I'm George Kirk. I teach children, eat cheesecake, play ukulele, love buttons, wear hats and sometimes a beard. But more importantly than all of that, I write poems, lots of big fat wobbly poems.
I can often be found skulking about my home town in East Lancashire, ready to spring on unsuspecting folk to read them stories and recite poetry, so if you're ever in the area WATCH OUT! Hang on a minute, the others are all doing this in rhyme aren't they? |

Clever clogs, oh clever clogs,
They always have to rhyme on blogs.
They think I can not do the same,
You know it drives me quite insane.
But I will have the last laugh see,
By writing here in poetry!
