The Reverend Brimstone’s sermon, focused on ‘The Needy’,
He told his congregation, to give more and not be greedy,
Big Maggie Ann gave fifteen quid, and Jean… she added twenty,
Woodworm Willie tossed a pound and grouched that it was plenty.
Daft Uisdean wrote an I.O.U., and so did Wullie Spanners,
The doctor scribbled out a cheque with his usual bed-side manners.
It read, “Take two pound, twice a day, with sixteen fluid ounces...
And, call me in the morning, or as soon as my cheque bounces.”
By Hazy Dizzylady (The Highland Island Bard)
