Timbuctu

W.B. Yeats and William Shakespease both died on the same day and went to heaven. St. Peter met them both at the pearly gates and said, "Lads, I'd love to let the two of you in today but we have had a very busy week and we only have one space left inside." The two looked at each other in disbelief and Peter continued, "We are going to have a poetry competition to see who gets in, but the poem has to contain the word timbuctu." No sooner had he finished when Shakespeare puts up the hand and says:

"As I was travelling across foreign sands
From afar I spied a spec of blue
As I approached I saw I caravan
Its destination was timbuctu"

Peter was clapping his hands and Shakespeare was almost in the gate when Yeats says, "Hold on I've got one."

"My dog Tim and I a hunting went
We spied three ladies in a tent
They were three and we were two
So I bucked one and Tim bucked two."
