a C of E rector in his day
Determined to de-saxonise
clothed his verse in dialectic disguise

There was an old woman from Dorset
Who forgot to fasten her corset
When she was in town
Her knickers also came down
To save her face
She had to race
To reach a water closet.

There once was a man who came from Dorset,
Who tried to repair his leaking faucet.
But he sure did not think,
He would soon break the sink.
When he misused his multi tool saw-set.

Dearest Janet,
I would love to come to your parents' Boxing Day Party.
I adore you. I want to marry you.
But if you are still angry I will understand.
Just give me a sign ~
I anxiously await your reply.
Forever yours,
Henry
In 2008, Janet Barrett, a guest-house owner in Weymouth, Dorset, UK, received a letter – an RSVP to a Boxing Day party invitation, which had been posted on 29 November 1919. It was 81 years late! (dramatized content)
