Myself in Canterbury
A man there was far deep in thought
This land and others he was of not
What a wardrobe had he of cotton and “nylon”
To me they were rags he did but pile on
Religious he was, or tried to be
A man of his word that all could see
A poet man and philosopher too
He may be mad, but at least well-to-do
He traveled on foot, alongside the cook
For food he loved, and there was much he took
A senior in school, for work he did none
He was productive as our Prioress nun
A comical man, he enjoyed a good laugh
This is but a tid-bit, you don’t know the half
