The Teapot Poet’s Society

Let’s call this meeting to order
The Teacup Poet’s Society
Weekly meeting is now in session

Mrs Symthe will now read her poem
“The Suffragette’s Lament”
She had read all about the movement
And decided it would be a good topic

Mrs Johnson-Sniffles enlightened the
Ladies in regards to her lost love
A pug named Daisy
She sniffled through the whole poem

Miss O’Huggins gave a stirring
Rendition of her latest poem
Something dreadfully Irish
We just had to include her of course

They all drank Jasmine tea
Floral cups for the occasion
Waiting with bated breath for
The guest speaker

A very eccentric person
From Finland of all places
A Doctor Lauri, an
Eminent expert on ancient Finnish poems

A very good afternoon was spent by
All especially Mrs Johnson-Sniffles
And her Ode to Daisy
Which of course was well received

Come again to The Teapot Poet’s Society
We meet every Tuesday afternoon
Jasmine tea and crumpets anyone?

    ‘The Teapot Poet’s Society’ is a very enjoyable read…true good-natured humour within it’s lines…this poem is a fun rendition of the comical stuffiness of a society a world away from the reality of where we are…it is a pleasing journey to the lighter side of human nature…a very fun poem to read again and again…well done Ceol.
