72 Miles From The Sea

Friday, 17 March 2023

If all the seas were dried up,

Every bay, lagoon and ocean

Would Poseidon understand why?

Would he even have a notion?

What shape is a kiss?

Oh, my now I’m in a pickle

Well, if you press me

I would say it’s a lip-tickle

Being in the medical profession

And being a private practitioner

Is the most tedious, as it requires

More patients than any other

“You look like a million dollars”

I told my wife and she was all aglow

I didn’t explain that meant not as good

As she did twenty years ago

Apparently, being Happy as Larry

Means you’re a happy Chappie

But I want to know who Larry is

And whys he so bloody happy

Couples on the dance floor

In the heat of their oscillation

Can very easily find themselves

In an agreeable osculation

Wee Willie Winkie ran through the town

Upstairs and downstairs in his night-gown

Wee Willie Winkie wasn’t his real name

It was just a very cold night for that game
