Short Humored Poems

He is my friend; I will never leave him.
We humored our puppy for a while,
thinking he would outgrow his love for his owl.
He never did.
They spend their days together 
On one dog bed....

A garrulous, loquacious, querulous person can be extremely jejune and petulant.
 
In other words,

They are usually wordy, talkative, cranky-whining and often dull or ill-humored people....

Two beauties were not quite flappers
But Parisians, so almost that open
Servicemen approached them cautiously
Pulled up two chairs, flirted a bit.
They humored them before sending them packing....

Ogden Nash begets the Nasher
Humored couplets somewhat brasher

Seems these rhymes are wrenched in nature
Clenched, this nomenclature impure

Odd end Ogden, gnashing nashers,
Hence the wincing grimace assures...

HER TIME

ill- dated she thought
ill-humored her birth brought
ill-omened her race
ill-starred her pace.

Through thick hide
Though beffudled
Hard-boiled she remained
Her bright future is imminent.

Ineluctable is her fate
Bridled by unknown
Blithe she ever has been
Awaiting a pleasant futurity.

Let´s meet the happy-go-lucky man;
full-blooded,
neither craven nor valiant,
taking life as it comes with a touch of indifferent air,
good-humored, easy-going,
careless and not jealous.
Just It wouldn´t be bad to beam him a bit of mundane grandeur to be a perfect partner.

If it was not because...
We are actually referring  to a dummy...

Bright, yellow, fun balloons rise in the air,
   bring optimistic and good-humored flair.
With cheerfulness, enthusiasm, share-
   a brilliant, yellow, sunshine-like affair.

My family
remembered now
and in our projected
integral future,
in this eco-political body
of spirited
natural Earth,

Birthing
and dying,
regenerating
and degenerating,
easing
and diseasing,
healthy
and pathological,
good humored
and bad hearted,

Unconsciously contemplating,
co-template-recreating
cooperative memorable days
and deep matriotic nights....

A naughty knight, his maiden sought,
Had high hopes they might tie the knot.
And though they ought, or so he thought,
’Twas all for naught, disaster-fraught,
Forgot how tied her nightie knots.
She, humored not, said Gute Nacht!

All day long I heard the first graders talking about the peanut car.
I knew there was not such a thing, but I humored them.
Who saw it?
Daisy
Where was it?
At the restaurant?
When was that?
This morning.
They are excited now that I am getting involved.
Maybe it will quiet them down.
The peanut car suddenly drove past the playground.
There was a frenzy.
I was making more cheering noises than the six-year-olds...

SERIOUS CONVERSATION :
It's the one that only talks of death ...
funeral, grave for Example ...

    TALK TALK ...
The one where those only talk nonsense,
or speak of unattainable grandeur ...

     FIDDLE-FADDLE:
It's the one that doesn't pay the bill
 and doesn't deserve it
reliable credit ...

     CRAZY TALK:
It's just to laugh ...
Example conversation between 2 drunk,
discussing philosophical questions ...
Existential Issues ......
