Short Dover Poems

And quickly would assume that pose
But everyone knows
It isn't her toes
That beckons to so many beaux!...

With Peter, Dick, & Ben Dover
The Vicar dropped by
And all heard her cry,
"Love the seats in your Range Rover!"...

is this summer’s most delightful rover
He’ll swim and he’ll play
on Delaware Bay
having a blast ‘till the day is over...

With neighbours Neil Down and Ben Dover
She loved to rehearse
Playing Doctor and nurse
When done she would simply start over....

Went into the pantry to find a cookie
A gay man from Dover
seeing him bending over
said I just can't believe I'm that lucky

Grover Deaver drove his diesel down to Dover--
Down to Dover in the state of Delaware.
I told Grover that his rig was overloaded,
But Grover Deaver said he didn't care....

Alas the real me has been tempest tossed
I've been combing the world no matter the cost
Searching all over
From Delhi to Dover
Wherever I look I turn up lost

We'll all wear a four-leaf clover
'til COVID-19 is over
But it will not stop
'til Trump takes a hop
Off of the White Cliffs of Dover*

*They are WHITE, after all!...

Well fed up with his life and his cattle
So  he took off with a boat
But that boat did not float
And started to swim from Dover to Dunkirk...

Goodbye, Vera Lynn then, goodbye
Fly high, little bluebird, fly high
At the white cliffs of Dover
They think it’s all over
It is now. Go on, have a cry

 I once met an old bloke from Dover
Who fancied a roll in the clover 
He popped a blue pill 
But was floppy still 
So he didn’t get his leg over!

I knew a man from Kent, so did I
Hiding a bomb in his pants he did try
One day while in Dover
He tripped and fell over
And was last seen kissing his own ass goodbye...

Could Be White Cliffs

Over certain city my moon had been over,
And could see shining on a field of clover;
Were enchanted;
More we planted;
Down below were the white cliffs of Dover.

I went to my bank yesterday
As I went to work, it’s on my way
I said to the cashier Miss Valance
“Hello can you check my balance”
She replied “yes certainly Mr. Dover”
Then walked round and pushed me over...

WE HAVE NO INTERNET, LIFE IS TRULY OVER
Can't remember what we did, tripsied through the clover?
Held hands and talked
Real words, had thoughts
Even had time to sing, “White Cliffs Of Dover!”<>...

A distraught driver drove to Dover
Running roughshod in his Rover,
Crushing cultivated clover,
Mangling marigolds, moreover,
Pancaking progeny of plover.
Liquor-laden lies to lover;
Outcome: outed, ousted, over....

Ladies marry the man of their dreams in a church
Eventually... she ends up married to a couch that burps
Happens the world over
From Brisbane to Dover
He could be an axe murderer so things could be worse...

Could've been an axe murderer and things would've been worse...

The wind blew so hard, I fell out of my tree
Not literally my friends, but I did start to pee
Inspired “Yellow Waterfall” by I. P. Dover
A bestseller the whole damn world over
Back to the blow, sure had to duck some debris...

Life is over. I've lost the golden clover...
S'over, s'all over, when I'm here in Dover...
Sunk the ship, an' airplanes flown over...
S'pose I done it to m'self, and moreover...
I'm simply a-wastin' 'way here....

Cut the chords 'fore I am abhorred.......

Incense and peppermint
shades go round
smoke curls shapes abound
night passes and a life spent

Suspense and clover
shadow mocks
stranger knocks
the windows frosted over

Intense and cruely sober
memory hurts
heart spurts
facing the cliffs of Dover...

Tweet-tweet,
vite, vite*!
retweet
and quit.
Two pretty French birds, tweeting over
retweety-quittie-witty Dover.

(fr.) [vit] quick, quick!

He kept saying his king was “such a squirrel” over and over.
I thought he was being disrespectful to the monarch, my brother Dover.
But then I met the king who was breaking walnuts with his teeth.
In a way, finding out he was a real squirrel was kind of a relief....

…loving you is burning me over


…I’m restless like an eagle on the white cliffs of dover


…I can’t but remember your beautiful lovely smile


…And the sweetness of your embrace.


When…


…you are not here


…and I’m missing you big


I just get on my knees and pray for you...
