POTHERING

 

He was in such a pother

Such was the lot of the suitor

For he was to ask for his lady’s hand

Well that was what he had planned

But he was in such a nervous state

He couldn’t get his head straight

He was sure she would be receptive

But signs can be deceptive

So he resolved to do what was planned

And ask for his lady’s hand

Although to be perfectly fare

He was more interested in the rest of her

PARTIALITY

 

Have you always been partial to a skinny red head?

But you married a twenty stone brunette instead

Have you always hankered for someone small and petite?

Instead, you married a woman with size ten feet

Were you attracted to intelligent women with wit?

But instead, you married some uncouth twit

Did you always fancy a girl with figure that swings?

But instead, you’re stuck with miss bingo wings

Do you ever think your perfect woman got away?

Well, you are not alone because I think it every day

SCANNING THE ROOM

 

A rather tall, elegant woman

Entered the room

And made a quick appraisal

Of those in her presence

The look she gave my way

Needed no vocalization

She had no need to say “ugh”

The look made redundant

Any need of an exclamation of disgust

The haughty expression

And the inclination of her head,

The involuntary sneer

Spoke volumes as to her disposition

Which was fine by me

Because I liked the look of her mate

CATWALK STRUT

 

She strutted down the catwalk

In an outfit to make the critics talk

It was called simply “Iridescence”

And had a lustrous, brilliant appearance

Her outfit was called the wonder of the age

I think I’d prefer something in beige

FIVE GALS NAMED JO

 

Jo the trumpet

The musical strumpet

She was crumpet

But her lips were hard and dry

 

Jo with the deep voice

Oh how I rejoice

She was so very choice

With no Adams apple I’m pleased To say

 

Jo with the flat chest

Had nothing inside her vest

But I was still blessed

For she had other attributes

 

Jo with the all over tan

Jo Jo the can can

The perfect gift for man

Had a beautiful white toothed smile

 

Jo the pretty faced

With the narrow waist

Was to everyone’s taste

Even the other Jo’s

SENIOR CONTRACEPTION

 

Jimmy was in his seventies

And took himself a young wife

His biggest concern was fatherhood

At his time of life

 

“What birth control would you suggest?

Which would be best for me?”

He asked his doctor, who replied

“I think in your case, nudity”

UNDER ACHIEVING

Gillian finished her first week at school

And had a very unhappy look on her face

She said to her mum who was showing concern

“I’m just wasting my time at that place”

Mum asked her “why ever do you think that?”

Then Gillian exploded in an angry squawk

“Well mother I can't read, and I can't write,

And then they won't even let me talk!'
