(Dodgy Dave Tale) The Burnt Vicar <br /> Well if the truth be told <br />And I should be so bold <br />(to say.....) <br />I understand why Dodgy Dave <br />Was picked to be the Vicar <br /> <br />It seems they must have known <br />That preaching was his home <br />Don't put him to close to a fire <br />Like cooking would require <br />He would only get burnt quicker <br /> <br />There is now fact that stands as proof <br />As David made a little goof <br />He needed light to give 'The Word' <br />A sermon he wanted not to go unheard <br />But the tilly lamp began to flicker <br /> <br />He went to turn the lamp back on <br />To turn the darkness into dawn <br />Reached for the lamp that still was hot <br />And now he has some blister spots <br />(Please it must have hurt...no time to snicker) <br /> <br />So now we know why he was a chosen man <br />To keep him close and safe at hand <br />Don't let Dodgy Dave get close to a fire <br />Or burns are what he may acquire <br />Just let him preach the brimstone of evil life and liquor <br /> <br /> <br />27 May 2008 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />© 2008 (All rights reserved)<br /><br />JoJo Bean<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/dodgy-dave-tale-the-burnt-vicar/
