where he usually parks
And a strong smell of burning tar.

My mates are all letting me down.

My mates are all letting me down.
They'd rather be running to town
To shop like lil' girls
With cute barbie curls
So I drink my beer with a frown

And order another to go

And order another to go
And add some more woe to the woe
When in comes our Nell
Whose tale I could tell

She's such an adorable hoe

We should't talk bad of our friends
It's such an abhorrent, sad trend
Besides-tomorrow
You might need to borrow
Whatever you need they can lend.

(You're not going anywhere, are you Spendius?) Crying or Very sad

Please tell me your tale about Nell
Or are you still trying to sell
Book and movie rights

Or are you still trying to sell
Book and movie rights
of wild sordid nights
guaranteed by the hostess from Hell.

Prince Charles never eats a Big Mac,
Not after his third heart attack
He wants no junk food
It's bad for the mood
And makes him do worse in the sack

"Perchance", said the heir to the throne
"One ought to relinquish one's phone.
The press listen in
So eager for sin
One stiffles one's moan or one's groan ".

His sister was learning to salsa,
In wellies and an old balaclava
By God she was crude
And often quite rude
