U3A Writing: There Was A Young Lady From Dyke...
Elwyn Frankel brings some rhyming fun.
There was a young lady from Dyke
Who went for a ride on her bike
She fell off in a ditch, said It's time for a switch
In future I'll go for a hike.
*
There was a young fella from Joppa
Who came an uncomfortable cropper
He said, "Look what you've done
I was out for a run
Now I look like I've been through the hopper."
*
Once a young bloke from Mildura
Said, "I will be able to fool 'yer."
But his girlfriend said, "Hey
That's not the right way
Come on over here and I'll school 'yer."
