The Northen Lass
Teacher stood Saying Marie converse in verse ?
Eh said I, This class is hell its the worse
I can't write or talk Petry and all that crap stuff
bugger this I thought I've had just about enough
I went to toilet then ran all way home that day
I hate bloody poetry, not doing it, no way?
Next day on detention I had to write a verse
I tried saying I was ill, I needed the school nurse
So I sat and thought out loud in anger for a bit
then I wrote miss a little poetical bit of s..t
I WONDERED LOOKING AT THE CLOUD
I WROTE A POEM MISS WAS PROUD
SHE THEN GOT OFF MY BACK AND SMILED
SEE YOU ARE A POET YOU STUPID CHILD
That was the poem she read, and said see yippee
Marie has made it she thought and wrote poetry
From that day on I was hook on verse and rhyme
laughter to tears I could make words just mine
eventually I got head girl top of my class
I started writing as our towns The Northern Lass
That was a long time ago a million poems on file
I love what I write, it's in my hand and my style
