My scary cat face is only loved by my fun-loving mother.
It is despised by my six sisters and my ugly brother.
My dad is only knows who; we are not really sure.
But I think he would agree my scary cat face is pure.
I have a grandma who thinks it is the best face of all.
She lives in a kitchen, in a big house with Mrs. McCall.
I am her favorite grandson, as I am the best one.
Playing catch mice in her kitchen is amazingly fun!
One day I saw a guy staring in the window at home.
I put down my pen and stopped writing a poem.
He had the same face, and he seemed glad to see me.
I imagined he was my dad, so I invited him to tea.
A butcher named Richard McCall
Attended a naturist ball.
But at registration,
Due to refrigeration,
His name tag read "Dickie McSmall".
HELLO SOUPERS IT'S BEEN A MINUTE SINCE I'VE POSTED HERE I'VE
BEEN BUILDING A FOLLOWING ON INSTAGRAM BUT I'LL BE BACK SOON.
I'VE MISSED ALL OF YOU AND I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO RECONNECTING WITH ALL OF YOU AGAIN.

Moshe, Larry, Curly,
Howls, cries, nyuks;
Three silly comic stars:
Smile, clown -- Cluck!
Chico, Harpo, Benny, Berle,
Moron grins, happy chins;
Crazy nutty comic kooks:
Funny jokes -- egads zooks!
Alvin Ailey, dance gaily,
False teeth: Brush daily;
Silly Sally, Dilly-dally,
Ollie, Holly, Mollie!
Belly flops, fatal plops,
Messy slops, lemon drops;
Harry Caray, Tooth Fairy,
Music Maven -- Chuck Berry.
Pitty-patty, kitty-katty,
Ticky-tacky, Cinci-nnati
Polly-Wolly, Wooly Bully,
Diffy-daffy, Laughy Taffy!

Notes: Moe Howard's (of the Three Stooges) actual first name was Moshe.
'Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk' was a trademark line of Curly (3 Stooges.)
Berle is comedian: Milton Berle (aka 'Uncle Miltie').
'Egads zooks' is an exclamation my mother and others of her
generation used to use (frequently).
'Wooly Bully' was a pop song by Sam the Sham and the Pharoahs,
released in 1965; it soared high on the Top-40 charts.
Three blind mices
Clock hands, stick
Small furry fices
Their poops, thick ...
Could their feces
Cling, quite fixed
Maybe those meces
Catch necks ... nixed.

Great green globs
Grimy messy mound
Never finer found
Smack, drool, sniff

American comedy T.V. Show “The Addams Family”
Morticia would speak French and Gomez couldn’t help but be turned on,
kissing her hand and arm. Some other crazy characters in the cast: A hand that lives in a box called “Thing” and “Lurch” the scary butler. He was famous for his deep voice “You Rang?” as he answered the door to visitors.
jolie femme — pretty wife
amour - lover
Above mama’s abode lives Saber Tooth Tiger Chuck,
seems poopy tired, drank three shots under mama’s truck.
Fancy Zebra Ellie loves claws, razor sharp aglow,
Chuck wears green pants, booty often shows below.
Scale tells Chuck carbs aren’t belly proof among lunch,
fussy habit eater; likes round pizza, fatty wings, bunch.
Silly Ellie beams about rebel Bubba, famed city’s baker,
while Chuck ruins five tasty cakes, novel woman taker.
Chuck slugs Bubba; abuse dazes, anger among crowd,
Bubba pukes chili after blood drips, tiger fangs proud.
Three fight until Ellie cried, hoped they’d avoid being stuck,
Bubba gives Ellie five dozen roses...adieu Saber Tooth Tiger Chuck!

Honorable Mention
Brave Texas woman rides horse after Mary’s white sheep.
Sheep taken while girls watch hanky-panky movie.
Cross River finds green field empty.
Minny Mouse gives dozen sheep water.
Horse yield tired, needs break.
Rogue tiger hears lunch bells, mouth water.
Lambs chops fried, makes great table plate.
Black wolfs lofty large sharp teeth scare tiger.
Tiger cries, belly hurts, maybe wolfs share sheep.
Woman shows small rifle which drive large wolfs south.
Wolfs smile, visit piggy house, worth their labor,
mouth water, stuff apple piggy mouth sound sweet.
Large brick house saves piggy.
Girls awake, where Mary’s sheep flock?
Girls didn’t proper watch furry sheep.

Poetry Contest: A little laughter five
Sponsored by: Edward McCall
Poem’s Notes:
(Bride didn’t clear grade three exams.
Tests shant deter life’s plans!
Groom talks silly taboo.
Never cared, likes wife’s screw!)
Groom wears loose jeans.
Shaft fills tight seams.
Bride looks under table.
Likes sight; tells fable:
“Once there lived Bunny.
Shhhh…quiet Honey.”
Bride began story again…
“Bunny wants hare’s skins.
Loves butts tight; small.
Bunny noses sniff flaws.”
Groom stops…quick…think!
Gulps. Yikes! Heart sinks.
(Bride butt’s quite jumbo.)
(Pours soups, lotsa gumbo)
“Hurry, Lover. Sorta tired.
Early morns, debts mired.”
Bride yawns, takes pause.
Shirk small Groom flaws.
“Never worry, Bride cares.”
Ended story, twirl hairs.

Halloween horror
Sally hides sweet candy under table
(Since sweet candy makes teeth decay)
Mummy angry...
Finds trick treat candy boxes empty
Jelly beans, fruit salad, black jacks - whole stash eaten!
Sally looks awful..
Tummy aches
Sally spews vomit
Nasty vomit shows candy
Daddy cross
Mummy livid...
Early night Sally!
Sulky Sally cries

Magic Brown Bread
Baker fully aware
brown bread baked gaily
would later cause ardor
while eaten daily.
Since Muira Puama added,
spicy amour arose.
Basic logic found,
bread eaten, oomph grows!
Baker grins, beams, avows
lover pairs visit daily,
stand perky, await turns;
munch magic bread gaily.
