POETIC ZINGERS

 


3937

Our daughter and grandson came over for dinner tonight, and afterwards as she was talking to her mom, I "blew up" her phone with ad-lib poetry relating to various countries. Following are the admittedly stupid poems I created.
The rain in Spain
falls mainly on the plain
(No, I didn't make that one up)
The men of Mull
toil mainly in the soil
Boys named Nance in France
really love to dance
The women do as they jolly well please
in the country of Belize
The pigs have longer tails
in that tiny place called Wales
The children like sedans
in the country of Japan
The men are so merrio
in the nation called Ontario
The women adore the dogs and kittens
on the islands of Great Britain
There aren't too many hillbillies
in the mountainous part of Chile
Postmen are rarely barked at
in the south and western Arctic
Monkeys and pigs are pets
in the Eastern villages of Tibet
Dogs rarely bark and are
well mannered in Denmark
Mountaineers rarely fall
off the mountains of Nepal
You can buy the best hutch
when you get it from the Dutch

by William McDonald, PhD
