Premium Member The Old Mule
Look at him this old, foolish, useless ass Let’s push him aside as we gaily pass Cruel, unforgiving folk would taunt and say How they tried to hurry him on his way But he knew he’d been useful in his time So took no heed of humans moan and whine He wandered slowly from place to place The folk not knowing to...

Premium Member Hitch the Old Mule and Load the Harvest Cart
Hitch The Old Mule And Load The Harvest Cart Across the plains a bad ole murky mess Unites in its quivering tears apart And the bashful bride dares not that confess As she knows for sure it would break his heart Bloated bodies bend with such dusky chills And the ill cast weather leaves what it starts Grandpa cries, "Hon' bring me...

Premium Member Conjuring a Mule Deer

Tethered to the carts, he was not a part of any herd born, just another beast of burden used, scorned, when his stubborn disposition reared...

A Mule Is Faster Than a Chopper
There is time when there is time And there is time when there is no time My next door neighbor, a loving lad My Lad, You travelled west You went far away, to fly back Away to come back in a plane A plane to seek my hand in Love My Love to keep and fold Now, my distant seeker The seeker rode on...

A Fool Forgets His Tool
Not bringing along my tool Has me made a Big fool: A breaker of workers First Rule And copyist of The Empty Mue That should back turn to school… So unprofessional an omission That I be quick about its admission But here I am rather cool, Placidly surveying a greenish pool While I had all deserved but a stool And time to over spirogyra drool....
