Best Milk Shake Poems
A Magic Adventure of Peter The Pan/AKA Peta The Fwying Pan
Peter was a fine young pan with blue eyes
Like all the other pans his age, except,
Peter could not yet pronounce 'R's'--he tried...
And 'L's'...so hard he tried. He even wept.
School had been especially hard today
Peter had been poked, teased, and made fun of
More this day than any other school day...
And the ride home took so long on the bus.
When he came through the door, his mama knew
"Why the long face? Are you hurt? Are you sick?"
"No ma'am," said Peter, "Just tiwad fwom schoow".
"Some cookies and milk may just be the trick!"
Mama said, as Peter sat down to eat.
By now, everyone was gathered around
To hear of his day--and sneak a treat.
So he told them his story...and they frowned.
"How can someone be so cruel! Makes no sense!
You are the smartest and brightest of pans!"
Said Debbie Dishwasher-- then cycle rinsed.
The rest agreed and came up with a plan.
"Okay! It's agreed!" said Bob the blender.
"You need magic!--THAT--we can render!
Charles Chalice and Gail Goblet--my dear
Bring what you have, for this magic milk shake.
Michael Magic Grill...you go get us some beer
And also get Peter a great big steak!"
Then everyone sang together with cheer:
"A parr-ty! A parr-ty! It's a parr-ty!
We are all...having...a magic--parr-ty!"
Everyone was busy, hust'ling around.
Tams the Golden Toaster was making toast.
Tex Texas Tea Pot hummed a whist'ling sound.
David Dish and Sara Spoon danced the most,
Except for Marlon Mop--he could 'get down'!
Carol Crock Pot was fixing up the Soup.
Russell Rolling Pin had rolled out a crust
For a magic pie with love from the coop.
Joann Juicer made fresh smoothies--a must!
Suddenly...a sound was heard on the stoop...
"Who could that be? It's nearly midnight!"
Said Cyndi Chandlier all bright with light.
Christopher Cutting-board called, "I'll go see!"
Vienna Vaccume said, "Not without me!"
"Wait!" Debbie Dishwasher cried from the sink.
"Let's look at more options. We need to think.
It could be someone in need of a meal...
Or, it's a burglar--come here to steal!"
"Everyone else! Quickly! Hide inside me
Until we find out who that sound might be!"

My nutty week stays long in my memory
My brain didn't process like it would normally
But just to be sure I now lay of the pink gin
I will share you my tale and shall now begin.
Paracetamol had been placed inside the freezer
Then found in the bread bin, the daily newspaper
My mouthwash was used as a face cleanser
Then sprayed underarms with the air freshener.
When cooking dinner I put no water in pans
Smoke and burnt offerings, so opened a soup can
Two hours of slow sewing, repairing some things
Only to discover I'd missed both sides of the seams.
Made tea instead of coffee, an easy mistake
But my feather head told me it's chocolate milk shake
Lucky that time the tea had cooled down
But annoyed with myself and felt a right clown.
Was I losing my marbles? why all the muddles?
That week I seemed in a right fuddy duddle
But the last straw came when I went to bed
I had slept on the floor of the garden shed.
The second stanza is true, I have done all that
The rest is made up for bit of spoof slap
But wanted a poem for the nutty contest
This I made up from my nutty mind set.

The Chocolate!
She is a deliciously smart gal,
For each and everyone's her pal.
Be it in the brownie or cake,
Or the icy cold milk shake.
She sure can change everyone's morale!

Limerick
They promise it is personal
No –one knows your weight
You step trembling on the scales
To hear the awful fate
You’ve put a kilo on she says
With a bell on every tooth
Been a naughty girl have we
We had better take a look
You sit around her on your chair
Waiting for the truth to emerge
You clap the clever ones who lost weight
For you it will be a dirge
Now then come on admit it
What have we had naughty this week
She goes through your eating list
Me I can hardly speak
Ahh here it is she says triumphantly
You dared to eat some duck
With orange sauce I do not doubt
Geez I thought just my luck
No I said it was the bananas
In milk shake everyday
Cos I had tonsillitis
I just about could say
Just like a child at christmas
I promised to be good
Losing some kilos next week
Just better forget about food.

Light Verse
A stretch of sheer light blue aqua lined with foam like whipped cream on a milk shake. Moves in an out as we rotate. At times the sun persists strong as if a huge candle to keep us warm. The tide acts as a guard keeps rolling in and out. Stay alert, beautiful but dangerous the riptide may take you under like the mermaids are below trying to pull you into their world. Feet dredging through the sand as if you are building something with your feet. Salty to the taste, nappy to the hair. Children playing with toys. Dogs feeling free, ears flapping, tails wagging, running back and forth into the water...I am sitting in my chair lazily watching all the commotion staring back at me.

STRESS DIET
I've found a stress free planned diet,
It sounds so good I shall try it
Chocolate is claimed for calming the mind,
Eaten daily less stress I should find.
Breakfast to be chocolate spread on bread
A chocolate milk shake to clear the head
Lunch-time I'll try to be chocolate free,
And will wait until afternoon tea.
Afternoon tea cannot come too soon,
No chocolate eaten lunch-time at noon
I've now withdrawal pains in my guts
I need some chocolate raisins and nuts
At night I'll have a healthy dinner,
steak and vegies will be a winner.
Then follow with a cheesecake dessert,
a chocolate one made by an expert.
This diet's had a calming effect
It's more than I could ever expect.
No sneaking around chocolate to find
I've found a cure for a stress free mind.
If you're in need to become stress free,
Follow this plan that worked for me.
Eat chocolate, never miss out a day
it's the best food; what more can I say.

I don’t know why some say chips are so bad
Tho we both know, not just one can be had!
And why do burgers have to put on pounds
With hot crispy French fries, by leaps and bounds?
And those sugary treats I so often crave
Why is it always so hard to be brave?
The experts first said fat was a no no
Then they said it’s OK, just take it slow.
Chocolate was banned, but they turned that around
A chocolate milk shake! I was heaven bound!
You should eat healthy, but once in a while
A little junk food can put on a smile!

THE YOLK'S ON ME
It was bath time for my twins, I played a little joke
and filled their bathtub with purple dinosaur yolk.
The bathtub discoloured, the yolk was scummy
but in the purple gloop I found a missing dummy
Into the tub I placed my little daughter
she shivered, so I poured in hot water;
alas the egg congealed, it was a huge mistake…
for their next bath time I’ll use chocolate milk shake!

Moo
It bounced down my street like a mad thing on heat
Or a kangaroo doing a trick
The farmer that blocked it was knocked off his feet
By his cow on an old pogo stick
So a cow on a pogo stick bounced down my street
The footrests weren't right for her hooves
So they're welded with superglue onto her feet
Which is okay so long as she moves
But you can’t stand still on a pogo stick
Cos if you do you will fall over
So she bounced on her stick and she went quite a lick
As the farmer pursued her to dover
She hopped on a ferry, they thought she was merry
As she did her mechanical ballet
She said she had nary so much as a sherry
And she promised to hop off at Calais
A shift of the rudder made the ship shudder
Our cow made a messy mistake
Thanks to that judder she jiggled an udder
And sprayed half the deck with milk shake
Her strange bouncy dance continued in France
Until the old farmer arrived
A touch of sedation and glue separation
Meant our bouncy bovine survived

"Silence is golden",a talking slogan,
In the stores of words all go maiden,
A reward in gold for words unspoken,
But no any awards for words spoken,
"Spoken words unable to come back",
Mixing the air like aqua in milk shake,
Words creeping like fearful snakes,
Kissing slowly the tongue that makes,
Poisonous words like poisonous snakes,
Poisonous words like poisonous snakes,
Hurting words in heart not bin,
Scars remain as a sign of sin,
Use of abuse in no peace,it seem,
Tasting leaves like trees of neem,
Using abuse,refusing right,
Hell stays in the users sight,
Silence all what the universal system,
Speaking people all breaking the system,
Silence is golden,not someone's saying,
A dumb's write up now loudly speaking!

Light Verse
He was a nice quiet gentle man
He had family friends wife and a daughter too
But Rayshard Brooks was also a black man
He was just waiting for a burger at Wendy's drive-through
He'd been for a drink and was tired that time of day
He fell asleep in his car
Wendy's called the police, there's a car in the driveway
They probably didn't need to go that far
The police came and woke Rayshard Brooks up from his dream
They made him walk the line, watch their finger move across his face
They talked to him for ages or so it seemed
They made him show he did not need a brace
He had passed a 20 minute sobriety test
But then they insisted on a breathalyzer too
He blew .108, and that set up the arrest
He would have been under if he had a burger and milk shake too
They went to handcuff him
Rayshard thought of George Floyd and his fate
And decided to resist, run and escape them
He was running away but it was all a bit too late
Although the cops had his name licence and car
And they could have picked him up later
Three shots were fired right at him, quite bizarre
With no warning shot for that matter
They shot him in the back twice
Lethal force was not warranted to defend
The charge should be murder with a price
Another murder most foul, so hard to apprehend
Another black man is shot dead
Laying in his blood where he bleed
After Rayshard Brooks had been killed
Protesters came to Wendy's from the up the hill
They set the place ablaze
In a fit of revenge and rage
Everyone has had enough of all of that stuff
And now is the time to get tough
Murder murder they cried
That black man did not need to die
Everyone is now marching in the streets
Nothing is going to stop these feet

Ballad
There once was a snowman, who made a mistake.
He took a sleigh ride, but forgot how to brake.
With a gasp of despair.
He was launched in the air.
He's now upside down, like a frozen milk shake.

Limerick
My thoughts of you are like warm tapioca pudding
My memories of you are like chocolate bars unwrapped
My feelings for you are like cherry pie even in the sky
My hopes for you are like rivers flowing here and there
My dreams of you are like two dozen books to be read
My desires of you are like a dozen movies at one theatre
My wanting You is like a thick milk shake which requires
but could break a spoon with out even a raccoon and
My wishes for you are like warm pumpkin pie right out
of the oven with a glass of warm milk
Watching for you here and there like a lost bear
I hope and hope to see you again somewhere even
regardless of any stain or rain hopefully with out gloom
So that we can bloom and maybe wonder why we never
met before

Epitaph
You've got the face of a pepperoni pizza and the body of a mason jar
You use your body as a storage unit for Hot Pockets, Doritos and fudge bars
Ben and Jerry's Chunky Monkey
You are the king or queen of the junk food junkies
Peanut butter toast with Hershey's Chocolate Syrup
But the chocolate milk shake always comes first
You get your breakfast directly from the king
Dessert is always the queen
Appetizers are pizza rolls
Followed by the doughnut holes
The doughnuts themselves you will have later
While in the parking garage elevator
For dinner, no surprise, it's Taco Bell
Still hungry? Well have three ice cream sandwiches with Magic Shell
At midnight, it's time for bed
A movie comes on, so you have a soda and chips instead
At 4am you want to get some rest
Not before your omelette with Egg Land's Best
Your grocery bill has become a car note
You curse the cost of food, with a mouth full of a Banana Boat
I don't know how you do it, as you strut through town
I wish I could freely and not worry about my pounds
Some say it's aggression, others say depression
Well something has made your appetite enter the fourth dimension
