Roy Pett Poet Monorhyme

Three Tribes

‘‘Twas in those mountains of south Scillies 
lived three tribes, first was the silly Bybillies,
men wear fancy frocks, women wear frillies 
second of the tribes were tough big bullies,
they were known as mountain Blowbillies
so tough they eat tons of red hot chillies,
third of the tribes grew roses and tiger lilies
this friendly group best known as Hillbillies,
wild and free never visited any big cities
one night all three tribes met at uncle willies
he had the very best barn and good facilities,
sadly a fight broke out between Blowbillies 
Hillbillies and Bybillies caused awful activities,
Bybillies ate all the Blowbillies red hot chillies,
Blowbillies were all wearing frocks and frillies,
Hillbillies were all smelling of roses and lilies.
