THROUGH THE SILENT LANDSCAPE

 

Snow was falling, soft and steady

Settling on the silent landscape  

Fresh snow laying on the old

The only sounds to be heard

Were of his crunching footsteps

Through the deep fallen snow

And his coarse rasping breaths    

Pluming in the cold morning air

I HAVE A VERY UNUSUAL PET

 

I have a very unusual pet

He’s a Madagascan Chameleon

But he can’t change colour

As he has a reptile dysfunction

I SEE GENTLY FALLING SNOW

 

I see gently falling snow

Through a picture window

Dusting the evergreens

Into perfect winter scenes

AUTUMN MORNING

 

The mist cascaded down the hillside

Like a maiden’s hair

Tumbling onto her shoulders

The bare branches of the birch trees

Pierced though the mist like fingers   

Reaching up to the heavens

OLD SNOWMEN

 

If you don’t know this

Then I think you oughta

The name for old snowmen

Is simply Water!

SNOWMEN LIKE TO DANCE

 

Snowmen like to dance

As soon as the snow falls

They like to meet girls

And dance at Snowballs

A SNOWMAN IN THE SUN

 

A snowman in the sun

Mustn’t get into a muddle

Because if he does

He will turn into a puddle

SOME PEOPLE ARE LIKE CLOUDS

Some people are like clouds In strange kind of way Because when they fuck off It becomes a beautiful day
