for MIDDLESBROUGH MAGIC SHIP 270 (D)

WARM WELCOME
I was to meet you
at your ice-cold-igloo
though it was warm inside.
There was a yeti
who'd dropped by for tea.
His snowgirl white as a bride.
All this I dreamed
after I had been
to tea at your place.
The girl had been pale
as a wintery tale
and the guy had a hairy-face.
Yes the girl had been pale
as a wintery tale
told by a whispering ghost.
Outside was a storm
but your room was warm,
you the perfect host.

BOUND-FOR-HOME-THE-MAN'S-FROG
I met a strange man
walking his frog
(or should that be hopping ?).
I asked "Where's the dog ?"
He replied "Dead and gone.
I've got this new pet.
He leaves no hairs
though he's slimy and wet.
I keep him in the bowl
from which my dog had fed.
The dog used to lead,
now the frog is led.
He's such a slow mover
to be very fair.
By leaps and bounds
we're sure getting there."

A TITBIT ?
Have you heard
Britain's smallest bird
is the wren ?
The long-tailed tit
would have been it
but tail's length
here disqualifies
the smallest size.

ABSINTHE ADVENTURE AFTER AFFECT !
Absinthe - the green fairy -
we drank that night,
and away, oh away,
we pair took flight
into a dragon of a dream
to awake fairy or dragon green !

A-BROOKLYN-BRIDGE-BURNING-BLONDE-YES
The 'Brooklyn Bonfire' was Clara Bow,
silver screen "It Girl", film's 'nympho'
for many men deemed in-the-know !
Unlike a silent movie show
everybody's mouth was on the go.
The 'Brooklyn Bonfire' burnt bridges,
always a little rough round the edges.

TIDAL-TRIDENT-TRIUMPH
There's been a revolution,
much of the media was wrong.
The people have spoken,
the battle is now won
by all the Brexiteers
despite many MPs wishes.
Britannia rules the waves,
has forked the EU fishes.
