Herculean Expectations
Scrub under the children, my dear
Wallpaper the ceiling, my cherub
Brush the lawn, my angel
Prune the carpet, my beloved
Clean the Aegean stables, my cherished

Arm deep in potato peel
He dreams of snug chair
Saturday sport
uninterrupted beer
And the death of lions
 
 

CREATIVE BURYING
One under the back stairs
                 One up the flue
                 One in the patio
                 One behind the loo
              Old Mister willow
                 Has his own by the stream
                 Now where can I put you
