Harry Horsman Poet Free verse

Yorkshire Humour 2

A tourist
stopped to ask a local dalesman
the way, after being satisfied
with the directions given,
the local was asked if he had
lived in the village all of his life.
The local replied
“Not Yet”

Carolyn Devonshire October 13, 2010 at 7:16 AM Good answer from the local, Harry. Otherwise his "epitaph" would have been written. I'm assuming a "dalesman" is someone who lives in a valley. Cute and funny, just like you. Love, Carolyn
