The Poem

The Antique Seller,
Was a very old feller,
Lurking in the back of his stall.
He couldn't be seen,
Thin as a bean,
And also not very tall.

He was Mr Mellor,
This very old feller,
Lurking in the back of his stall.
He'd sell you a pot,
That would cost you a lot,
He certainly has lots of gall.

How much is this old feller?
They as Mr Mellor,
Lurking in the back of his stall.
Fifty pounds, he said,
Faces went red,
That's expensive for an old ball.
