awkward always alone Allie
bragged boastfully to baby Bertie Bill
clearly clarifying club-footed cloven Callie
deliberately deciphering dairy dung in Dickie Dill
easing eager Edgar’s electrifying entry
forever forsaking flim-flam’s frequent flam
greasing gray grannie’s gentle gentry
hardily helping herself to Harry’s hottish ham

WEATHER FUN
You can’t control weather at the Pole;
But Thule as a rule is always quite cool.
You’ll hate Scottish weather - it’s never really hottish,
And the climate in Chile you’ll always find chilly.
It’s true - Spanish snow can soon vanish;
But in Spain, rain stays (- mainly in the plain.)
Find mists in Turkey - they may be sometimes murky.
Seek the dampness of mireland - it’s famous in Ireland.
But your worst event may be to have spent Lent in Kent;
To have been cursed first with thirst in Amherst;
Or having to meet sleet in the street in Crete;
Or worse yet, to abet a debt in wet Tibet.

SCOTSMEN
Though it be strange enough to the rest
For music to soothe the savage breast
Those who choose bagpipes would be Scottish
Strange breed those guys north of the border
Only they would design a kilt to order
In a region where the climate is anything but hottish
Outsiders who try to understand Glaswegians
Think that they almost sound like Norwegians
Well, they are kinda polyglottish
Ah! But thank god they are excellent engineers
The steam engine was perfected with no peers
In a style uniquely James Wattish
