  your face looks quite suspicious...

           yet comically cute!

I'm sure it's my imagination
 that absolute ludicrous, convoluted
 nonsensical, useless, illogical, even
 comically forced rhyme is applauded,
 lauded, praised and commended
 as splendid...

the cats rise, arch, eat, lick,
then slink off seeking sun-
toiling is not in their ken.

the dog also rises; stretches;
scampers comically to your side
and farts...first smile of the day!...

Squirrely squiggly
Toughly Triggly
Whirly Wiggily
Girly Giggily

Laughingly happy
Graphing her Gaffy
Draffingly Draffy
Slappily slappy

Nonsensical verse

Piggily pig
Jiggily jig

the black and
white ink laid
aside for
centerfold gold
the choice
of elementary
girl
basic colors
comically
displayed
Hagar
the horrible
Brenda Starr
the family
circle
Blondie
dad
read all the
sections
except
mine
those
happy days
no tablet
in hand, phone
attached
to the wall
a lazy
Sunday
afternoon
however
the thought
crossed
my mind
a wristwatch
that tells time
and lets me
watch tv
besides
who knew
