Diva Going Up

Lilly Fay was an operatic singer Touted as being a diva humdinger She could hit High C, Easy as could be But up there it's impossible to linger. written March 25, 2022

Not many can even get up there!

I’ve come by here several times, And I end up deleting my lines For a humdinger chuckle, I’ve tried not to buckle To committing more bawdy crimes

She tried to escape, but I caught her, Like an ink pen in need of a blotter. All this talk of high Cs, Conjures pirates with ease, And scales chum the fish in the waters!

She's an operatic soprano, Jeff. That's all!
