my p came to my aid
4 clubs was her bid
4 diamonds was mine
she stole my heart with a 4
I rose to the occasion with a memory equation
1 club 1 heart from my p = 7NT from me
dam to quick
when there is a hulabaloo
please let me undo
before my p lynches me

Unfortunately, Fred isn't small and green. I don't see much we can do about his height. It might be possible to dye him, though...

Something which he absolutely refuses to have in his armoury
"Why waste a good bid?"
Asking is all that he did
"Please use 2♦ for anything else and humour me!"

We're all here, we know its name.
From 7 clubs to 1 spade
All the contracts he made
But his partner he would blame.

Whose newest goal was to be a Life Master
So he went to the Club
But was proven a dub
Now pretty lasses are all that he's after

Playing bridge turned out to be his life’s call
