George Stanworth Poet Triolet

We Nearly Went To Venice

We nearly went to Venice. (You had to go to work.)
We nearly went to Paris. (You said your head was sore.)
We nearly went to Brussels. (You said your finger hurt.)
We nearly went to Venice. (You had to go to work.)
We nearly went to Chile. (You wouldn’t leave your ‘Merc’.)
We nearly went to Paris. (You said your head was sore.)
We nearly went to Venice (You had to go to work.)
We nearly went to Counselling. (I left the day before!)
