Some people seem to have it all.
Some keep running and trying.

And I feel gone.

Humpty Dumpty, 
would you mind scooching?

                blue egg in the nest unboiled

Humpty Dumpty sat on the wall
But so Humpty Dumpty wouldn’t fall
He was sent by the head of human resource
On a three week health and safety course

Humpty Dumpty Smoked Out

Huffy Puffy had a smoke

Huffy Puffy had to choke

All the king’s doctors and all the king’s men

Couldn’t put Huffy Puffy’s lungs together again.

HUMPTY TRUMPTY HAD A VERY BIG FALL

COULDN'T PUT HUMPTY TOGETHER AGAIN

Humpty Dumpty had a Great Fall 
His Winter was one of the best of them all
The Spring was a gift of Eternal Life
Summer reminds him of the Death of his Wife

Premium Member Fairy Tale Happy

Goldilocks had three, not one berry, 
Humpty Dumpty in jubilation
Mary, who is quite ordinary
Rainbow gold tip tethers creation
Jack, Jill, and my son are happy.

Humpty Trumpty

Humpty Trumpty sat in the White House,
Humpty Trumpty had a great electoral loss;
All his lawyers and crooked friends, 
Couldn't make Humpty Trumpty president again.

Premium Member Over Easy

Running away, Humpty fell on his head

King’s horses and men just left him for dead

Fractured at once, so he cannot be tried

Dropped over easy then scrambled or fried

Humpty Dumpty

Republican head
Democrat heart
Mired in conflict
Forever apart
Symbiotic division
Zero Sum in intent
Mutual destruction
—broken not bent

Premium Member Humpty's Don'T Bounce

Humpty Dumpty didn’t bounce like a grape
Nor fly away with a magical cape
He turned a shell of himself
When he fell off the shelf
Since they hadn’t yet, invented duck tape

Anti Thesis

She was chirpy
He was perky
They took the road
That was bumpy
One was called Humpty
While the other was Dumpty
They never had a fall
For humpty had dumpty had humpty :)

There once was an egg called humpty

He was fat and round and dumpty

Then one day he fell

And shattered his shell

And now he’s a chicken called lumpty

Premium Member The Humpty Dumpty Conundrum

The Humpty Dumpty conundrum -
is it a cravat or cummerbund?
Do not answer this in haste - 
from the bottom up what is his waist
might as well be his neck,
and now that egg is in a wreck.

Premium Member Gotta Crack a Few Eggs - Or a Big One

Humpty Dumpty fell from great height, perfectly mixing the yolk and the white. All the king’s horses and all the king’s men had them some omelettes, then had some again.

Humpty Dumpty

All the Kings men were out at the Ball
When rumours say Humpty had taken a fall
But he's still in one piece and without any pain
In fact, he's on holiday, on the south coast of Spain

Premium Member The Scrambling of Humpty-Dumpty

Humpty-Dumpty sat on the wall and gambled,

   That if he fell his yolk would not be scrambled.

      Yet when he fell,

         He cracked his shell.

            Alas, no way he could be reassembled!

Numpty Trumpty plans to build a brick wall Will it be his election downfall As all the bricklayers and all the tradesmen Have vowed not to lay a brick ever again! 05~19~17

Parable Terrible and Unbearable

heard a parable
which had been unbearable
sounding terrible

they would enable
you to hide under a table
which was in a stable

when you will appall
where you have started to stall
like humpty may fall
