No way you could call this a drizzle
Came out like rhinoceros pizzle
On this day at the zoo
This old monkey just blew
It fried my eyes and made them sizzle
Blinded, direction was hard to gauge
And I fell into the lion's cage
I was sure she'd eat me
But she purred so sweetly
Now I live with a cat half my age
Had no trouble adjusting at all
Bet you wouldn't catch this at the mall
So just you wait and see
A proud papa I'll be
Because she's expecting in the Fall
funky lady with her mask in place
showing her fun side without half trying
I smile as she brings colors in
greens, reds, pinks, blues, she is a kaleidoscope
a genius with the superpower of cleansing
the air, and our confused feelings
we gravitate toward her, friends and foe
most want to see what she will do next
there is an aura that captivates us
capturing our imagination
taking us hostage, an immediate affinity
her mask remains in place, she is wisdom and truth

Jimmy is "smokin'" tonight
Look at that cat, lickety split
He's a telescopic sight
It's crazy, man. I dig it
This cat's been blastin' all night
Cool tunes, with horn yellin' shot
Blowin' it real hot
The band is "jammin,'' really cooking
I think Jimmy's "flippin''
Way he's zipping that stick ripping
Diggin' his "boogie woogie" jive
Layin' it down, gimme five
All the "jitterbugs" jumpin' to the heat
To the "funky" cat with that "groovy" beat
Blowin' his top, and waving his feet
Joint is jumping. I gotta scat
Man! It was-- Wild, man, wild, down pat!
He's a real bang-tail gone cat!
I’ll plant you now, dig you later with a greet
Man! ''I'm really "beat''
Let it get underneat listen to the beat get on your feet dance til your weak choose it that SWEET FUNKY MUSIC
She dined with a donkey,
And slept with a monkey;
Got up before dawn,
Gave birth to a son,
The matter was funky.
The Mad Doctor said it was official
a solo act with nothing artificial
a fine new creature
with added features
Frankenstein with bells and whistles
Opening night into the audience he jumped
when in his throat he got a huge lump
audience forgot
bic lighters a shock
running away through town like Forrest Gump
The Mad Doctor enrolled him in a class
to overcome his phobia at last
nothing worked
he just went berserk
the class barbecues too much of a flash
Back on stage there was no need to dash
bell and whistle tunes with a lot of class
bic lighter ban
in the stands
his classic hits making a lot of cash.

Hollywood Kool and everybody there
wants your autograph and their picture

She came out of the sea at twilight
Weak and trembling, bent with age
Her hair entwined with seaweed
The pounding surf a watery stage. .
She stood awhile and listened
then with the most frightful groan
Beaconed with a bony finger
To her minions in the foam..
Out of the waves they scrambled
Creatures from the dark and deep
Unleashed this one dark night
From their prison did they creep..
The danced the Funky Monkey
while the stars shown overhead
With abandon celebrated freedom
From their dark and watery bed...
So had the sun and stars aligned
Just this once in untold years
To break the spell they suffered
And dry their unending tears..
And with the light of faintest dawn
They turned from their heavenly shore
All crept back into the thrashing sea
And their likes were seen no more
I wrote this with my grandson several years ago..i thought it would be fun to bring it back again..
The lightening thunders,
The fierceful winds,
Blend together & sings…
When the hunk walks all his way,
With the stylish steps & he’s “CHINMAY”…
Always poses with his ‘Colgate’ smile,
Lifts his collar & says that’s his style… B-)
The roses’ eyes slowly leaks,
When seen his pinky cheeks… (With jealous )
He’s a 24×7 chatterbox,
No fullstop for his naughty talks..
People yell that he’s a big mischeif,
But his heart’s truely a tender leaf… :D
Funky Monkey
______________________________
There was such a snappy little monkey
I sold him a banana for paper money
Then a little lion cub
grasped onto my sub
I thought it was something kind of funky.
