Poems and the odd joke - 2

poem by: Josh Rogan
Written on Oct 26, 2016

A gum-chewing boy called Jack Mubble,
Did blow an incredible bubble.
He floated away, by the end of the day,
His mum shouted up, ‘You’re in trouble!’

There was an old vicar from Troon,
Who used to Love Rory Calhoun.
On the alter he’d stand, 
with his gun in his hand,
At the service he held at High Noon.

There once was a man-eating lion,
Who ate a zoo-keeper called Brian.
When asked to explain, 
he did stroke his long mane,
And said, ‘Sorry about that, but I’m tryin’.'

The skipper of a pirate ship,
whose name was Topper McGrath,
He’d say tata! or toodle pip!,
as he just couldn’t learn to say, ‘Arrrr!!’
So his men did cough up all their Pieces-of-Eight,
For Piratese lessons for Topper.
He then wouldn’t stop, 
with his ‘Arrrr!!” round the clock,
So in his gob there is now a big stopper.

“Let’s go on Safari,” said one to the other.
“Ok,” did the other reply.
So they crawled through the bushes and lay there in wait,
for the Humans to turn up and then die.
