Motion incessant
Never out of breath
As breath Itself
Is energy kinetic
Potential
Realised
Motion incessant
Never out of breath
As breath Itself
Is energy kinetic
Potential
Realised
For fish and chips
A seagull swoops
Battered cod
The seagull scoops
Battered seagull
Cod retrieved
Animal Welfare fine received.
Grandfather bought a bicycle
He aims to get fit
Got a yellow jersey and a puncture repair kit
Wobbled on to the open road
New Year resolved
Is protein fed
Has weight to shed
Fell off twice
Both knees bled
Got back on and peddled off
Dreaming of a tour stage win
On a cat 4 climb in the Pyrenees
The peloton starts to thin
His domestiques fade away
He’s on his own
In the final K
Allez allez allez allez
Prix de la combativité
His heart screams
His legs cry
His lungs destroyed
His cadence high
The paramedic’s
Seen it before
Ambition rich
Fitness poor
Can you tell dad jokes
If you are not a dad
Will the droll still roll
As the most obvious is aired
Can you tell dad jokes
If you are a mum
Or are you too busy at the kitchen sink
Close stood because your feet are smaller
I’d like to think about that
But I have a curtain pole to think about
I’ll think about the dad joke thing later
I can’t do two
At a time.
I’ll be your corn plaster
When tootsies need relief
I’ll be your prescription fungal cream
When piggies give you grief
I’ll un-ingrow your toenail
Be your insole mate
DQ your athletes’ foot
Learn podiatry for a date
I’ll be your toenail polish
Your pair of Jimmy Choos
Your wellies on a rainy day
A pair of blue shade shoes
I’ll even be your rugby boots
If I can tie the knot
A pair of winkle pickers
Or high healed sabot
I’ll be all this just for you
My love for you is such
But please don’t use the rugby boots
To kick me into touch
