There was a young lady called melsy
Whose hearing was giving her hellsy
She filled them with oil
She'd put on to boil
And now we don't all have to yellsy.

Here's another one for you posycal

There was a young lady called popsy
who woke up this morning all flopsy
She laid in her bed
just swinging the lead
as if she awaited autopsy.

These are very clever indeed! I'd lost track of the poetry writing exercises, but am glad that I peeked in to see what's happening.

There was a young woman named Janstar
Who, with her words, did emotionally scar
Those innocent folk
With her sarcastic joke
So watch out - 'cos I know where you are!!!

Sorry, popsy, can't accept that. You have 2 too many syllables in the second line

Here's one for my daughter:

There was a young girl called Katrina
Whose bedroom could not have been cleaner
She dusted and scrubbed
she polished and rubbed
As a cleaner, Katrina's a Zena.
