Big and 4 Letter Words for Big and 4 Letter Occasions-  by Mathew Cohen

I went to Cambridge once

Wearing my new smart

Shoes

This involved a train from

London

And a London ticket

Office

The short story is

That they had over booked

The train and I must wait

My indignation and

The nerves of the smart-

Shoed day ahead

Force me to use a

Few of my favourite

Four-letter words.

The ticket man politely

Pointed that there was 

No need for such language

“ If this is not the occasion

for such words” I began

“ Then what the hell

is?!” I continued

and continued for a while,

“Such incompetence

deserves such language

you stupid T*@t” I continued

But only after

I had depleted my

Reserves,

Of appropriate and

Satisfying

Big and 4-letter words.

Big and 4 Letter Words for Big and 4 Letter Occasions- by Saskia Feltz

There are many big

And also four letter

Words I would love

To use to describe you

In a speech about you at

A very big and very public

Occasion. I would start by saying

I have written I rhyming poem

For this auspicious event

I would go on

Here before us stands

A man with quick wits

A fellow who have never been able to

Turn down a large pair of hands to help him

Get the job done.

An upstanding community pillar

With all the intentions and care of a saint

Who conducts all his affairs with a meticulous rigor  

And in all areas of the household and public places endows his rod with vigor

And outstretch arm and a mighty fist

That simultaneously fights infection and bestows the plague, you get the gist.

No full explanation can be given with 4 letter words but it would be the most exact and perfect way to describe such a perfect man.
