Premium Member The Nun With Sunshine Hair
On a hot midsummer day, I met a nun with sunshine hair; She moved with grace in every way, Like starlight dancing in the air. I asked if I could have her heart; She laughed, then paused, and gently said: "It's not that we should stay apart, But here I'll dwell until I'm dead." Torn and crushed, I said, "It's fine— Your radiant hair,...

The lady was quite civic minded, as a nun she always presided midnight to noon on the harp until her old dog did bark Mum I fear your tune is one-sided!

Nun of That, Now
Turning right against the light’s Illegal in New Yawk. That rule’s observed by drivers, Not by those who run or walk. In other places, no such law Exists, so often plates Of cars which turn when they should not Reflect their different states. And that is why I was surprised When, right in front of me, A New York car ignored the red And turned illegally. What...

Blue Nun Music
The psychedelic décor and Sergeant Pepper wore the same uniformly gaudy tones. Burgundy striped stockings hung on a lava lamp, puff the magic dragon dwelt in our rented rainbow. A poster of Leonard Cohen as a young man. Shag carpet for cozy shagging. A Paddington apartment above a smoky railway. A girl drinking Liebfraumilch waiting for me to come home with a used album...
