The Old Town Cat Lady Who Yelled
There was a dame from Westminster,
Who lived her life as a spinster.
She was old and gray,
Yelled at cats all day,
And that is why no one missed her....

No Smoke No Fire
Westminster has historic walks
And tour guides do tour guide type talks
One speaker regales
It’s most epic fails
How sad about Mr Guy Fawkes...

Sinister Tightwad In Westminister
Sinister Tight Wad In Westminster
Someone sat that he became sinister,
When called tight wade in Westminster;
Where he did go,
Was called a weirdo;
In plate he had placed his pet hamster.

Covers My Hero
With an apple a day my cheeks are still flabby
Doesn't delay the inevitable, my bod still gets shabby
Belly covers my hero
Like wearing a pillow
Still, remember the building of Westminster Abbey...

Royal Impression
sunflowers stand watch
like Pretorian Guards near
Westminster Castle
Queen admires royal gardens
on her morning stroll-about

Third Millenium London
St Paul’s gazes out over the modernising City
Fearful of the vicious Shard
The Abbey and Houses of Parliament
Keep Westminster alive
But now under the gaze of a watchful Eye
The hustle of the restless Oxford Street
Is matched by the bustle of Soho
The British Museum still reigns supreme in Bloomsbury
Despite constant tourist invasion
On the river the Cutty Sark is rehabilitated
Tower Bridge still opens
The Boat Race can be seen every year and Cambridge can win...

Paying Respects
The casket’s draped in purple,
Which is what the crowd expects,
As they inch up in the queue at last
To pay their last respects.
They’ve waited there for hours
For a minute with the Queen,
To bow or curtsy or salute,
A touching, tender scene.
Each somber guard stands by
With no expression on his face
And silence fills Westminster Hall
For mourners to embrace.
Across the pond, we watch in awe,
For who knows if or when
We’ll ever see the likes
Of such a tribute come again....
