Of Ursula—and her urghly uncle

9
Written by Catherin J Pascal Dunk

Ursula Upton,
urchin of urban Ulster—
unbroken, unapologetic, undersold,
ukelelist of undamped enthUsiasm—
was the underling of her Uncle Ulysses.

One ugly, ugly day,
uliginous Uncle Ulysses—
uncouth, unfair, ungrateful,
underbred and an unbeliever—
up and unbosomed Ursula—urgh!

Unbridling her umbrage, Ursula of Ulster—
undefeated, ululating—
usurped her uncle,
and, assUming all usufruct—
left him nought but ullage.

Come back for tomorrow’s V poem!

  3. Words I learned: usufruct = The legal right to use and derive profit or benefit from property that belongs to another person

    ullage = the empty space between the cork and the top of the wine (top word!)
