The Jogger

by Danny   Jun 5, 2025



Up in the morning, before crack of dawn.
Limbering up on, next doors front lawn.
All dressed in pink, like an out of date prawn.
Ye gods! He must be a jogger.

With headband and wristbands, to catch all the sweat.
This outfit he's wearing, for maybe a bet.
And it's pouring with rain, so he's looking quite wet.
Ye gods! He must be a jogger.

Designer brand trainers, attached to his feet.
Off for a sprint, to the end of the street.
Though I quite wonder, who he's trying to beat.
Ye gods! He must be a jogger.

Thirteen days later, he's still not back home.
Wife is a frantic, with police on the phone.
Last spotted jogging near somewhere called, Rome.
Ye gods! He must be a jogger.
