LADY GODIVA

Miss Lady Godiva had lovely long hair,
That dusted the ground when she sat in a chair!

But she is most famous, and well known, of course;
For a legendary ride on her galloping horse!

She rode with stature, good posture and grace,
And without a lot more than a smile on her face!

She pranced her fine pony through villages near,
And impressed all the townsfolk with features so clear!

Then she stopped in to visit a doctor she knew,
‘Cause I have been told, she came down with the flu!

The morale of the story?  Dress warm and be cool!
Don’t entertain mischief, as a general rule!

Should you ever consider a similar ride,
You might want to confirm, you have nothing to hide!

And Gamblers Anonymous will tell you, of course,
Never place all your assets, on any one horse!
