Epitaph

I saw epitaph
Engrave says, "He died of love".
Pinch my heart to laugh.


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

Burnt At the Stake

Here you find a very strange dish of steak,
Of the cat who wanted to be burnt at the stake.

Premium MemberPoor Uncle Tom

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.

Premium MemberRip Nephyr E Nough

For Dad I struggled like a slave

Being clean-cut and tight-lipped

I hope he's happy with my grave

Cuz the grass is always clipped

Premium MemberHere Lies Brutha N Lauh

His dear wife Daisy, wheelchair-bound

Had a sis who thought him lazy

Perhaps she's glad he's in the ground

For now he's pushing Daisy

~ Philip McKillip ~
Died at 99 of a broken hip,
doing a cartwheel flip;
landing was more of a slip.

My wife deplored her duty

But O' was she good-looking

She sold me on her beauty

But killed me with her cooking
