Dear Jack the Reaper

Dear Jack the Reaper
              Flipping and fiddling, one might say engrossed by the impression
                               Formally geared up for the occasion
                                     With eyes lit like clippers
                          Walking and hands in pockets dipper
                               Delighted by the label ‘Keeper’
                                  Awaiting for the aftermath
                                  For he is a walking chipper
                               Grinded, shredded I shed a tear
                                    And for a thought is like
                                 She turn-up when ends meet
                                      That Mona Lisa smile
                                Stripping to entice mine eyes
                             Leaper leaping towards mine soul
                                       Dear Lucy the Leaper
