London By Day

There was a lass in Chinatown
Who sold her shadow for a crown
The buyer said,
"We must be wed!
Its pouring rain and you could drown!"

In the long ago, I was was an insurance exec at 50, Pall Mall, and lived at 112B Cheyne Walk, but due to the rain, saw more of The Kings Arms, than London!! Aloha! Rico
