On Limericks and Stuff Like That

there once were some poets from Stroud
who did great stuff but not very loud
it may sound quite absurd
for the punters preferred
that like children or Steps
they were seen but not heard
but my god how they did the game proud

the invention of megaphones boosted their task
with hooters and rattles to hush
now when they perform
the atmospheres warm…
and their web-site’s seen many
a new wordsmith born
but you can’t see the door for the rush

un-dampened like true fans they plied at their trade
til the great day when mikes came along
now every words vital
although we’re all Micheal
who cares if we sing the same song..
