Best Tomfoolery Poems

Oh let's do something crazy
Let's go moonbathing at night

to avoid contamination

air supply difficult to spare
when wing and prayer
soul saving amazing grace
frankly against scalpers, marauders,...

Tiptoe through the tulips 
Tumble across the grass
Teasing behind a tree
Try kiss a Bonny lass
Time out for a sandwich 
Taste homemade lemonade 
Those days will never fade
