Good one, Brian. I think Tessa will like it.
And Rob, that made me laugh. A high standard has been set. Which leaves me to cogitate.
How about this then?
Chestnuts
A lemonade for Shorty,
Most amiable of tonkers,
Collision was his forte,
The conqueror of conkers.
His weapon cracked and warty,
A king among the stonkers,
Winner in every sortie,
Proud conqueror of conkers.
Say not that he was naughty,
Or truculent or bonkers,
Say rather he was sporty,
Brave conqueror of conkers.
An English juggernaut, he
Was quite unknown in Yonkers,
Rumbustious and rorty,
Great conqueror of conkers!
