Notes About The Poem

A Few More Footles

Lets meet
My treat.

She died
We cried.

Trapeze
Don't sneeze.

Lent fast
Wont last.

Blown leaves
Bare trees.

Roulette
Place bet. 

Strip tease
Weak knees.

Sunday
You pray.

Babe Wakes
Sleep breaks.

Work shy
Bye bye.

Contest
Who's best.

Jobs done
Now fun.

Bewitched
Nose twitched.

Team wins
Big grins.

Mask off
Don't cough.
