Short Guppies Poems

Love bananas with my puffies
Makes me squirm in my undies
Wanna climb trees
But it makes me wheeze
Guess I'll just get back to my guppies...

Why do puppies like to chew up paper
To ingest the news I'm thinking, this caper
Smart ass puppies
Smarter than guppies
They just swim around smiling back at us gapers...

   The truth is outdated
      Falsehoods inflated
    With hyperbole
      created…

    Fishing poles baited
      wriggling worms slated
    to reel in us guppies
       addlepated…

ROLLING FISHERMAN

the fisherman floats on the boat
in torrent lake waters
in early morning summer
while trying to fish for guppies
roll, roll, roll your boat

Guppies in my garden pond multiplied
Lilies  bloomed 
Bushy.snow white rose flowered
Berries ripe
Sparrows 
Squirrels
Breeze 
Every Breeze brings a song
Every song brings a guest 
Every guest brings a smile
Every smile spreads light
Light......
One day....

Their silver nightclub microphones were mega-big, giant size I’d say
Three sensuous singing goldfish stepped up to sing the night away
They started with Chattanooga Choo Choo which always makes me cry
Ending up with a hearts and flower song where some creepy guppies die....

A nick jr show that's popular among many young kids.
It deals underwater creatures that solve problems through food.

I'm obviously too old for it and released way after my time,
But it's good to see what the younger generation of kids are into.

It seems nice and cute.
It just may get a bigger fandom once the audience gets older....

Such a lively band of vagabonds
Saxophone player, acrobat, chimney sweep
Their music parades into my mind as I fish
Enjoying their rhythm as I enjoy catching guppies

We are in a fantasy world that makes me feel safe
Safer than I have ever felt, as I am a vagabond too
The acrobat and ballerina begin to dance
Shaking our violin just a bit...

Who can control the gold guppies the fishwisher did ask.
Merwoman Mamie said she might be up to the task.
She had raised some children – mermaids and mermens.
Pretty soon she had the gold guppies doing tricks in their tins.
She does it so easily, observed a coral reef god named Nom.
Maybe because she already has experience as a fantastic mom....

cat, dog and a red and black bird.
Her pet fetish seemed to some absurd.
She likes the feathers and the fur.
But what about scales? Do they tickle her?

The next week after luncheon, we got an answer to this.
Inside her bathtub was a baby crocodile named Little Miss.
What about fish? Do they put her in the pink?
She had two large guppies living in her wash tub sink....

i put a door on my aquarium
so the fish could come and go as they please
although the idea might be scaring them
it's not like i made it screened

if they just barely open it
that will help to stem the flow
i know the goldfish are all hoping that 
the guppies don't treat it like a swinging door

i'm sure they'll get used to it in time
as we all do things in life
and when they do they'll come to realize
above all else my genius mind...

As the yellow-orange  sun  slowly rises
Memories of your class's  fun  flood my heart
Thoughts  run  to your teaching and enterprises

You brought those  tiny  guppies to our class
A creative  shiny  diorama's great art
 Sunshiny  person and dedicated lass

You  lifted  us up when you said
All the  gifted  books available we'd outsmart
Sad you to your death  drifted  from your sickbed      ...
