Buddy brings in a stegosaurus bone
My husband and I both yelp and groan
Chewing so hard now, there is a bit of foam
While my husband chews, I write this poem...

My husband and I lie so often people fact check us
We are used to it and frankly do not care
Open encyclopedias bring us no fuss
We spout our fabricated truth into the air...

I love to watch the falling snow.
It floats down like a falling feather.
Captivating me just like watching a show.
My husband and I like to watch together.
Watching the snow as it's falling nether....

best start for my husband and I.Wedding Bells chime....

days slowly dance into chill perfection
gift to my husband and i affection
as trees of winter leaves shed
on Christmas day we first wed
to love and trace each other's direction

NOT A FUNNY LIMERICK JUST USED THE FORM...

We were out of milk
So, we raced to the grocery store
My husband and I had competing carts
We raced around the aisles like we were on fire
As we were loading ten bags into our trunk
My husband said “Did you get the milk?”
Both of us had forgotten why we came...

No matter what we say
The first automatic answer is NO!
But then upon thinking the two-year-old sometimes changes
The emphatic NO into a yes.
My husband and I used to laugh about this
Until he pointed out that I do the same thing.
Now it is not so very funny....

I’m your huckleberry
Always makes me smile
Since Val Kilmer used it in the move Tombstone

My husband and I used it over and over
The month after we saw the movie
Delighted us beyond any sane reason

To this day when I hear it
I have the same reaction
And I smile...

My husband and I are good at not having bosses.
We like positions where no one tells us what to do.
We have quit many jobs and cut our losses.
Give us autonomy, which we feel is our due.
Hire us if you must, but as sure as trees have mosses
We will resign fast unless left alone by you....

What was that?
My husband and I look at each other
It looked like a hybrid
Part raccoon, part cat
Possibly weasel
It ran right out in front of us
I look up Ringtail Weasel
There is such an animal
It is nocturnal, rarely found in the daytime
We are not surprised to see it is also called Ringtail cat...

He jingles when he walks through
So we know he has coins in his pockets.
My husband and I roll our eyes.
We don’t care.
He thinks he is getting by with something.
And he is.
We think it is cute at age four.
If he is still grabbing coins out of our massive pickle jar at twenty-four
we might feel differently....

My husband and I live in a birdhouse the woman said.
I was amused when I met her scrawny necked husband.
He was built like an ostrich with a rear that stuck out.
And long skinny legs, that reminded me of most birds.
I wish he did not wear those striped socks, she said.
I thought their birdhouse was more than appropriate now....

Friends lost & friends gained
As memories begin to fade
A world created just for us
A world that best friends share, that's us
You draw, I write, together we created our life
Years gone and more to come
For your my husband and I your wife
Together we made this life
Together now, together than, together forever
You and me
My dearest friend...

my husband and I both like to keep weird hours
we can be up all night
or part of the night
and be happy during the day

until a delivery man comes
and the hounds of hell begin their braying
we have two large dogs with barking voices
they do not like strangers

the delivery man runs from the scene
thinking they are at his heels
they are not
they are hiding behind us
barking dire warnings to the intruder...

My husband and I are redundant.
When one of us asks “Remember the time?”
The other one will say “yes” and it will be the same time.
This limits our conversation.
We laugh at the same things during TV watching.
We can sit silently for an hour and twenty-six minutes.
Them bam! We are both laughing like hyenas on crack.
In between the simultaneous laughing we say the same things at the same times.
My husband and I are redundant....

The dogs were barking up their lungs
Lunging at the door, as if there were murderers in the yard
I said to my husband “maybe we should not answer the door.”
No one tells that man what to do. He went marching out.
Nothing out there, he told me.
The dogs went running out to chase someone we could not see.
“spirit people,” my husband and I both agreed.
We see this at least once a day.
Always wondering if they ever catch the culprit....

A MIDDAY NIGHTMARE

Gates opened at our home, drove in, before we could touch the remote,
Guns at our heads, masked men shouting, hammer’s back, itchy fingers,
We will kill you, give us jewelry, money, all you’ve got, or these triggers
Will go off, nightmare in our garden, they left, we lived, so this I wrote!

Out for a romantic walk
Under the evening moon,
We came across a street
That presented a pleasant tune.
The air would fill with rapture
It would capture every heart,
My husband and I
Couldn't wait for it to start.
At just the right moment
The Maestro rose His baton,
In melodious overture-like chirps
The crickets chanted their song.
They sang with tenor voices 
As they called out to their mates,
The symphony completed
As we walked on past the gate....

My husband and I are arguing, and it is loud and proud.
We could walk around stomping and mean, under a sad rain cloud,
But we have known each other since first grade, with dear Mrs. Stroud.
When we disagree we turn into five-year-olds, loud and proud.
Others might not understand thinking our marriage is ready for a shroud,
These babyish ways work for us, so please forgive us when we are loud.
And get out of our way and give us some space when we get proud....

bubble gurgle bubble gurgle bubble bubble bubble bubble
he is as relaxed as a puppy, tiny bubbles on his mouth
worn out from today’s stroller ride; April air does this to him.
my husband and I take turns peeking at him, to see if he is breathing.

he gurgles and bubbles, unconcerned, dreaming baby dreams.
four months old, and we cannot remember life without him
have we ever been more in love in our lives?
Just one other time, when our daughter was a baby....

I can walk through the darkness without light for 
I know you will be standing at the edge of night
as sure as the lighthouse does in it's trusted plight.

Render to me the safety of your eager, loving arms
and lend me your ever present and tender charm.
Your perfect touch and warm, and passionate stare
makes me long for your honest and loyal care.

Never shall I ever be afraid of what comes in this life
not as long as you are my husband and I your wife....

"I go to Burning Man every year," Timidia told us.
My husband and I nearly spit out our coffee.
She was an accountant, unassuming, dumpy.
She wore shirts with plastic pen protectors.

Timidia attended Burning Man!
What?
In those clothes? I asked her.
She shook her head, no.  "In no clothes at all"

I now picture her in a whole new way.
Wishing that she weighed a teensy bit less.
I go too, her Bohemian husband said.
He has hair down to his hoo-hah. No surprise here....
