Best Rhyme Sad Poems
In the BushesIn the bushes lurked a man
Keeping handy
Bits of candy
Luring children in the bushes
Where he hit them,
Scratched them, bit them.
If a man hides in the bushes
Don't go near him
If you hear him
In the bushes with a club
He will beat you,
Cook you, eat you.
This is...

Eeny, meeny, miny, moe
Catch a tiger by the toe
If he hollers let him go,
Eeny, meeny, miny, moe
My mother told me
To pick the very best one
And you are not it
Eeny, meeny, miny, moe
By day I have to put on...

Joe BiddyJoe Biddy-dee-doe
He didn't know
How careful he ought to be
Joe Biddy-dee-day
Went outside to play
And wandered too near the sea.
Along came a shark
And just for a lark
He ate Joe Biddy-dee-dee.

PollywogsTen tiny pollywogs
Happy as can be
Along came an alligator
Ate up three.
Seven skittish pollywogs
Beneath a lily pad
Up swam a rainbow trout
They all died sad....

Five Fat PorkersFive fat Porkers
Five fat Porkers, in a Pig Sty
Eating Swill and Cabbages,
Grunting with a me oh my.
One of these Pigs called Emily,
Was taken out one day,
Now delicious rashers of Bacon,
Three cheers and a hip hooray.
Four fat Porkers, in a Pig Sty
Eating Swill and Cabbages,
Grunting...

Julius Jaggery JonesJulius Jaggery Jones
Had an ache deep in his bones
Sang the blues for nickels and dollars
In mellowest of baritones.
Julius Jaggery Jones
Seated on street cobblestones
Paid his dues in groanings and hollers
Delivering back alley moans....

Hickory, Dickory, Dock Parady
Hickory, dickory, dock.
The mouse ran up the clock.
The clock struck nine,
It was past the deadline!
He missed an interview,
the job fell through.
He fell sadly to his knees,
no paycheck – no cheese....

The Mystery of Humpty DumptyTHE MYSTERY OF HUMPTY DUMPTY
Humpty Dumpty was indeed a spy
Whose favorite dish was egg custard pie
He couldn't resist even one little bite
And usually ate a whole pie every night
Yes, he loved egg custard but that ain't all
He loved to eat it while sitting on a...

PiggyOh, the piggy loves you
The piggy loves me
The piggy is homeless,
yessiree.
Give the pig a cookie
Give the pig a bed
Or maybe a sarcophagus,
in case the piggy's dead.
Punch'm in the snout
Poke'm in the eye
Take the piggy home
and dump'm in the sty...

Simplicity in Smiles: A Rhyme's DelightAs morning light unveils its grace,
A modest smile adorns each face.
No need for grandeur, just beguile,
A simple smile, a cherished style.
No eloquence in words to find,
Just a gentle grin, so unconfined.
It speaks of joy with whispers slight,
In the dialect of smiles, pure and bright.
A sunlit...

The end of my ropeYou tied the noose that I hang from
I stare at the writing on the wall
I feel like all the words are written wrong
My feet can’t find the stall
I wish my thoughts would just be gone
I am the rope in which they tie
I can’t seem to...

Call 988When they made Humpty Dumpty
He turned out to be grumpy
Because of his fragile state
He's not to make a mistake
A padded path, made for him
Full of cotton, thick not thin
He must go only this way
He wants the opposite way
But it's dangerous we say
Stubbornly he climbs the...
