BEACH FIGHT

There was a fight down at the beach today

Much to my horror and surprise

A large crowd stood there watching it

I could not believe my eyes

 

I saw a man who had a stick

Proceed to beat his wife

Blow on blow and on her head

To an inch within her life

 

The frenzied crowd just screamed for more

With a loud and raucous din

I got there as the Police turned up

And one went steaming in

 

The Constable he showed no fear

Grabbed the man by the oesophagus

Then a big green crocodile turned up

And ran off with some sausages!

 

(High pitched voice)

"That's the way to do it.........."!

Martin. Glad you didn't get it straight away and thank you for your very kind words. I have been telling people about your observation about brass rubbing in York. Still giggling!

Anyone who can get oesophagus into a rhyme deserves eternal respect. Well done Daniel

I enjoyed this.
I'm just surprised the Health n'Safety jobsworths haven't taken action to remove
these seaside affronts to their cotton wool
ideas of a risk-free modern society!!

Hi Daniel
This grabbed me right away. I suddenly realised after the second verse what it was about. I love the lines 'grabbed the man by the oesophagus,then a big green crocodile turned up, and ran off with some sausages.'
Glad you liked the story about York.
Great stuff
Martin
