Yo Momma

Yo! Momma! Remember me? I'm your sweet little loving son! I know I'm not cute like the other kids But my heart's as big as the sun Yo! Momma! Remember me? Could it be something I did? Why'd you go and sell me to the zoo? I've tried hard to be a good kid Yo! Momma! Remember me? Heard tell of a real nasty rumour It's because I'm quite a bit different Ever think I'm just a late bloomer? Yo! Momma! Remember me? Maybe one day I'll look like Brad Pitt When I lose all this excess body hair Your feelings of pride won't quit Yo! Momma! Remember me? Though I look a bit like an orangutan Please let your son come back home You'll be proud of your little man Yo! Momma! Remember me? I'm your sweet little loving son! I know I'm not cute like the other kids But my heart's as big as the sun © Jack Ellison 2013

I actually knew somewhat of the canadian healthcare system from an old Dave Chapelle joke. Is plastic surgery covered? Lol, just kidding, you're very clever Jack and I'm sure you could write any form you wanted. Thanks again for your comment on my poem. NOW TELL ME YOU CHECKED OUT THE CLERIHEWS, lol, the ones titled some clerihews to make jack laugh or scoff lol. That was my attempt at some humor. Great work and humor here for sure.

OHHHH... You can follow me home (with Cathie too)... every body else does... We have quite an menagerie here Hubby, kids, cats, dogs, birds... and some stubborn moles that I've been trying to sell a Florida vacation package to... Darn I'm loveable... They all have a story that just breaks my heart... Snicker... LOL... Except that dragon which won't stop pooping in my garden... Darn old thing... Who told him fertilizer is good for roses, any way?... LOL
