Jack Ellison Poet Narrative

In Spite of My Loving Nature

(Tongue planted firmly in cheek)





In spite of my loving nature

In spite of being an Olympic skater

In spite of my charming way with the ladies

And my absolute love of wee babies

In spite of having a voice that rocks

And looks so dashing wearing just socks

In spite of my hair that's a silvery white

And a tan that doesn't rub off every night

In spite of a fabulous smile I possess

And stunning good looks, yup you guessed

Though I do admit I've got a naughty side

Some of the above, well I might have lied

Especially about looking good in just socks

People at times, they yell and throw rocks

But that doesn't phase me, I know I'm a charmer

Perhaps I should wear a steel suit of armour

It'a all in fun, I'm not really a looker

Forgot to mention, I'm real good at snooker
