Someone blowing wind
to make our craft unsteady?
do not loose our balance when
the winds of words get heavy
Many people on the shore
watch our tiny boat.
Too many beans
Make my plate unsteady
They aid my shipmates
To be ready
Ill comes the wind
That blows the sails steady
mystery lies
behind the eyes
of sailors we don't know
Run to starboard you say
Port I think
But either way we are still going to sink
You should read the ballad of the good ship venus
By god you should have seen us.
The first mates name was Carter
He was a serious farter
When the wind would not blow
and the ship would not go
They sent for Carter the farter
to starter
The rest is far to rude for the delicate sensibilities of Pooochie :-)

Ply to Bali
Here we go
Set the sail and we shall go
Arrive in Kuta
And I hear you say
Is this the place to Pray
Or should we Stray
Change to Ubud
It’s like Night and Day
“The heart of Bali”
In the hay day
Eat a Sate
Washed down with a Latte
In a place which is a bit tatty
Got the Bali Belly
Maybe because it was a bit Ratty
Off to nap
Maybe watch some Telly
Wake up early
To treat my Belly
Hi All
I was hoping for some more poems from the rest of you :( Made and Bapak Jimbo made a good effort, maybe with a bit of plagiarism on Bapak Jimbo's side :wink: :lol:
Okay I will do the next.
Ni Luh
Bali Expat Forum Boys
Here we have among the best
Sorted out from the rest
We always put each other to the test
First to Tommy
Call him Balinese
And he will be at ease
There is Made Marko
Just out of “Midnight Express”
This person you cannot depress
Oh I love Dr Bruce
This man has everything but a moose
Jimbo is in limbo
Alone in the desert
With only his camel to share his Tamal
Sanurian lives in the Dark Side
He always says "Should I just hide?"
But always comes back to protect his pride
We have a German
And he is not called Herman
Organisation is his forte
But he is lost among the sortie
And finally there is Roy
With his private Island as a Toy
For all to enjoy
But don’t forget Bert
The man that is always Alert
To call someone a berk
Plagerism.
No way, the ballad of the good ship venus is as well know as that of eskimo nell. I certainly would not try to pass it off as my own musings it just seemed to fit in well with the farting theme that was going on.
I am much more into Japanese hakka's as poetry rather than limericks.
I am
why?
because I exist
how?
Lonely.
Regards Jimbo
Ok its not really. I was just trying to show how clever I am :-)
