Dick's Stik
There once was a thin man named Dick
Who got paid for doing slapstick
Van Dyke was his name
And fame was his claim
He played on his wife dirty tricks!
Old Dick was called Rob so it goes
Mary was called Laura, you know
Mary did not bore
She got laughs galore
And this was my favorite show.
One night the two had a nightmare
Of aliens, walnuts, and scares
They dreamt of invasion
And four eyes gazing
And two eyes were under their hair!
Strange eggs filled with absorbatron
left for shoppers to munch upon
man lost his thumb
his humor dumb-dumb
they both woke scared witless anon.
The humor was quite a sensation
The two brought much jubilation
I’ll never forget
And never regret
That masterful comic creation.
* The Episode of the Dick Van Dyck Show
was called "It May Look Like Walnuts!"
and gave me my first belly whopper!
