A poem by Clarence James Dennis

Woolloomooloo

________________________________________________
Title:     Woolloomooloo
Author: Clarence James Dennis [More Titles by Dennis]

Here's a ridiculous riddle for you:
How many o's are there in Woolloomooloo?
Two for the W, two for the m,
Four for the l's, and that's plenty for them.

 

* * *

I wonder what the Jacks have got to laugh and laugh about
I'm sure the worms don't see the joke when Jacky digs them out.

I wonder which is best: a rich plum-pudding stuffed with plums,
Or lemon ice, or plain boiled rice, or long-division sums.

* * *





[The end]
Clarence James Dennis's poem: Woolloomooloo
