  2. Poetry - An Advice

    Share Share Post
    Oh my what a fuss
    Pon my word 'tis shockin' O!
    No one would wed the pretty lass
    The hole was on her stockin' O!
    Take my advice and you'll have luck
    Don't think it is a bold one O!
    If you can't afford to buy the new
    Sit down and mend the old one O!
