Premium MemberGentle Jim

Here lies little Bill – He took such a bad spill… It happened at his still, Making liquor was his thrill Here lies gentle Jim – His heart was never dim, He died after losing a limb – Drowned because he couldn’t swim Here lies smiling Ruth – Who always had a sweet tooth, She died – it is the gospel truth, From the extraction of a wisdom tooth


Premium MemberA Golden Girl

A Golden Girl, Ms. Betty White, one day shall meet
Your life measured in memories that were sweet
May you tap dance to the rhythm of the beat
As you were always amusingly funny on your feet

Betty White was the gentle Rose
Golden Girl’s funny lady of repose
She charmed us all on those shows
With kindness a poet might compose

He lies in peace beneath this tree

where death by shock came suddenly.

That thunderbolt struck Uncle Tom-

he faced the storm before the calm.

Here lies that cleverest of politicians, Dick Nixon
   Who was crafty and devious and full of tricks an'

   Why switch Dicks in the middle of a screw?
