Best Londoners Poems

When first I saw London, it was in a book in the library,
But then I came to England, experiencing its history.

The Bridges over the river Thames, like sentinels over the city stand...
While the long Buildings of Parliament, lay beneath Big Ben's command.
The Palace Guard at...

As I walk through the turmoil of ADHD
I wonder to myself, why did it have to be me?
what happened to me as a child?,
to make me feel so wild?
why cant I control my mouth and my brain?, 
why do I feel I'm going insane?
south Londoners...

I.

Higgledy piggledy
Roger de Coverley
Fonder of hoofing it
Than of romance

Found himself typified
Characteristically
King of the Reels and the
Lord of the Dance.  

II.

Willety wallety
William the Conqueror
Wanted his subjects to
Quail at his power,

Crowing to Londoners
Hyperdespotically, 
“Look, everybody, I’ve
Built me a tower!”

III. 

Rickety tickety
Wolfram von Eschenbach
Sought for a subject...

Peppie was feeling cool  

Watching the sky blue  

Realizing he was on top  

Above good ole rival Klopp  

When Chelsea arrived  

To the beehive  

With intention  

For a conversation about the detention  

That should be mentioned ...

A buffalo’s another name for bison, 
Don’t you know?

But you can’t boil your Christmas pud
Inside a buffalo …






This is a pun on the word “basin”, which Londoners (and Aussies) pronounce “bison”.
It’s an English thing …...

The year was sixteen-sixty-four
A comet crossed the sky,
And Londoners looked on in fear
Convinced the end was nigh.

The streets which once were paved with gold
Were now awash with waste.
A swarm of flies and scourge of rats
Foretold the death they faced.

And so it was that London town
Was...

A word once spelled out  

Defining what Saturday Night was all about  

Lads from Bay City  

Scene colorful, enchanting, and ever so pretty  

Roller and rocking  

Having one number that brought opportunity knocking  

Entertaining enthusiastic disco dance girls ...

The British in the past
Seemed to have more grit
The Londoners of old
Bombarded in the Blitz
Shook their fists in defiance
Such were the plucky Brits
People alive today
Would never stand for it
They’d shout about human rights
And probably serve a writ...

Bells burst across the town, the city, all over London's workhouses and minories
A world of glad and beautiful things rush into mans hearts bringing back memories,
Days of darkness and trial, scenes of fraud, faithlessness fade away and disappear,
A world of hard iron men and all...

The games are on in London!
All the athletes are prepared.
I hope they brought their brollies*
For their trainers** won’t be spared.

Security is spotty,
As Mitt Romney had to blurt;
But Cameron was reassuring,
Though quite miffed and curt.

For Londoners, the traffic jams
Are nightmarish and wrong.
To them, the games are...

you pay your college fees
you fall in love
you plan the babies
and save for the future
you book next years holiday
and give up beer
and 
when life is planned
and the future looked after
you are running five minutes
too late for work
you get in the wrong train
at the wrong station
in...

Waiting for bubbles 
Here on the pitch 
Hope there will be no trouble 
From Liverpool being in a winning niche 
Known for being paper back writers 
And always having the attitude of being fighters 
The Reds will have to deal Hammies who thing they are...

London people

Londoners are very kind people, people of love, I love all of them
It is good to live with them in this so fantastic world city, Metropol

Metropol, the same as Athens in the old age; culture, civilization
Live here is a great realistic dream, a gift...

Something happened that shook the ground 
The Hammies were victory bound 
Two goals up late in the game 
They thought the words of relegation would be tamed 
Suddenly, the seagulls started to pest 
Not allowing the Hammies a rest 
Finding the net, a goal closer...
