VALUES
(A Sick Joke)

As I was strolling along one day I heard a dreadful crash!

There was a roar, a scream of tyres and an almost blinding flash!

I looked behind and there was a SAAB that had gone into a tree!

I rushed to help, hoping, of course, that the driver would walk free.

Well, he crawled out, in an awful mess, and sank down on his knees

Crying 'No! No! Not my SAAB! Not my new car please!'

I was amazed at his attitude, for he'd done himself great harm.

'Get a grip!' I shouted. 'Don't you know you've lost an arm!'

He looked down, saw his missing arm and then he said 'Oh hell!

This really is my unlucky day! My Rolex has gone as well!'

NAMING BABY!
(For the Children)

While the Bunny Boys were out at play
A brand new Baby came to stay!
When they came home to Dad and Mother
There was a lovely Baby Brother!
Said Dad 'My boys, it's such a shame!
We just can't think of a baby name!
Mother likes Timothy but I
Am rather keen on the name of Guy.
There again, we thought of Tim
But that doesn't seem quite right for him.
There's Algernon, and Fred and Nick
But a name is much too hard to pick.
Then cried the Bunnies One, Two, Three,
'We can choose a name quite easily!
Don't you puzzle any more!
Let's call the baby Number Four!
