Hastic McPastic

Hastic McPastic is simply fantastic

His legs are blue and his ears are elastic.

He cartwheels when he walks which he does so enthusiastic,

His face is bright yellow and his body is plastic.

Tumbling all day may seem that bit drastic

But he loves it, they call him Gymnastic McPastic.

The House Upon the Far Away

The house upon the far away

It’s where the Sils of Soebuck stay

When holding their very secret meetings

They are welcomed with an array of secret greetings

A sailors salute with a pipe and a cap

It’s the first greeting before a very brief nap

They are awakened to the sound of a hoof on a letter

Then a musical welcome performed by a red setter

Next up is the hail from the hermit Jim Pope

Who can only be seen through a high-powered telescope

Pan left across the rivers and beyond the caves

A team of tame tigers offer a thousand waves

With the completings of the greetings

Next come the seatings

Then there’s the eating’s, the eating’s of meatings

But what is discussed at these secret meetings in the house upon the far away?

It’s a mystery. They roar and they shout and are boisterous from the mouth but no one can hear what they say.

What is the Colour of Dark?

What is the colour of dark? I thought

As the lights were switched off on the car.

Is it black? Is it navy? Or somewhere between?

A bit like the colour of tar.

Light is bright and it’s all sorts of white

It can even be yellow or blue.

But dark is quite strange

Without the same colour range

I might ask a fox I once knew.
