Fun or Serious? I Can't Decide?

 

I've got so many poems

Lined up, where to start?

Will I post a serious one?

Or let a fun depart?

 

Looking at your poems

I really can't decide

What you WOLers favour

Fun or serious side?

 

Most verse seems quite serious

Which loses me you see

I'm much more into Milligan

Humour territory

 

Now why do I get lost with

Your serious British stuff?

Perhaps 'cause I'm Australian

And Aussies are bit rough

 

OK, let me relax you

Forget your serious stuff

Here's a dash of Milligan

I'm off, I've had enuf

Yes Stephen, what will we do tomorrow?
What mood will I put us all in
A trip on the roller-coaster of living?
Wait and see cos my verse it's just fin ?

I think you have outspiked Spike Milligan - I just love this - more of the same would be very good.
The photo is spot on.
