Best Just For Fun Poems
Women wore corsets
Men trundled round
Magical mushrooms
grew out of the ground
Everyone terrified
Of the dragon breathing fire
The far fetched stories
The jolly town cryer
Always so happy
Nobody knows why
It was the magical mushrooms
Everyone was high
A woman walks into a coffee shop,
sits at the counter.
Right next to her is a gentleman
reading his newspaper.
His face buried in his daily
without looking
he reaches out
takes one finger
from her Kit Kat bar.
She can't believe what she just saw.
Clearly angry
she rustles the foil on her bar
as she herself takes a finger to eat.
A few seconds past
Once again the gentleman
takes another finger
of the now infamous chocolate bar.
Now the woman is furious
she grabs his Newspaper
out of his hands
throws it on the counter.
She then grabs
a piece of his doughnut
dunks it in his coffee
eats it and walks out.
The man is clearly in shock and confused
but says nothing.
He orders another donut and coffee
returns to reading his paper.
Meanwhile the woman heads to
and gets to her car.
She opens the car
Now you can see it all on her face
redder than a Kit Kat wrapper.
Sitting in plain view
on the passenger seat
quiet and unassuming
is her Kit Kat Chocolate bar.
Poor man
and he was so polite about it all.

This write is inspired from an idea
I recently had for a Kit Kat commercial.
You will never see it in a poetry book
but hopefully you enjoyed it.

Winning contests pleases folk;
Losing makes ‘em shrug.
Write a lot and go for broke;
Get that writing bug.
Try new forms and have a blast;
Enter, have a ball.
Nothing wrong with coming last;
Laugh about it all.

WISH COLLECTOR
To the collector of wishes
I wish you well
Perhaps you’ve lost mine
within your pail
To the collector of wishes
Please recheck
Perhaps its still there
Within its depths
To the collector of wishes
My hopes are slim
Perhaps some new stars
Are much too dim
To the collector of wishes
I’ll wish anew
Perhaps maybe this time
It won’t go askew
To the collector of wishes
I wish you well
Perhaps this new wish
Will find your pail

She invited me into her lavender bath
I'm a ships captain and feeling quite daft
Though I was feeling absurd
I took her at her word
You should see where I moored my craft
With three suitors she could take her pick
The stress and worry was making her sick
She only knew she must marry
Quickly she dumped Tom and Harry
She knew she could not live without Dick.
There was a young lady named Mary
Her huge butt was terribly scarey
She went on a new diet
But please don’t you try it
As its now pert but terribly hairy

Can't think of anything right now that will rhyme,
So i am just going to write for the heck of it.
Sorry for nothing interesting today,
I actually have nothing to say at all, sorry readers.

What do you say that we take a break
From all of our old routines,
What would it look like, how would it feel,
Do we even know what that means?
Of course, it wouldn’t mean I love you less
Or my old love is any less real.
Like say that I throw in a line in a poem
That never repeats ending rhyme
And let it just hang there, is it an error,
A flaw in the fabric of time?
What do you think folks?
What if rhyme pattern never repeats
Would that really bother our pleasure?
Or might it enhance it and give us more time
As we surf the waves of our leisure.
Perhaps we could bottle it, sell it to those
Who used to snort Coke for their breakfast
Or just add some oil, a new kind of sunscreen
That also kills bugs in a forest!
Although some thoughts are flawed,
Their logic doubtful, even carry an odor,
They still give us reason for laughter,
A savoir faire and still have some class
To carry them into hereafter.
For God must love trash
(But maybe bright colors beguile Him)
For it explains so much
About what has evolved on our planet,
Like Republicans, Democrats,
Strange (*****) Tea party Folk,
And lest we forget “Damn It Janet:”
Dinosaurs supremely courting disaster!
Though all of them are dead now,
New life forms record their footprints
In comical molds made of plaster,
But the mystery remains to this day
Of why some of these strange creatures
Have flat feet and some feet have ridges.

Poet's Note:
(1) A famous line from the cult classic movie "The Rocky Horror Show." Not to be missed!
just for fun
fun to make
make a castle
castles at stake
stakes are high
high waters rise
rise above this
this dark sky
sky turns blue
blue birds fly
fly me away
away this time
glad you forgave me
thanks so much for the wine--gee
it sure tastes funny
princess who smooched prince
morphed into a--ribbit--frog
magic gone awry
thanks for listening
just needing some good advice--
pastor, you still there?
birthday girl age three
waist deep in expensive gifts
plays with bags and bows
big bright birthday bash
gifts cake punch games raging blaze
ninety five candles
These may not meet the strictest standards for senryu!
May 28, 2018--not for a contest
There once was a leader of a gang
Whose doorbell I mistakenly rang
He pulled out a gun
Aimed at me just for fun
~ I'd never known how fast I could run
There's an old woman living in a shack
Seems she had a stink coming from a crack
Then COVID came and destroyed
Peoples' sense of smell and left a void
Now all her friends and family are back
About no one/picture depicts no one I know or hope no one recognizes if so, I will remove it.
