 THE TRAVELING LIFELONG BUSH POET

WHEN KIDS WERE BAD 1940s ( 2 )




Away back when I was only seven years old
When it was I learned to keep my mouth shut
I had a teacher called Mrs Small at the time
And small she was simply anything back the but
My mother was a brilliant dress maker of all
And I had told Mrs Small of her being so
And Mrs Small she decided then to look into this
So off to see my mother did Mrs Small did go
She was my teacher and I adored her endlessly
But for a fitting I was told to go then away
But no I simply had to have a look see what was
Away back then upon this most exciting day
I looked through a sliding window that was there
And gosh much to my very real back then surprize
Mrs Small was undressed and trying on an outfit
And how I simply could not then close my eyes
I was so amazed at what I had seen that day
And had never seen Mrs Small ever look like this
But being just a little boy at the time back then
I was I supposed all filled up with total bliss
I don't know why and it still has me some what sigh
But I told a close friend of mine about this event
And he simply did not believe me at all at the time
So he asked Mrs Small and then to her I was sent
I got a months homework to began as with I remember
And Mrs Small then rang and told my so dear mum
That's when I learned to early to keep my mouth shut
And from then on I often pleaded very very dumb
I can still today feel that strap no doubting that
And what was even worse was the castor oil for sure
I got two big spoons full back then down my throat
Even since then my mouth was shut like a back bank door.
