This guy who wrote rhymes to converse
Liked forms that were funny and terse
To start the bonanza
He threw out a stanza
Hoped someone would add the next verse!

With a love that's exceedingly great,
He'd drive three hundred miles for a date
With the next verse begun,
Just can't leave till it's done
Seems his sweetheart will just have to wait!

The old fellow had developed a stutter
And his writings were begging to suffer
Things got much worse
When he started to curse
Writing poems only fit for the gutter.

He dreamt that the docs found the source,
Changed his voice so he’d neigh like a horse.
In ho-horror, he woke
The da-damn finally broke
His poems aren’t nearly so coarse!

Not only his neighing raised the alarm
But he started sleeping in a barn
He thought it OK
Having a roll in the hay
He certainly wasn't lacking in charm.

At the Preakness, he raced out and led.
Though he lost, he still covered the spread.
His dates are all stunning,
The mares have come running;
His stud fees have gone to his head.

Now his body was feeling the strain
He tried his best to ignore the pain
It'll be a long wait
Before he can mate
That's if he ever recovers again.

He recovered the very next day
And laid twenty six mares in the hay
The best one of all
Led to his downfall
She'd convey he's a bore at horseplay.

Well, he dragged himself home in disgrace
His wife said, “You up for a race?"
In her pink negligee
He had nothing to say
She said, “Honey, now why the long face?"

He said he was lacking energy
The wife said “leave it all up to me”
She sat on his back
Her whip she did crack
And had the ride of her life did she.

All this riding just made him want more
So he went to the Davidson store
He bought him a Harley
One great big and gnarly
And he hit the outdoors with a roar!

With the wind rushing through his hair
He road his bike without a care
What he didn't see
Was the big oak tree
He screamed out who put that there.

Yes, death loomed as large as an oak
And then a most fortunate stroke
With a frog in his path
He swerved, missed and laughed,
“Seems today’s not my day to croak!”

He rode his bike like a maniac
Until he came to a cul-de-sac
Then he gatecrashed a house
All the neighbours came out
And boy did they give some tit for tat.

On the upside, the breezeway is nice
Though it came with a bit of a price
His arm has no feeling
There’s blood on the ceiling
And the measurements: not so precise

His arm is plastered and now in a sling
He wishes that he had been born with wings
Then off he could fly
Right up in the sky
Best of all the flights wouldn't cost anything.

He's now feeling full of remorse
Knowing he should have changed course
Although a mishap
He's one lucky chap
As his bike survived the great force.

After all that excitement off-road
You would think that he just might have slowed
But he’s pretty darned spunky
An adreneline junkie
He’s in Evil Knievel mode!

He got back on his bike and with ease
Over speed limit he did succeed
He came to a bridge
Went over the ridge
Somersaulting alike Hercules.

The road was a bit of a miss
He just gave the guardrail a kiss
That notwithstanding
He stuck his landing
And launched off into the abyss
