The Familiar To You and Me
We would French Burgundy sip,
Hands of intimate ones grip,
Up the flaps of trousers zip,
Together documents clip,
Through borrowed newspapers flip,
Buckets into rivers dip,
Good waiters in hotels tip,
Open promised parcels rip,
Penniless The Costly skip,
Ideas we think okay quip;
Across Big Waters things ship
We would from seen danger slip,
Try not to over stones trip,
In the bud the hurting nip,
Roofs patch up that waters drip
For the quite clearly familiar
Not a single thing peculiar.
