A squab, a squid, a squishy stump
A troll, a gnome, a stick, a chump
How else to describe my cousin Bump?
You see, he also is a bit of a chump...

Calamares, Chocos
The Spanish with whom I sup
asked me, so I did:
“eat sea beasties – look it up!”
Chocos, yes, there are,
and there’s calamar:
los del mar?
Squid.

Shyful Squid
did you hear about the shyful squid
who always tried hard to stay well hid
it seems he was always found out
for his tentacles flailed about
never managed to stay off the grid...

Premium Member The Squid Man
The icky sticky squid-man
Squeezed from the water spout
Leapt up my nose and
Sucked my brains right out.

Dug deep inside me
with all his slimy legs
Inside my skull hole
He laid a thousand eggs....

from depths far away from light
fishermen catch them.

There’s a version that comes in an ointment,
but go sparingly on the anointment!
The calamari squid
set you back a few quid.
Ooh, those tentacles - no disappointment!

Premium Member Rams' Horns and Squids
   Rams have two horns 
     on top of their head

   the better to butt you
     and leave you for dead

   which is why you should never
     cross a ram ever

   unless you’re a giant squid
     or a large bull from Madrid

Premium Member Come to me Krill
Come to me krill, humpback whale calls
She feeds on a ton of them each day
Bottle nose comes up through the squalls
Hunting squid and small fish along the way
They are not in competition when they lunch
Both eating their way through ocean with a crunch...

Prawn and Winkle Custard

Prawn and Winkle Custard
A delicacy and delight
Much nicer than Pilchard Jelly
Sounds disgusting and contrite
I’m partial to Bat wing stew
Though not to the taste of all
But as for Squid legs soup
Yuk, that makes my Stomach crawl...
