Dino Poems

orange dino on the menu

This diner has orange dino on the menu every Tuesday night.
It’s a dish a lot like spaghetti, but here is why it is a popular dish.
An orange dinosaur often joins you and eats your dish bite by bite.
If he likes you, he can grant a favor, do a chore for you or grant a wish.

If I'D Seen the Hungry Dino, I'D Not Be Dead

If I'd Seen The Hungry Dino, I'd Not Be Dead

Stars spits light and belts, grows old and nobody cries
Universe slyly winks and eternity sees truth prevails
Earth vomits from Hell's pits and everybody dies
Justice opens eyes to say, life is crap-lost my scales
Unmeaning light its dying shadows scatter all about
The half-dead king rose from napping to see graveyard ghouls
In distance, queen was partying as fairies shout
Jack was drunk working with his imaginary tools
And the blind princess yelled, " Hells coming" with a shout"

Caveman said, I want very nice juicy dino steak
His wife laughed and said, "Then kill one would you please,
Last time you came home drunk, saying sorry my mistake"
He replied, " Hun, I was sure I'd get one with ease"!

Aint that the sorry truth ghost in the corner said.
"If I'd seen the hungry dino, I'd not be dead."

Robert J. Lindley, Sonnet

Joe Manchin, Dino

Call yourself obstructionist
Who blocks a popular bill
A Democrat, I think not,

From West Virginia still.
You, the arbiter of right?
Your constituents starving, 

Coal companies pay your dues
Pharmacies in your pocket,
Stock is the name of your game.

Publicity you're craving
Run for the presidency!
Observe just how far you get.

Dino Story - Nursery Rhyme

Three dinosaurs – big, and small, and medium
        Went to the park to play, with their mom.
        Mommy told them to follow the rules,
        No fuss, whatever fun game their plan is!
                   
                                                As usual, the medium one wasn’t happy,
                                                He had to wait for his turn – he was grumpy.
                                                The little one goes up and down the slide,
                                                The gentle eldest never fails to guide.

       Swing and slide, water and mud,
       Oh My! Little dinosaurs had all kinds of fun!
       Let’s go home now – mommy says,
       Tummy growling, yummy lunch waits.

Dino Dumbledee

Dumbledee Dinosaur had birds on his knees
His long, Long, LONG neck would often spout green peas
His eyes would twirl and his ears would spin
He tried to smile all the time but his mouth was too thin
He loved the waters of Twee lakes and Twee oceans
But tangled his giant Dino feet with too much commotion
He waddled and bobbled in such a funny sight
That all the Twees and Twums from Tweedledee Dum
Would run, Run, RUN it was such a FRIGHT!!!
They flew up in the air without any care
They Tweedledee Twumed on their wee Twee little bums
Till Dumbledee Dinosaur caught them midair - with such laughter
To save the day for Twee and live happily ever after!

Uh-Oh I Think a Dino-Saw-Us

OH, look out
I think she saw us
you know
that sneaky dinosaurus
LOOK OUT…
the one call Rex’ll
chase the little one with speckles
when a Brontosaurus sneezes
it’ll shake all of the ‘treezes” 
OH, beware the clever Raptor
you could be what he is after.
But teacher - I swear
this is all factual
my homework was eaten
by a Pterodactyl.

Dinosaurs

Miss Lily wishes happy holidays 
Little kiddos dancing to draw in the sunny days

Johnny, Tiny, Minnie, Stella, Jimmy in glee 
to colour the Dinos in their books
with glitter, rainbow, many crazy looks

Lazy Johnny dreams in pride
A jaunty and jolly Jobaria tail ride

Tiny creates colorful horns for Triceratops
In all hues and shades of her lollipop

Minnie paints some green sauce for cutie Minmi
Licking her chocolate she paints its armor all brown and light
Bursts into peels of laughter at the sight

Little Stella splashes yellow on Stegosaur back
Dreams of drawing all her friends on its bony plate frock

Little Jimmy dreams of going to school on a Velociraptor
Makes him the captain of his toy helicopter
A uniform and cap for his Dino pal he draws
Paints a tie and shoes for his cool paws

It’s a wonder world of dinos, colours and golden spots
For all these sprightly tiny tots

Mr Dino P Who

Mr. Dino P. Crocetti
Crooned and he drank
Can't vouch for his breath
  ~ But his songs never stank



Please note that Dino P. Crocetti 
was Dean Martin's real name

Dino

There once lived a gambler named Dino
who was terribly fond of vino.
Since he’d drink and play bad,
and lose all that he had,
he was loved at every casino.

But drunk as a skunk, that guy Dino
wreaked havoc one evening in Reno.
Now his vices he’s licked
after being drop-kicked
by a mafia guy named Gino.

Dino Dino

Dino, dino, why so glum?
Let the night your pain numb,
Don’t you know that sad’s no fun,
Let the moon be your pale sun,

Count each star, count with me,
No, no, no. There’s four, not three!
They glimmer with hope don’t you see?
You don’t? Okay okay, no biggie…

Look at the grass, what color is it?
Don’t look with your eyes, don’t you quit,
Just green you say? Look a little closer,
There’s green and blue and yellow and more!

The breeze is just the right,
The sky so beautiful this lovely night,
Slashes of yellow, swirls of blue,
With new eyes, everything has a new hue.

Is that a smile threatening to escape?
Nothing like a hug to get in shipshape,
Come here my dearest of friends,
Don’t you know that attitude is on what life depends?

Dino dino that’s much better!
Your hope in shackles you shouldn’t fetter,
What’s that you say? That’s it’s a beautiful night?
Dino dino, you’ve never been more right.

Is That a Dino I Saur

Two Dinosaurs stand face to face
But something is so out of place
A starry night in the sky
But it's a starfish I spy
Oh! that line of cocaine that I chased

The Dino Dance

There once was a dinosaur dance,
Which was great for lizard romance.
As T Rex stole the show,
When he jived to rock ‘n’ roll,
Marc Bolan didn’t stand a chance.

*Things I Miss*


I miss the soft touch of a woman's hands on my back
while we lay in bed just to relax.
The warmth of her body as we entwine
and the softness of her lips on mine. 
The hand in hand walks
and heart to heart talks 
that I see myself leaving behind. 
The playful fighting,  
and gentle biting,
these things are always on my mind. 
A person there at night to hold
on nights like this that are so cold.
I miss these things so often overlooked
as if I'm trying to live some story in a book. 
I'll hold onto these thoughts & feelings though, 
until I find them or its my time to go... 


"Sometimes its hard to see whats right in front of us, so I'll keep my eyes wide open & in
my heart I'll trust."
