Hope tom doesn't mind the thing that I wrote,
After all I am a lexdysia dyslexic type of bloke.
UNCLE Meridian's poem, WALES IN MY ARMS

IN REVERENCE TO UNCLE MERIDIAN'S POEM

I'm not much of a drinker,
I'm more of a little stinker.
Then being a fortified drinker,
I wrote this is as an answer.

In reverence,
To uncle Meridian's poem.
At this time I didn't realise,
Where my mind would be going.

Arms around Wales,
Aren't they too big.
I couldn't even manage,
To cuddle their tails.

Although his poem I loved,
Wouldn't it be easier.
To put his arms around,
Someone he loves.

Oh dear, Someone's just said,
That's Wales not whales.
Mind you being dyslexic,
I do really love spinning A Tail.

If uncle Tom doesn't like my poem,
I won't class it as a defeat.
I'll just press a button that says delete,
It's not written down anywhere else,
Aren't I just sickly and really not sweet.
