Two Small Ditties 1 & 2

Dittie 1

 Lot's wife said, "I'd like to relax, sir,

Alongside this dusty old track, sir."
But then she looked back,
And alack and alas,

Turned into a pillar of Saxa.

By Bob

Dittie 2

I tried to write myself a poem,
With all the letters, but no M,
The rhymes were weak,
The subject was bleak,
(it was an Edgar Allen Poe - M!!)
