John Sensele Poems

There was once Bob Nesta Marley
Who sang Reggae in the valley
To blood the ripoff man
Stealing bread from the can
...

There was once a freak mistake in a lake
Which worked hard to take a real break
From activities big and small
In the Fall, in the Pall Mall
...

Heads sometimes surrender their raison d'etre
Enamoured minds arrest reason
Amorous ties scatter sapience
Driven by love, folks lose their sense of reality.
...

Laughter unlimited loathes order
Abolish straitjackets
Implore anarchy
Sanction maximum freedom
...

There was once a fierce bull terrier
Who barked, yakked and bragged in his area
Where he walked tall
Shrieked and kicked a ball
...

There was once a prolific balladeer
Who wrote hit tunes for a brigadier
For whom he felt a soft spot
Due to morsels in a pot
...

There was once a long dead revenant
Who crept back to honour a covenant
Struck firmly with dry fate
Shunned by a sly date
...

There was once a garrulous mother
Who shirked duty and didn't bother
Nurturing her very own nest
In a ridiculous quest
...

There was once a rhino so pretty
She fled a game area and did piety
Acts in a funky town
To win a diamond crown
...

There was once a vulnerable housemaid
To whom circumstance denied a good grade
In English language
Or semaphore signage
...
