Somewhat a nerd,
He just simply could not make a friend,

Christopher was the lively...

I have lost a lot of friends
A lot of my friends from back then
Time has stolen them from me
I am not even certain
Of how they met their end ‘
But you specifically 
Do you remember
In Nursery...

Why was my whole special school life, 
An interpretation of nature and school?
A philosophical contemplation and analysis,
A freeway inquiry into the education tool. 

Because the god concept was lain out,
On the household table, delicately spread,...

All that ho ho ho, Christmas cheer, Scrooge says.
Bah humbug I say.

Santa ponders how to reply,
knowing he will not convert Scrooge,
but wanting him to understand.
Why don’t...

Rome wasn't built in a day
   Mexicans like saying "Ole!"
If your horse eats nothing but hay
   Teach him how to order on e-Bay

While terriers put sugar in their 'tay'

Pivotal moments
From when I was a tiny girl
In my first year of school
That drift through my thoughts 
Like the apple sticker that 
Was my peg at nursery school
And feeling proud of having

Remembering my mother, 
when a baby, I was
in a cot wrapped up warm 
singing me a lullaby to suit
Sleep beautiful, 
Sleep a dream happily.

Remembering my mother, 
With tears in her eyes
As my cries of pain...

When kids are born, we sacrifice – 
Our time, our sleep, our food.
Activities we once enjoyed
We sometimes must exclude.

We share our sandwich and our seat;
We schlep to kiddie classes
And sometimes opportunity
Waves smugly as it passes.

There once was a young tot named Fazool
Who attends a posh nursery school
Got himself in a pickle
For charging a mere nickel
Each time he let a girl see his tool.

Fazool was an enterprising lad

( to the tune of "Yankee Doodle")

Grandpa went to nursery school
To fetch his darling grandson;
Put the boy inside his car,
But somehow not the planned one.

Grandpa made a little goof;
Boys had outfits matchin’.
Sound like just a...
