A perfect example of being so simple;
Trump's brain is as big as a big pimple;
When he sputtered,
Disaster uttered,
And in his style enjoy putting a crimple.
We like to visit a pond nearby, a good place to be,
Egret, Heron along with the ducks and geese, to see.
One day we saw a smiling duck with dimples,
He looked so comfy, in the center of his ripples.
All around him, small bubbles rose,
It was apparent what went on, by a nose.
Farting to create ripples is known as fripples,
Best not look it up, you’ll get into a crimple.
Other ducks and animals riding the waves, who became disturbed,
On hearing of what the smiling duck did, were now perturbed.
Flying feathers all about, everyone was leaving the scene,
So much for our pond, that was once calm and serene.

Walking through eternal flames
the bright heat of them seem to,
wash away all the blame
to see you hurt
to see you cry
makes my heart
crimple and die
oh how i'm sorry for the pain
that i caused you for so long
please say you'll forgive me
and i admit that i was wrong
just all i ask of you baby
don't leave me here with just a maybe
tell me you still love me
tell me you'll still be there
for i promise and swear
your heart again
i'll never tear
