Leaping Frogs In Calaveras CountyThe thought of "dwarf tossing" I abhor
But a leaping frog will make me roar
In Calaveras County
They leap to collect bounty
Hillbillies watch as moonshine they pour
To leap the farthest takes stamina
Mixed with a good dose of enema
Hoots...

Painted Horses Leaping
Painted horses leaping, faster and faster,
I hold on tightly as my tangled hair is flying.
A sweet carnival memory of a childhood summer.
Painted horses leaping!
The amusement park is twirling and whirling,
of this horse, I alone, am the master!
Father is holding me, to keep me from falling.
My...

A Leaping AcquaintanceA LEAPING ACQUAINTANCE
O ask me if a friend is mine for keeping
And I will scroll down her countenance in years
To show acquaintance that’s a target leaping
And I will tell you of the long nights’ weeping
Into the valley of the corrupted seers
That her acquaintance was a...

Leaping LeenaThey called her Leaping Leena,
She was famous through the land,
It started when she jumped a cattle dog,
Then a woolly lamb.
Next she jumped a wheelbarrow,
Then she jumped herself a car,
Her fame was spreading everywhere,
Through shearing shed and bar.
Next she jumped a wagon
Without a second thought,
Then she...

Leaping Gayly Outta BedIf there's anything more beautiful than tulips in spring
Here's yours truly experiencing morning's first zing
Leaping gayly outta bed
Looking forward to what's ahead
When my thousands of friends gather round for a fling
(actually I don't really leap anymore!!!)...

Leaping Into DeathLooking from the mountain top
i see the depth beneath gaping at me
strong wind gushing against my torso
I feel the force through my veins
Throwing me back to the land
But i stand rooted
As if I've been shackled to the edge
Same as i dwindle betwixt my...

Leaping LeprechaunLeaping through the clovers
on his merry way,
the leprechaun is happy,
on this St. Patrick's Day.
He tripped over a pebble
and landed on his face,
he lost his po' o' gold,
it spilled all o'er the place.
He got up off the ground...

Leaping SoftlyI can be
so pissed off
that I can scream
like a bra
put on backwards.
Evil exists, even
though politically correct
no-minds say otherwise.
I know it exists.
I feel it slithering
around me like
a sea shell broken
into fragments of
something remembered.
We seem to share
a ****ed up world
of underwear wearing
parrots
bleating like retards
at the channel...

LeapingThe juxtaposition of a jelly bean is a line out symbol which points not just north but in all outward direction. To consider an atomiser a friend is to put on a hat and scarves in very cold weather. Nevertheless it could be said that...

Leaping Beauty 2020Once in a quatrain she rhymes and leap
Brings a couple for my work and weep
Sings a duet and some extra sleep
Making my winter month grows a day more.
