Madeleine King

\nA beachwear designer named Madeleine King
\nMade all her bikinis from very thin string;
\nThree scraps of bright fabric, like undersized stamps,
\nThat weren’t quite opaque to the dimmest of lamps.<\/p>\n
Three cheers for Madeleine King!<\/p>\n
Her sister Ophelia was tall, slim and blonde,
\nYet boasted the curves of which most men are fond;
\nShe modelled the swimsuits without any qualms
\nAnd smiled at the crowds sat admiring her charms.<\/p>\n
Three cheers for Madeleine King<\/p>\n
The papers sent cameras to all of their shows,
\nBold beauties catch readers as everyone knows.
\nWith “Phew What a Scorcher”, the headline above
\nTheir pictures had many men falling in love.<\/p>\n
Three cheers for Madeleine King<\/p>\n
The magazine editors rained down their praise,
\nThe in-crowd sent orders for suits to “catch rays”,
\nThough sometimes a husband would baulk at the price
\nOnce these suits were modelled they didn’t moan twice!<\/p>\n
Three cheers for Madeleine King!<\/p>\n
In Copacabana eyes popped out on stalks
\nAnd jaws hit the floor when the girls went on walks!
\nIn Madeleine’s finest no tanning is missed,
\nThe only white line is around her left wrist.<\/p>\n
Three cheers for Madeleine King!<\/p>\n
At last it’s the winter, not the time for the beach
\nAnd tanned and uncovered seems far out of reach,
\nOphelia and Madeleine bathe in their cash,
\nHow can things so small have raised so large a splash?<\/p>\n
Three cheers for Madeleine King<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
