The Wisest Fool

A silly verse, I must be tired

The wisest fool that ever lived

could not be found

bungy jumping from a bridge,

not in the stockmarket

as the numbers tumbled,

no he was at home

eating Blackberry Crumble.

Oh the taste of that delight

drizzeled with cream

no one in sight,

oh the skill that mixed the crumble

baked on top

of Blackberries galore

till golden brown

give me some more.

My secret is out

you call me a fool

well I am the wisest of them all,

the dish is empty

the cream is gone,

oh well

till the next time

farewell.
