One Couple of Days

One couple of days in the midst of the night,
Two silent clocks began to sing bright.
A shadowy rooster flew up and swam,
Chased by a pancake who called him Sam.
Three wise fishes climbed up a tree,
While rubbery shoes had some hot tea.
If you think these wonders are simply untrue,
Ask the moon’s hat—it knows what to do.

CayCay Godwin October 16, 2025 at 7:23 AM How can really silly be from such lovely lines of imagery, how at the same time? (hey, I think I was both one night!) That's what you accomplished in my opinion, totally gorgeous ridiculous lines. Gotta be a winner. Jami Patterson October 23, 2025 at 11:20 PM Thank you, my niece and nephews inspired this poem, the way they like to talk about random things is always great and funny, I have a tendency to write some of them down.
