'Dr John sent me'


I think this is Dr John. (You never can tell, on-line!)

I missed a competition of his with this title! When my daughter, Rebecca, drew my attention to this oversight, I thought I'd better catch-up.


DR JOHN SENT ME!

Dr John sent me a letter,
An email to be quite precise.
I looked at the name on the letter
And I thought to myself 'This is nice!'
He said that he's not a harsh critic,
In fact he is kind, through and through.
But when he reads this bit of nonsense
I wonder what Doctor will do!
He can't rip up this poem entirely
For it isn't the rippable sort,
But I fancy he'll quickly delete it
And give an old-man type of snort!
'Silly doggeral, woman!' .....I'll hear him,
As though he were only next door,
Then he'll throw off his wig in a temper
And throw it right down on the floor!
Then his wife, who is, no doubt, long suffering,
Will lay a cool hand on his brow
And she'll say 'Darling! See! She's upset you!
I'll get you a whiskey right now!'
It's strange how I see the whole picture
As though I were actually there!
'Rinkly Rimes sent you a letter!'
Send one back then! And see if I care!

I wonder if Dr John ever says this:
