Hank’s Predicament
Limerick: by Tom
7/27/2022

I once knew a man named Hank,
while in the army drove a tank.
Then one day’s dread,
the tank lost a tread.
At that time Hank's mind went blank.

AND THE OSCAR GOES TO

Hollywood calls him Mr. Hanks.
They pay him with baked beans and franks.
His stomach is churning.
His buttocks are burning.
But he still has time to say thanks.

Listen to poem:

Mr. Thomas Jeffrey Hanks,
Was known to pull off desk pranks,
I told him, "Three bags."
He said, "From those hags."
One heard, said, "No tip, so thanks!"



***Under his breath, he tells me, "Oh yeah! I gave them their tip, alright!"

"Its corona time" they said
I really hope I don't wind up dead
Many people have such as Tom Hanks
He's been tested. It wasn't a prank

Stores are running out of Purell and toilet paper
COVID-19 is like a game and we are all desperate players

Wash your hands and say a prayer
Becasue coronavirus is everywhere...

Don't Wait For Tomorrow


Thanks we give for a brand new day

One by one we build our life

Rid the woes...

So thoughtfully planted, these treats for your sight
Long awaited blooms rising up to the light
Under your care as they thrive poised in the sun
Gorgeous petals admired one-by-one 
Beckoning those who should happen upon them 
As the slow and sly grasp roots for ascension
In expectation of the coming reward for their hikes
Thanks left in slime for the delectable bites.

Cactus Dancer 

Graceful spider dances on sharp cactus spikes
Spinnerets leave webs of dainty filigree 
Each web a masterpiece of sublime delights
Silk filaments wear dews as the moonlight flees
Eight tiny feet twirl over the spiny heights,
On prickly thorns leaves a magic feathery,
Mysterious craftsman spins the intricate
Cobweb sculptures spun in orbs magnificent

I woke up inside a capsized boat.
What if I get cut on a coral reef?
What if I get stranded for four years like Tom Hanks?
What will I do for food, water, shelter, warmth?

Could I live without any company?
I stared at the moon.
At least I have her, I will name her Dolly.
We will have conversations.

I could write them down and become famous.
I hope I get stranded for at least two weeks I thought.
I could use the break from work.
“Ahoy!” someone called from a new boat. “Need help?”...
