NARROW BOATS ON MY MIND
I dream of a working canal,
Which is for some banal…
Steering long boats
Around castle moats,
If I could, I would…and shall!
–
An English canal is “el neato,”
To lay on the deck in a Speedo ( ! )…
And write what happens
In a warm cabin,
Limericks being my credo.
–
I’d love to work a lock,
With bikini-ed babes along the walk…
But since I’m fat
I’d settle for a cat,
If it didn’t try to water-walk.
–
Alas, it’s too much money
Traveling to England, Honey…
So sit back and dream
Eating ice cream,
Watching English TV that’s funny.
