My Good Friend Ruth, comic poem 164

 I have a friend, whose name is Ruth

The kind who always tells the truth

If you promise, please deliver

She'll recall and tell for ever


She won't lie, she'll tell passers-by

If you're the crying sort, you'll cry

I haven't seen her, for so long

I wonder: What did I do wrong?


I'll phone her up, give her a shout

Ask what her exit's all about

She's pleased to speak, seems glad to hear

"I've only got a minute, dear!


I'm tired of speaking, and room booking

Left Toastmasters, back to cooking 



Here's a reminder, tell the truth

At cooking classes, run by Ruth.
