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.
