Dunedon't

Post by Stephen Whiteside » Sat Jun 23, 2018 4:45 pm

Looks like it all proved too much for me after all...


Dunedon’t

If they’re giving you the pip at Dunedoo,
You can saunter down the road to Dunedon’t.
If there’s just too much to doo at Dunedoo,
Be confident at Dunedon’t, there won’t.
Then, for a little thrill, walk further still,
Up and down the hill, to Dunewill.
But, if you’re bearing cup cakes for your aunt,
You’ll have to head out west to Dunecan’t.
Of course, if you’ve been scoffing prunes and bran,
You’ll have to make a bolt for dunecan!
