Morris the Thesaurus Tortoise
Ocie 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 hot
Mooshu, the emu guru, knew what to do
To bring notice...

Light Verse
Wait Until Morris Gets Here
Wait 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 would be fun to put Morris in his place.
A blonde-headed...

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 like this, we tap our sticks like that;
we know it...

Stevland Morris Aka Stevie Wonder
Stevland Morris is the real name of Stevie Wonder
Though blind soon after birth it didn’t push him under
Exceptionally talented performer from a tender age
Virtuoso musician and singer when he's on a stage
‘Little Stevie Wonder’ at the age of just thirteen
Achieved a number one hit on the music scene
Now he has a star on the Hollywood...

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 a Land Rover
and had a Scimitar too
he even had a...

David Morris 1840-1914
David 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 of human existence.
Rachel and I came to this heaven on...

Epitaph
Morris
The 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 him, I always felt proud
Life with him was never at...

"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, he climbs up a tree!
Clawing his way back down with...

Free Dai Morris
As 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"
the truth speakers say
ACAB ?
Well they are making it seem that way
Justice will continue to be fought for
until the real culprits get that knock upon their door
FREE DAI...

Michelle and Morris In a Nutshell
Michelle introduced us to Morris
Most prolific thesaurus tortoise
Her wording profuse
Just like Dr. Seuss
She most certainly didn't bore us...

Rachel Morris
Rachel is a Great Britain Paralympic rower,
Who changed in 2013 from the sport of cycling,
Because she had a road accident, left her sore,
But she won god in cycling in 2008 in Beijing.
In 2007 at the Worlds in Bordeaux, two golds,
Then in Canada at the Road Worlds in 2010,
She cycled to gold twice. But...

God Speed For Gary Morris
A 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 made but one not kept,
I wept for days on end,
for...

Morris Fell Hard For Doris
A brontosaurus by name of Morris
Fell hard for Doris, a stegosaurus
His tush landed right on her
Sliced open by her armor
Lover Boy Morris had quite a saurus...
