Nice one Piglet! The only poem I can remember is by John Hegley:-
In Amsterdam..
I saw a tram.
At school we used to have to remember & recite quite long poems like 'The Lady Of Shalott/Shallot (she knew her onions!)' but I can't remember a single line now!Into every life a little rain must fall.Comment

On either side the river lie
Long fields of barley and of rye.....

...that clothe the wold and meet the sky
and through the field the road runs by
to many-towered Camelot.
Don't be impressed (I know, you werent!) - it's the only bit I know!Whoever plants a garden believes in the future.

My favourite poem - ahem *clears throat*
Spider, spider on the wall,
Ain't you got no sense at all?
Can't you see the wall's been plastered?
Now you're stuck, you silly b*****d!

Mary likes the winter time,
Little Lamb likes the summer,
but Mary's Mum makes sauce from mint...
For little lamb, life's a bummer!

One of my favourites is:-
Little Willie from his mirror licked the mercury clean off,
thinking in his childish error it would cure his whooping cough.
At the funeral, his mother, smartly said to Mrs Brown
'twas a chilly day for Willie when the mercury went down.

Thanks Alice and Flummery re the poem NO.
It was a poem regularly quoted to me by one of my old aunts whose birthday was in November.
I think it superbly sums up 'this time of year'.
