        The Welshman’s Villanelle
By
       Tony Thomas
       
The Welshman’s Villanelle

Don’t listen to the Welshman’s villanelle,
It could sap your fertilising powers,
Although we know it’s written very well.

Even Americans say they think it swell,
And suggests the fall of golden showers;
Don’t listen to the Welshman’s villanelle.

This poem short in length will cast its spell,
And bring about the fall of faulty towers,
Although we know it’s written very well.

Don’t invite the Welshman to your hotel,
Lest crying into his beer he glowers;
Don’t listen to the Welshman’s villanelle

All night he’ll rage and scream like Hell,
Giving ladies leeks instead of flowers,
Although we know it’s written very well.

With bulbous nose and rounded bum he’ll yell,
Until every one around him cowers,
Don’t listen to the Welshman’s villanelle,
Although we know it’s written very well.
