Up in snowy Poetland
the trains don’t run on time
because each station’s timetable
by order, has to rhyme
at ten past six each morning
the first express train runs
but doesn’t leave the platform
at least ’til half past one.
Up in snowy Poetland
for education’s sake
the local college campus
is built from angel cake
that a pastry chef from Paris, France
was architect for schools
is likely the main reason
all the students there are fools.
Up in snowy Poetland
a walrus is the mayor
his chief of staff’s a carpenter
(is there a reference there?)
and council meetings make no sense
in fact they often fail
with points of order hammered home
without the use of nails
tbc.
