Missouri's Thomas Sterns Eliot
loved the English life quite a lot*
His style remained American
as a very poetical craftsman
There are thousands of words in the English language
Right now they're all knocking on my door
I hear them
But I can't bring myself to answer
A pub that's typically Welsh
Has music the English can't squelch
Hymns and arias rule
But, like any gene pool,
The loudest is always a belch!
One of the smallest,
most powerful words
in the English language
is “Yet”
the next is
“Will”.

Today it rained
But only for a while
And then the sun came out
Which if you live in a good climate
May seem quite confusing
But to the English is amusing
Two giraffes decided to see
what the English have for their tea.
They stuck in their necks,
and each of them checks,
then ruled it was too bourgeoisie.
They
kept
a lock
of his hair-
a devoted pair,
life-time in-laws,with love to share.
Note:Mother& Wife of Disraeli the English 19th century Prime Minister
There was a gentleman from England
Who boasted how his land was so grand
Big Ben, Scotland Yard
The Changing of the Guard
It's too bad all the food is so bland!
Sir Thomas Lawrence grew up in a pub
prolific paintings meant he never needed a sub
Favourite of the English ruling class
but a legendary repute never came to pass
The English language~ lovely.
To crush poetry to the size of a pea, balmy!

The English language slapped me down.
I stabbed it thrice in its flabby gut.
I threw it in a pond to drown.
I asked myself as I made each cut,
“Is this lexical abuse?”
Zapata flies
no grand illusion
channel disappears

The English science made a big discovery at last:-
A girl with very large and solid ears,
If wind is blowing straight towards her rear,
She get to school of her as twice as fast.
prim and proper
showing Amish upbringing
she has chosen to live among the English
we see her plain ways
when she turns her white bows on her lacy socks show
enlightening many of us
Addressing a student looking in the air
The teacher asked, "The English Channel is where?"
He said, "Well let's see..."
"I do watch TV,"
"But I haven't heard of that channel on there!"
if you decide to call your girl any word in the english language
use the best one
the b-word is the best
no wait, you get me wrong!!!!
its not what you think...
the word is beautiful

Tolerance and empathy between people of opposite stance
could take a lesson or two from the English countryside.
There single hedges fuse the best of holly, hawthorn and yew.
The English are civilized with their tea.
So let’s run over there. What do you say?
They invited you and probably me.
Lemon my favorite but yours Early Gray.
Terrific way to spend part of our day.
Arthur Rackham the English illustrator*
had drawing at his very core
A leading figure of he 'Golden Age'
of Fairy Tales drawn on a page

We know that the English are rightly vexed
Queen Mary we bought; London Bridge annexed
Big Ben's up for bidding
So's the Thames, we aren't kidding
Then London and Leeds and Stonehenge are next

Of all the words in the English language
"should'a" is the most useless one
And I know it's a sin
but I'm gonna give in
I'm gonna put some eyeglasses on my buns
and tell everybody what they should'a done
Great fun games for the English summer
They don’t have to be expensive
Play new swear word Scrabble
It’s a simple game not for the pensive
All words must be in common usage
And should be genuinely offensive

The English say black cats are good -
They think we bring them charming luck;
But in the States, black cats are bad,
So trans-Atlantic flights just suck!
for Deb's metre contest
I think this is iambic tetrameter
Cancer is the ugliest word in the English language
Trust me, no other word conjures up so much sufferage
Most results concur
But can be blurred
Surely cancer tops them all, it's brutally savage
"Stressed" is just “desserts” spelled backward
Do not fret, things will make a reverse traverse
Bet that's a new one on you
A new one on me too
The English language is filled with stuff reverse
