Best Shenanigans Poems

Pumpkin Patch Shenanigans


Puff white cotton candy, royal blue sky 

Autumns breathe over a breadth of meadow lie

Tillage field vines pumpkins that catch a bird’s-eye

Grandpa and black bird grand-kids are back in a flyby

Causing havoc with their big pumpkin patch shenanigans 

Fearless Scarecrow having an epic...

There was an old lawyer named Ruth
Who didn't mind bending the truth.
No scoundrel too bad,
If money he had.
He'd have pled self defense for Wilkes Booth.

For Carolyn's
lawyer limerick Tied for no. 1...

~Black Friday~

With the turkey out of the way
It's time to do some shop and save
Black Friday...here we go again

I am up at three o'clock
So I'll be at the door on the dot
Shopping like a mad whirlwind

Pulling up to Walmart
Grab myself a fresh shopping cart
For when...

A clatter in the backyard
quickly got my attention.
Curious to see what was happening
I rushed to look out my patio door
and saw a scurry of noisy squirrels.
I'd hung a new bird feeder,
tauntingly, just out of reach,
and they were not having any of it.
Amused by their hijinks...

only by a fluke did I manage 
   to worm winning trust 
   among Christmas elves and reindeer
confident this generic guy, 

   would never breach scandalous 
   tidbits, into a an underground impregnable

Sitting on a hill with the sun in our eyes,
Blinded by the light, but no one really minds.
Enveloped in music,
Caressed by the grass,
Dreaming of our futures,
Reminiscing in our past.

One kid saw a cloud shift into a dog,
As we lay out on our backs,
A pink sky...

here becomes there if one adds a T
and where when one adds a W
and zher, which is ‘here’ in Mandarin  
if one removes an E and adds a Z
which rhymes with V
though some pronounce it Zed
which rhymes with Ted
which brings us back to T...

Shenanigans

A friend’s best laughter!
Shenanigans and tricks
End monotony.

I don got nothing but terrible
reviews bruited about
dip pressing field day
me (Lothario wannabe) 
trumpeted execrable lout,
a garden variety baby

boomer father without doubt,
his own shameful paternal
shenanigans cavalierly he did flout
dwarfed teapot dome scandal,
thus one look no further,

or send out a scout
herewith infractions distilled,
though personally, I strongly...

After all these many carnivore years
You can call it guilt or you can call it fear
I've made up my mind to decide
I'm going vegan this November time

So I broke down hard and read some books
Heard some tapes on what it took
From veggies steamed to veggies...

Political Shenanigans
By Franklin Price

Political shenanigans
Will finger pointing ever end
Not until the one who's pointing
Has no reason to defend 

Whether verbally or visually
If finger pointing comes your way
It's either profit or distraction
That they hope will make their day

The candidates and media
Self-absorbed and ego pent
Whatever suits their...

How is it my fault that I took a leap of faith 
Like any naive girl in townships looking for good life
I mixed with wrong people who promised me soft life in Dubai 
Excitement journeyed my mind to things I can buy
Little did I know...

1 2 3 we go,
they said I've got some ego
so we went to Shiloh
to in porous prayer wallow
priest then took me to an hollow
he said I must purge my sorrow
and then forgiveness to borrow
that again I can be made whole

After all the shenanigans, he sat...
