Best Crocodile Poems

The river dragon of crimson streams
Swiftly swimming to bring my end
As I’m standing alone at the silent shore
The beast from this murk suddenly ascends.
Gripping my face in her flawless jaws
The teeth latched efficiently into flesh
Pulling me quickly into the depths
Dragging me into the shallow grave.
Surrounded...

“Times have passed cheques (checks) are surpassed
We now have online banking. In my day

I always said that when I die,
I would love to return as a butterfly.
One with yellow, velvet dominions,
Fragile and lofty pinions.

I confused freedom of flight,
With a more placid folly of delight.
I fancied a short life of absurdity,
Rather than one of conformity.

Now I cherish longevity,
Grounded within...

Been writing Limericks in the last while
In my own inimitable quite naughty style

Her heart immune to the death knell

Tears spring from her eyes
Her acting days now serve her well.

Here’s the best thing you should know,
if ever to Australia you go.
Don’t ever wind up as a feast,
for this voracious reptilian beast.

 Oh ! because he had eaten lots of chocolates and cakes 
He was in distress

 At last a dentist was found his skin was White and face was round

No dear, not for your sympathies to earn,
Nor yet that your attention can I draw,
Just as helpless infants are apt to do,

Nor trigger love-bonds flowing well within, 
Should ye so wish, check...

Carol is a crocodile with big long pointy teeth,
She likes to hide in lakes under the surface, just beneath.
She doesn’t want to bite your legs or eat you in one chew,
She only wants to sneak up close behind you and shout “Boo!”...

We had a most horrid schoolteacher,
And us children did all hate her,
She’d shout at us for no real reason,
And threaten to see us later,
She had a dip on a Florida trip,
And was swallowed by an alligator,
But only crocodile tears were shed,
‘Cos we were all just...

Though crocodiles may steal their thunder
But all surfers know
It is time to go 
When kangaroos line up Down Under...
