FRENCH FAVOURITE

 

As a Nation, the French

Like to eat Snails

But as a fast food option

The traditional dish fails

GALLIC SANDALS

 

A Frenchman, wearing sandals,

Was in a bit of a gallic strop

After teasing about his footwear

His name was Phillipe Phillop

I HAD TWO EXAMS TODAY

 

I had two Exams today, English Oral

Followed by the French equivalent one

They were both hard, the only difference

Being the additional application of tongue

WHY DO THE FRENCH EAT SNAILS?

 

Why do the French eat snails?

It’s an odd habit, without being rude

The only explanation I can find

Is that the French don’t like fast food

I CAN’T COUNT TO TEN IN FRENCH

 

I can’t count to ten in French

It’s impossible for me

I can only count to seven

Because I have a huit allergy

AFTER HENRI HAD BEEN TO THE DENTIST

 

After Henri had been

To the dentist his mouth

Was fresh and clean

But undid all the good work

By gargling garlic

Flavoured Listerine

FREDERICK BAZILLE

 

In the woodlands of burgundy

A bright light of impressionism

Was cut down by Prussian rifles

In the name of French imperialism

 

His corpse left decaying in a ditch

Found by his father under burgundy skies

A founder member of a movement

Unnamed until long after his demise
