A Calabus Loved a Calaboose

A calabus loved a calaboose
Went to Calamis to catch a moose
But in a great hurry
Vision's kinda blurry
Cooked in Calais a Catalan goose.
fun

Young Girl of Calais

Young Girl of Calais

There was a young girl of Calais
Who dreamed of dancing ballet
But with her two left feet
and not quite petit
Cest non, said the Calais ballet

These are not donations
But only my frustrations
From working all workstations
Yet no compensations
For Calais formations
From all my creations
Confrontations leads
To my deviations
Exclamations 
In need a vacation
I feel vibrations
Cause my expectations
Is I meet expectations

Premium Member Ice On My Igloo

Ice on my igloo
  roads frosted over
Cursed, cutting cadaverous cold 
  deathly chill from Calais to Dover

Thought it was nippy
  but my fingers are numb
Arctic algidity all around
  winds whistle, envelop my town

Why must we endure
  gelid, glacial Siberian air
Is warmth only comprehended
  when to harrowing cold it's compared

Premium Member Next Week In Calais

I don’t know a tweet from a twitter
  Instagram and Tik-Tok? I was a quitter
I receive lots of texts, but do not send any
  My hands get clammy from spending a penny…

Huh? Wudja say? – Yeah, I’m doing OK.
  Went to Oahu last month; next week to Calais
My life’s insured for ten million; my wife can’t complain
  She purchases bitcoin; I invest in blockchain

No Home

No Home 
There was a young lad who hadn’t a home
so off to the Social he went for a loan.
 He told them, I’m hungry, I’ve nothing to eat
no money no food or shoes on my feet.
They told him ‘No’; He began to cry
He pleaded and asked them why not, Why?
I haven’t even got a bed 
 I may as well be bloody dead.’
Tired hungry and full of woe 
what to do he didn’t know?
So off to Calais he went 
to live with the refugees. In a tent.

Premium Member Apocalypse--

On ever  rushing glowing light;
Surprised by the ultimate
Immersed through the waters bright
multiple cellular truculent covenant

How Nature's passion stirs up my reactions
Climate change so disarray
Expense this year abstraction
Humanities collusion illusions ballet

Pollution the solution is more
Try cold blackened Calais airways
Environmental forces encore
Turbulent Nature's sprays blaze
