A maiden from Kalamazoo
Was lonely and feeling quite blue

Yes, I agree I’m pedantic ?
But besides that, I’m romantic
My heart's on my sleeve
I'll always believe
That poetry faults make me frantic.

We seem to have abandoned the strict rules so forgive me for altering it

A holiday soon in the States
With all of my very best mates
I only have one
And he is no fun
And sadly his humour just grates

A holiday soon in the States
With all my very best mates
But alas! I only have one
And he’s absolutely no fun

I wish good weather was certain
Sun ☀️ when I open the curtain
But I might see hail
Which is beyond the pale
And gets my arthritis to hurtin'.

The month of June is nearly upon us
So chuck your vest- don’t be a wuss
Your leggings as well
Can sure go to hell
And sleeveless tops? That’s a bonus!

Don’t cast a clout till May be out,
Wear a woolly vest or you'll get gout
And wear pantaloons
While you dance in the dunes
Then sit right down with a glass of stout

Then I'd love a dip in a pool
It would definitely make me feel cool
Some lengths back and forth
All backstroke of course
I know I look such a fool.
