The Ides of March
Julius Caesar
must have been an East-end geezer.
Cos every year he went
and took a holiday in Kent.
On Liturgy
A tea light brightens up the church
Pebbles won't leave you in the lurch.
But if to read God's Words you dare,
You're better off with Morning Prayer.
On Ecclesiastical Ambition
To become a cardinal
is rather hard 'n' all
Being a vicar
Is much, much quicker.
David Croft
The better works of David Croft
are on the television oft.
But it's hard to savour
"Grace and Favour".
Beware the march of the ides. They're related to orcs.
ReplyDeleteThere once was a blogger called G
ReplyDeleteWho dreamed he had his own see
He was the parson
Of Beaker Folk with sarsen
And was much more poetic than me
Gone Bats
ReplyDeleteA kebab shop run by a Bengali
Was opened in Husborne Crawley
The Belfry was cleared
The bats disappeard
So did the Bengali from Husborne Crawley
Ian Heavy
Birdsong
ReplyDeleteI saw a robin in a tree
He sang as he looked down on me
Oh what great fools those mortals be
Who dare prefer the chickadee
To me.
I thank you all for the wonderful poetry. Especially yours, CB. Lovely.
