There once was a waiter named Danny
Who thought that he had a cute fanny
So he switched for his tip
And he wiggled his hip
The tip that he got was uncanny!...

My friend Danny was soon to be wed

I implied he'd be better off dead

He mused, then winked at me

And walked into the sea

I hope it wasn't something I said...

His piano teacher taught Danny
that Every Greek Boy Does Fanny 
But Danny-boy
Was not his joy
Instead he played New Key with Nanny...

   What’s on tap
      Who’s on top

   I’ll give you a tip
      They sang ‘At the Hop’



   Put another dime in the jukebox
      ~ Rock'n'Roll will never die

there was a young lady named Fanny
who expected to marry her fiancé Danny
she found him one day
kissing young Fay
and kicked his butt from Dublin to Killarney

Daniel saw a dinosaur
Ten feet tall
Or maybe more
It sat there on the kitchen floor
As Danny looked in through the door
He peeked again just to be sure, and
Daniel saw a dinosaur...

Do not worry about a lot of sleazy men, yon female gender. Some  of may be sleazy, but not necessarily crazy. We just happen to enjoy the finer things in life, within the law, of course....

     Danny Diver is no belly-flopper
     Only this time his dive came a-cropper 

        Danny started out fine
        But he’d drunk too much wine 

      He's motionless in the rescue-copter

Danny Rand, with a fist like a gong,
Tried meditating, where nothing went wrong.
But a fly, rather bold,
Landed right on his nose, cold,
Then he yelled, "Chi control's been too long!"

Little Danny Hedgehog
Just a-walkin' in the garden
  Kissin' up to kittens
  Hmm... What the dickens

Danny says, Please pardon
That I was in your garden
  Kittens' tit for tat ~
  Get lost, you spiky rat...

dilly dallying danny deliberately defies
daughter dinahs deliberations
denise does donuts during danny’s debate
roaring, rearing, ready rusty ruminations
rarely recognizable, really riling up dinah’s
dander....

Danny tell me how are you?

"I am fine Miss. Thank you."

Tell me who all stay with you?

"Dad, Mom and little baby Sue

Granny and Grandpa too"

Danny diligently drew delightful dinosaurs
Delightful dinosaurs Danny diligently drew
If Danny diligently drew delightful dinosaurs-
Where are the dinosaurs Danny diligently drew?
Whew!


For the dinosaur contest..(obviously)...

Monday's not fun days
Clouds make gloomy face
Brittany got free

Tuesday rain a pain
Danny hovers close
Droplets hit the earth

Dusk, dawn, hold the phone
Wait, who calls today?
Type, type, text, who's next?

(References to Brittany Spears and Danny the tropical storm)...

Danny just loved to while the time away
Couldn't be bothered to see where he stayed
   In his hammock relaxed
   His brain not overtaxed
Fell deep asleep -- froze to death in Norway

disrespected demons demanded
Des Moines delegates demolish D, a demi-god.
disgusted demoralized downy ducks
demoted demons, discussed by Danny Dod.
Des Moines demonstrators decreed demons delightful
while downing demi-tasse.
D, a demi-god, demoted demure ducks
during democratic demonstration, of Doss....

Look at little Danny, playing with his gun,

Running around the garden,

Mouth full of chewing-gum,

  Hiding in the bushes,

Rustling through the trees

looking for the enemy,

Crawling on his knee's,

Suddenly he spies them,

And aims to take his shot, 

The bullet fire he imitates,

With bubble-gum pops!...

Danny, Ricky, Dave -

Names I’ll carry to the grave.

Chico, Glenn and Chris -

Through junior high, I loved all six!

The cousins' fiddle duet plays  Danny Boy
and summons the memory of a Danny dead 40 years.

Aunt looks to see if Uncle will share her memory
of their momentary boy,

But he is busy sharing photos of other memories
and does not hear.


Note: My cousin Danny died when he was just a toddler and I never knew him....

As we put putted out
into the estuary, the 
sounds of the city 
receded, the tang of 
sea filled my nostrils 
and the water turned 
from brown to aqua.
Danny  put out the lines
but all was quiet so I 
whittled a piece of spruce,
letting the shavings drift
in our wake, as I sucked 
a hard yellow candy 
waiting for my sockeye....

Lord, let
Me tidy up
A few things
With me clever
Scottish Bagpipes
Well, I know
The battlefield
Shall claim
Her brave soldiers, but
Danny deserves
A proper resting place, now
Show him
The road
To heaven's gate
All I'm asking, dear Lord
Is to please
Bring our
Danny boy
Back home,
To sweet Ireland
Just a heart beat away...
