Morris the Thesaurus TortoiseOcie the Ocelot liked words a lot!
As a tot, words like dot and trot hit the spot
Then, getting older, the folder on her shoulder grew bolder
What was once handy stopped ringing so dandy
Craving vocabulary candy to bandy
She sought what she ought, to form lukewarm to...

Light Verse
Wait Until Morris Gets HereWait until Morris gets here, the settlers told the Guerillas.
The notorious gang laughed without an ounce of concern.
They had encountered tough opponents, and reigned victorious.
Where is Morris? Someone whispered. Others began to whisper it too.
Morris must be some badass, the head of the gang thought.
It...

The Morris Dance
We hope that Early English dance alone retains its zest,
to charm and please our devotees, we do our level best.
We’re not quite sure if all we do, has quite the Morris ring;
but, anyway, we’ll strut around then try and do our thing.
We ring our bells...

The Morris Minor Man (My First Ever Poem)The Morris Minor Man.
He was the Morris Minor Man
from down in Burton Joyce
I went with him to buy one
a green one was his choice
he could have had a Vauxhall
he could have had a Ford
but not the Morris Minor Man
from down in Burton Joyce.
He started with...

David Morris 1840-1914David Morris
1840-1914
I was indeed a rich man!
A lucky man, a family man,
A man firmly ensconced in the faith
Of the Nazarene.
It is written my friends
That to live for Christ
Is the summit of wisdom,
For wise men still seek Him!
And to die for Christ
Is the absolute acme...

Epitaph
MorrisThe very first time I saw him
I thought he looked sublime
Never dreaming in all the world
That one day he would be mine,
He was not what you'd call 'a head turner'
He didn't stand out in a crowd
But in my eyes, Morris was gorgeous
When I was with...

"morris" the Manx"Morris" The Manx
A "tailess" menace is what he can be..
Getting into everything; so full of energy!
A cheshire grin, a pair of big mischievous eyes..
Jumping out of nowhere, he likes to surprise!
He prances around, chasing everything freestyle.
Frolicking about, I have to smile.
Running like a rabbit,...

Free Dai MorrisAs the hills and streets fall silent
and the shadows claim the land
As you rest your head for another night
spare a thought for an innocent man
"Free Dai Morris"

ACAB ?
Well they are making it seem that way
Justice will continue to be fought for
until...

Sliced open by her armor

God Speed For Gary MorrisA friend of mine, well past his prime
lay in his dreary bed,
calling me and asking, "Please,
come visit me I beg."
I said I would just as I should
tomorrow, after sunrise,
but little did I know it then
life passed before his eyes.
A promise...
