Doris the Overindulged Duck
Doris is a duck who likes to overindulge whenever she can.
She overcompensates because she has no dog, cat or man.
Today I saw her eat three boxes of chocolates in an hour
Then she drank a bottle of wine, to give her happy power.
I have no advice to give, and I am glad that she does not

dowdy drab doris
Doris was dowdy, drab, and draggle-tailed too
Forever frumpy, frightened, a failure, at age thirty-two
Jaundiced, juicy-gossipy, jealous, and July jailed
Slovenly, slithery, shipwrecked, her moment had sailed.

Doris
Doris was quick-thinking
quick-acting, clever, and shrewd
But pointedly polite and polished
Never abrupt or rude
Her knowledge of psychology helped her get by with much
Fooling relatives, acquaintances, coworkers, and such
they were eagerly outsmarted and outmaneuvered by her.
She had an open heart, and a face that was open and pure.

Doris Ann Does Not See the Pink Frog
Doris Ann was busy catching hearts, dragonflies and bees.
The giant pink frog was waiting quietly, smiling with ease.
Wait until she sees me, the creature thought, she may think I’m a toad.
But Doris Ann ran past her, straight down Mercy Road.

Saving Doris
Doris was a beet who was well-loved
she was symmetrically and artistically beautiful.
the entire garden decided to hide her,
because they could not bear to see her eaten
carrots, radishes, green beans and peas took turns
camouflaging Doris, so the eaters would not notice her.
she thrived all summer long, getting bigger and bigger
by the time the farmers noticed her,

Ricky And Doris
A puppeteer and a columnist
Two greeting persons of great talent
A writer and a simple artist
Met in New York on a bench God-sent
Acquaintance that brought humor and scent
To watchers and walkers awed with skill
Moving and talking puppets that shrill

Rip Doris Bodgers
I just read the Kama Sutra Richard Johnson said,
It could leave you ruptured or very possibly dead:
But him and his lover Doris went ahead and tried.
Less than three weeks later she very suddenly died.
They’d been progressing
By slow and steady stages
Until Doris sadly, mistakenly,
Went and turned four pages.
What started off as easy
And looked so

Doris To Little Light Cloud
Doris was an unhappy girl; her stepfather was stern.
Her mother never stood up for her, no matter what.
She did not like herself when the Cherokees grabbed her.
But they showed her a new way and renamed her.
When they had finished with her she was a new person.
Little Light Cloud, a maiden who had fallen in love.
When

Doris, the Magic Troll

In the hills of Tazeltoff

Who would jeer and tease and scoff
It seemed that little Doris
Was a timid little thing
When trolls of young and old

Doris and Rock
my pillow has
become you
but you have
become my
pillow
soft but not
feathered down
shape shifting
to fit my girth
and width
spray some
of your
favorite
scent
and
then you send
me away but don't
push me away
befuddled
i only want
to
cuddle

Darling Doris Dollar- -
…Polyester jewels ravage her neck;
Her clothes are stylist and yet;
Money she has no remorse;
She’s gotten all she got, from being divorced;
Darling Doris Dollar;
Got more monies than any others;
It’s a shame the next man she gets;
Gonna have to sign a Prenup…

Tribute To Doris Day
TRIBUTE TO DORIS DAY
“Que séra séra,
whatever will be will be…”
sung to me sung to me
like a lullaby crescent moon
“when i was just
a little girl”
the softness of her voice
my mother’s
resounding on t.v.
remembering reminiscing
Doris Day
the girl next door
beyond the stars
young once more
