On the Occasion of the Local Elections In Devizes
The votes of the folk of The Vize
Be all Tory, well there's a surprise
The hills are all blue
With a loud tally hoo
What's to do? I don't know but one tries

God Loves Little Jacqui Clark
For the Reverend Jacqui Clark, of the church of St.John the Baptist, Devizes, with love
 
God loves little Jacqui Clark
With all her kind and merry ways
Bright darling candle in the dark
Dear joyful soul who lights our days
Thank you, Jacqui, for the love
You bear to heal our hurt and pain
For blesséd manna from above
Flows forth from you
Like gentle rain

A Limerick Reply To Tom Cunningham's Ref: Jan Allison - This Limerick Below In Fun
Dear Tom, IN FUN


not intentionally trying to stealing Jan's glory.
in limerick rhyme, I too can tell a good story!
Tom Cunningham, I can!
A touch of meanness I am!
Come on let's make this limerick all gory!

oh I don't often win those big  prizes
from the loins of that woman from Devizes
my verse, all one-sided
just small, my hand guided
by me mum, that woman! Of 2, different sizes!

couldn't resist, in fun...  Mick...
