Tram Ride

The sign promised
A low sugar tram ride
But to be really honest
It was just an ad on the side

Anyway, since you got in it
Enjoy the narrow and wide
City of mine

Top of the World

“Standing tall
On top of the world
Let my voice be heard
At least, until I fall”

“Ok,
So maybe not the world
Just a tiny country
Or a smaller city
Somewhat nitty-gritty
But anyways,
I am the queen
Hear me roar?”

“Yeah, right!”

Shopping

“Shop,
Until you drop!
Or until you kidney stone will pop
There is no stop”

Or at least until
Your money runs out!

Picture Perfect

Nothing more
Nothing less
It, just is

Orange

What rhymes with orange?
Maybe try some porridge?
Possibly and then some!
To the market place
You should come!

Opening Hours

Down in the harbour
It’s that time of the year
When summer is here
Then we put on some Brahms
And we all start to dance
Everyone, even the barber

Bring your daughters and sons”

Flowers of all Ages

Flowers, of all ages
Let them, out of their cages
And into the streets
They will be racing
But, there will be no chasing
To be honest,
I think we are much too lazy
So just sit back
And be content in praising

Flight

The seagull of the hood
Keeping guard over her domain
This may be the concrete wood
But the order must be sustained
If you get too close
Soon enough you will get a doze
On your head or shoulder
It will be quite a boulder
Of the bird’s arsenal
(Not going to the particulars)
So head this warning:
When the seagulls are swarming
Keep you distance
And you may survive the instance!

Amanda

The pretty little lady
Carved out of bronze
Curvy and naked
As cool as the Fonze
Despite over eighty
She’s none too shady
