WYNNE OR NO

 

Do you know who invented the crossword?

I can't remember his name for the life of me

It’s on the tip of my tongue just out of reach

It’s W something N something E

RAMBLING

 

I met a guy from the ramblers today

I think his name was John

He was a harmless bloke I suppose

But he just went on and on

DAYS DOWN BY THE SEA

 

Days down by the sea 

Far away from amusement arcades

Away from the pier

And noisy shopping parades

Just wide empty beaches

The salt sea breeze in my hair

Whatever the weather

I really don’t care

Long languid days

Spent down by sea 

Just a wet shaggy dog

My lady and me

So she ate the doggie instead.

THE NINE MUSES OF THE ARTS – URANIA (MUSE OF ASTRONOMY)

 

The nine muses

Daughters of Zeus

Inspiring of mortals

And nurturers of the arts

The ninth and final was,

The divine Urania,

Heavenly muse,

Was the muse of astrology

A globe in her hand

Dressed in a cloak embroidered with stars

Urania was reader of the stars

I HAVE GIVEN UP SEX FOR LENT # 1

 

I have given up sex for Lent

Which should not disconcert

As I haven’t done it for six years

So another month won’t hurt

I HAVE GIVEN UP SEX FOR LENT # 2

 

I have given up sex for Lent

Which is to some small extent

An empty gesture on my part

As I had to as I have a bad heart
