A Mayday Poem for your amusement.
Mayday - Derived from the French term m’aider (help me)


Mayday Mayday Mayday

I’ve run out of French Djion

Pardon me masseur

Would you have any grey poupon

 

Mayday Mayday Mayday

My ship is sinking fast

I need that mustard quickly

For this sandwich is my last

 

Mayday Mayday Mayday

The water’s at my knees

Don’t like my bread too soggy

Can you expedite this please

 

Mayday Mayday Mayday

The waves are at my waist

If you don’t deliver soon

Salt is all I’ll taste

 

Mayday Mayday Mayday

The waves are at my neck

If you do not hurry

You’ll never spot the deck

 

Mayday Mayday Mayday

My ship is now a sub

Never mind the mustard

Glub glub glub glub glub

Okay, to solve this lack of mustard problem, always keep a can of Coleman's dry mustard in your spice cabinet because, once mixed, it will not only add to the taste of...? whatever, taking a deep whiff, it'll also clear your sinuses.
