There was a tall gent called Morgan
And his mouth was a mighty organ.
When he called for his dogs
Through the thickest of fogs
He sounded just like a gorgon!

Apologies, I know gorgon is female, but it is the only word I could find that rhymes with Morgan and organ! :wink:

Here's the start of another one:

There was a young man called Tony
Who went for a long ride on a pony.
'Go down to the side-shows by the river this afternoon. I'll meet you somewhere in disguise. Bet you won't know me!' wrote Fatty.

Nice one Eddie....although I hope you are not secretly marking these humble attempts! :wink:

He became incredibly moany.

That's the best I can do! :cry:

There was a young lady named Anne
She was very skilled with a frying-pan
"It's the ash! It's falling!" yelled Julian, almost startling Dick out of his wits...
"Listen to its terrible groans and creaks!" yelled Julian, almost beside himself with impatience.

There was a young lady named Anne
She was very skilled with a frying-pan
When she made a flan with flour and eggs,
Julian couldn't help but eat the dreggs,
Julian gave an exclamation and nudged George.
"See that? It's the black Bentley again. KMF 102!"

How long this would last was debatable!

And the start of another:

There was a young lad called Percy

And as he was an engine he'd get rather dirty,
