If I thought for a minute that that actually was one of your poems, you might stand a chance!

If you take the third letter of each group of four and turn them around
Then use the next letter in the alphabet + 1 increasing for each word A sentence then becomes easily apparent.
I thought that all people who wear Knickers and therefore has women's logic would get this immediately.

I did start off with
A boy stood on the burning deck
Picking his nose like mad
He rolled them into cannon balls
and then flicked them at his dad

The first mates name was Hopper
By gads he had a whopper.
Twice round the deck
Twice round his neck
And up his...........

and then I thought No do something original

I think we should have a competition solely for Peter. One that only Peter can enter, to which everyone else is excluded. We should call it "The Peter, and nobody else allowed" competition. Also, he should be able to submit unlimited entries.

It would be interesting to see how he got on.

Beau is a funny sort of name
Entering the Legion to get away
And it worked, to Beau it was all a game
Until Doris came to stay

Peering around behind
Ego on the wane
Escape is on his mind
Petrified to meet her again.

When god had made the earth the sky
the flowers and the trees,
he then made all the animals the birds and bees
and when his work was finished
not one was quite the same.
He said "Ill walk this earth of mine
and give each one a name:,
and so he travelled land and sea
and everwhere he went;
a little creature followed him,
until strength was spent.
When all were named upon the earth,
and in the sky and sea,
the tiny creature said,
"Dear Lord there's not one left for me."
The father smiled and softly said,
Iv'e left you to the end,
Ive turned my own name back to front
 and call you DOG, my friend".

Now, that has got the tiny, but tell-tale signs of Peter's handiwork. Why am I still suspicious...?

He'd surely finish somewhere in the first three?

Are we talking possibility here or likelihood?

What if we let him judge it himself?

In that case he's got no chance.
