I have a serious issue
to discuss with all of you
I hope you'll give me
a minute to inform you

there is a lot of leaking
happening at my abode
the cistern on the toilet
had another dripping episode
so did the outside tap
near the main road

for the last week or so
the leaking has got me down
and all I ever do
is wear an elongated frown

I called the plumber
to check my leaks
and he said he couldn't
do the job
for another six weeks

the wastage of water
has me well stressed
and I'd like the leaking
to be smartly addressed

there is a suspicious noise
emanating from the kitchen sink
you guessed it
it's another leak
now I've been pushed
well over the brink
