Pigale, one of his better known ones (God help us!) Is "The Silvery Tay"
You should be able to find it.

Don't ! I won't be able to stop laughing !

Laughing?
The man should have been shot!

If you cannot find it or any other of his "gems", Pigale, I could maybe post one.
My great concern would be that you may have nightmares?

Enjoy the "cauchemar" pigale ;)

Dear God, that's awful.
I think the one "Silvery Tay" is even worse than the bridge one.
How is it possible to have Mozart and McGonagall on the same thread?
Surely an affront to Nature!

Forgive me Wolfgang !

Rusty, one thing you must know is that it is difficult for me to assess the quality of English poems - I am love French 'classical' poetry, when everything rhymes and when there is a 'song' about the poem.

It is another hurdle when learning a foreign language, the first one, to my mind, being understanding and acquiring the sense of humour. I now have no problem with this but it took me a little while before I got to the point of liking very much Billy Connely!

Thank you Jazzy !!!!

I don't think I shall have 'cauchemar' for even I found it so awful that it made me laugh !

Pigale, Connolly is an acquired taste.
I would not pay to see him.
I understand it must be difficult understanding poetry in another language.
I assure you though, McGonagall wrote drivel, as Queen Victoria well knew!
And the poet Edmund Spenser must be the worst speller I ever came across.
