Timbuktu


There is the story of two poets who died and went to heaven. At the Pearly Gates they meet St. Peter who states that unfortunately heaven was quite full and there was room for only one poet. He said that which ever of the poets came up with the best four verse poem could enter... then on second thought ... and because they were professional poets ... St. Peter said that they had to use the word 'Timbuktu' in their poem.

After some thought the first poet said he had one.

"I gaze upon the desert sands,
And dream of far off foreign lands,
A caravan comes into view,
Destination... Timbuktu"

Lovely says St. Peter.

But the second poet said he thought he had a better one.

"Tim and I a hunting went,
spied three maidens in a tent,
Since they were three and we were two,
I bucked one and Tim bucked two"

Which do you think got in?
