Tasmain Orlando 

Tasmain Orlando was named after the city

In which she was conceived

Which was lucky for her

As her dear parents had originally booked

A two week break in Kissimmee

 

Haulover Beach

Antonia and Antonia

Arrived at Haulover Beach

On the first day of their vacation

They could not believe their eyes

As everybody was quite naked

Nothing in William Faulkner

Had prepared them for this

So they used their Faulkner books

To protect their modesty

As they swam in the sea

Which was a futile occupation

As the August light was very strong

 

Oranges in Florida

It is a well known fact

That Florida is famous

For its beautiful oranges

Which is unfortunate for me

As I prefer lemon limes and other fruits
