An art beyond many men!
It was best that he did bide
In the house with his bride.
His wish in the new field to stride
Made his popularity quickly slide!
Infinite was his arrogance and pride;
People made many remarks snide;
The more he tried to take a ride;
More he found himself tightly tied..
If one wishes to successfully glide,
One needs an experienced guide.
The statements made were pied;
But most of them were truly lied;
This was not what he had eyed;
To regularly get salted and fried;
A lesser man would have cried;
A lesser man would have died;
Was he waiting for luck in his side?
Was he waiting for the rise in the tide?
