if I had a lemon clock

Sugar was misnamed for she was perpetually unhappy.
If I had a pony, I could cheer up.
She got a pony and was more dour now.

If I had a fire truck, I would smile from sunup to sundown.
We went into debt buying her one.
She was happy for eighteen minutes tops.

If I had a lemon clock, I could die happy.
We got her one.
But it did not work.

The Misnamed Would Quarrel

They began to quarrel,
After he heard ‘Squirrel!’
Instead of Stan Scammel
And he called him ‘Rommel’:
“The Not-Strong Enamel”
Who could Hitler blackmail 
While it was ‘Same Barrel!’

Then, they stopped The Quarrel,
When he heard ‘Becquerel’
A Laureate with a Laurel …

Quarrels from Nicknaming:
A Purposed Misnaming!
Who would such start claiming:
A hateful Misnomer;
KGB’s Informer
For OGB Omar …

Growing Old Ain’t For Sissies

Growing Old “Ain’t” For Sissies Miracle Man 1/28/2025 Advanced age took from me my aspirations, often health matters top my list of concerns. I’ve spent time recovering from ablations, and relive my past expecting no returns. My remaining years are misnamed as gilded, While in many cases they resemble rust. Things I once accomplished I wish I still did, but it's in God’s hands that I still place my trust.
