Excellent poem! This is more like the Mary Poppins of old from Disney. I like it. Very well done. You did pretty well with this Dick Van Dyke version. I have trouble memorizing his lines when he sings it, but you did great here in this poem. Great job!

A most creative rendition of chim-chim cheroo. I like it very much. I was singing along in my head. Well done on this. This takes a certain talent, I think. Too match words to someone else's tune. Great job!

One man's reality is another's nightmare...or dream. Clever to integrate the lyrics from Dick Van Dyke and give it all a half twist...
it's a wake up call to not take lyrics, or life, at face value.

Hey there, Doug. Hope you're doing well. This is a really cute take on the iconic song from "Mary Poppins." One of my favorite movies. ~Kerry

A very well-written poem about the fun element of Mary Poppins and the excitement of the rain that is coming. We need to have a little fun from time to time.

I was singing your words to Dick Van Dyke's song, all the way down the page. What a lovely light-hearted song it is too. Well done, Victor, it was a pleasure to read. :) Sandra xx

Mary Poppins was a fun movie and my children loved it. Most of the movies today children have no business watching. I enjoyed reading your poem. It was fun and flowed smoothly for an easy read.

Thank you, my dear. How are you? I often wonder. Mostly because you simply remain...a wonderful human being. Doug
Comment from Air Spirit
I love the musical and lyrical flow your poem has... it has a joyful and playful tone and sound to it... but then the lyrics begin to change and switch, and have a more serious and sinister note -- which make me begin to question my original impression of your poem.... I must admit, I am not clear at all, on what the meaning of the poem is... or what the message is you want to convey... but I love the words, the way you play with them lightheartedly at first... then, they begin to change in the essence of their usage... i.e., " from "...I dance not when called I dance when I do A pot A cauldron And merriment too..." to "...Takes infirmity
my hand
my... indomitable ignorance ..." Again, I love the playful and clever use of language, but just am unable to follow or ascertain the message or intent... but regardless, it is an enjoyable and clever poem... with a definitive style and grace all of its own...

Thank you. Don't play too much on the intellectual side. yes, it is there, but becomes much clearer with no frontal lobe. I am serious. My poetry style was described to me. I did not know what or how I wrote, simply did it. It is called "Gestalt" poetry. Meaning-all lies below the surface. Just let it "hit" you, do not analyze. there, better?
