(limerick)A Stewardess Observed
To Vancouver from London we're planing
And the safety procedures explaining
But the mike it cut out
Making stewardess pout
And it died twice again through remaining.
So I drew me a drawing of her
In the nature of caricature
Showing what she is thinking
Eyes quite rapidly blinking
Although signs of distress she'd demur
.
'If it happens again (it would seem)
Then I think I shall bloody well scream! '...
(Those were words that she thought
Just about on the spot)
It was dropped on her seat. (sneak supreme.)
Then the lass gave a gasp of surprise
Looking everyone over. (those eyes)
A good poker face needed
Well we may have succeeded.
And so that then was that, I surmise.
'You're the one wot has done it! ' she cried
(I'd been carelessly doodling aside.)
She had come from behind
To see what she would find.
On a plane there is no place to hide.
SoI then had to sign the poor scrawl
She declared it was luvly withal.
Now my wife thought 'twas funny.
ButI said to her, 'Honey,
My poor autograph's sought after all.'
