Author Notes: It is national poetry day here in the UK and today I wrote two poems, one at lunch break and the other on the train home. I hope you enjoy them. Here comes the first one which I wrote on the train home.
The Landlady And The Tenants Of Baker Street
Mrs Hudson was busy knitting some mittens
For her favourite tenants with whom she was smitten
When burglars dared enter her room and gave her a scare
Two Angels of Justice appeared out of thin air
*******
The famous duo dispatched the blackguards to their lair
With the help of Toby who followed their scent in the air.
Inspector Lestrade arrived on the scene
Receiving high praise for a case in which he never gave chase
But Wiggins put Ferret Face back in his place
******
Holmes and Watson wearily climbed the hallowed thirteen steps
Back to their lodgings so lovingly kept
By a grateful landlady who let it be known
That there was no place like Home
Without the presence of a Great Heart and Healer of Souls
Two famous sons she called her own
