Versatile Verse 3

She swayed like an Areca tree.

She was slim, tall and raven haired

Although sometimes I didn’t know where to look
As all of her buxom assets she shook

For an encore she danced a daringly low Limbo

But her dance moves were hardly entrancing

Although she was quite brilliant at the tango

All dressed up in just the right rig

She could drink milk stout till it came out of her ears
And whisky, but it brought out the tears...

Then she’ll get merry and dance the Irish jig

And the old radio programme Around the Horn

On second thoughts I'm sure they have both died
All the best comics have, that's why I cried.

But I'd lost my glasses so couldn't really see

On second thoughts I'm sure they have both died

I stayed there all night till I woke up with a start
Someone galloped by with a horse and cart,

Thank goodness it had grown wild and bushy
Someone threw a quilt and a cushy

In an overgrown bed of blood red Astrantia

But luckily landed on a flower.

All this hanging about is something I really hate

My new year's resolution must be to learn patience
