20,000 BeesA cart selling hot dogs and such
Was suddenly sharp to the touch
Because thousands of bees,
Eschewing Chinese,
Thought a frank they would like very much.
They swarmed to the top of the stand
So a cop, likely one in command,
Ordered all off the street
So the bees could retreat
But that’s...

Limerick
Rainbows and RosesSometimes a person supposes,
When asked to describe how things are,
That talking of rainbows and roses
Will hide what might startle or jar.
By painting a picture so sunny,
Believing you’ll fool those who asked,
What happens, I’d bet even money,
Is that some will know truth has been masked.
For lies...

To Sir With DeathUndoubtedly, my appearance comes as no surprise
I know, beyond question, beyond a shadow of a doubt
I am a vagabond, a place to place traveler, a wanderer
I had a job- I quit
I had a home- sold it
I had money- donated it...to...

Verse
Not Only Will I Touch the Hem of Your GarmentI’m flabbergasted at how the streets are thronged
Could You be the one for whom twelve years I’ve longed?
Oh say, a Physician like no other before seen?
Different from the kind to where I had been?
Could Your timing have been more impeccable?
And Your approach be more unbelievable?
But...

Narrative
The Bodyguard Who Outsmarted the Queen-Once Upon a TimeLocked in the largest room of the palace,
you live days in dire existence,
sunshine caresses you with sun rays,
breeze makes you breathe life;
anything at the swish of a wand is
given to you, lonely princess of Wales!
He has no loyal blood in him,
and as many children...

Words To the Wise From a Depression Era GrandmotherAlways look down –
You might find something - maybe even money
Never a borrower nor lender be-
You might not get something back that is dear to you
Or it could come back with dents
Always have a little side money in a bunghole
What’s a bunghole you ask...

Mucho SillinessHow can someone draw a blank
Now that's a real poser
How d'ya know if it's new and improved dog food
Eating that stuff's not kosher
Are there seeing eye humans for blind dogs
Sounds quite logical to me
If the Energizer Bunny attacks someone
Is it charged with battery
Is it true...

April FoolsToday’s the day that mayhem rules
For pranksters known as April fools.
Through jest and folly they’ll provoke
And hope that all can take a joke.
Shenanigans and gags are fun
But they won’t work on everyone.
A jester has to know his crowd
To gauge what mischief is allowed.
Some people laugh...

Broken HeartPsalm 147:3 God will heal the brokenhearted and bind up their wounds.

He is with us even more when our hearts and spirits are broken.

Poker Frustration
For jacks or better or two pairs, I just get even money.
When this is the best I get, it is no longer funny.
Each time I try to get a winning combination,
getting unwanted cards causes me some frustration.
What brings me ruin is often my own greed.
A...
