Premium Member The Blue Jays

As the blue jays  fly
Coming to the deck
Peanuts are thrown out
They gather to feed
Then bellies full fly
         away.

The smell of peanuts,
The crack of the bat—HOME RUN!

Melted chocolate filling
Chopped peanuts sprinkled
Scoop of vanilla ice cream
Crunchy and square treat
Cakey and fudgy

I'm big and bold and mostly blue
I can be heard from a mile or two.
I'll screech and yell and tell the tale
If you leave peanuts on the rail.

Premium Member A Flaming Torch

Snoopy, hero of Peanuts cartoon fame
Sure knew how to play the sympathy game
   He never said Boo
   Or even Yahoo
And became every lady reader's flame

Small, crunchy, n` creamy.
Father X-mas between the two
Salty, tasty, n` nutty.

Merciless.

I saw a 
Gray Squirrel
Remove his
Fluffy Coat!

He was as 
Naked as a
Scrub Jay!

And then he 
Flew Away!

     Hear the vendors at the game
       driving loyal fans insane

    “Peanuts, popcorn, pretzels” they shout
       With my friends and me, they all strike out

Leader of Peanuts gang Charlie Brown
Plays mean football without backing down
But when main crush  Red Haired Gal arrives
He dreadfully runs...attacked by hives!

     Broccoli crowns and carrot sticks
        removed by dental floss and toothpicks

Squirrel In the House

A squirrel in a house he'd not been in before
Grabbed a mouthful of peanuts and ran for the door
He tripped on a mat
And then he fell flat
And his nuts rolled across the floor!

Elly the Elephant

Elly the elephant thought her life was tough,
making ends meet was getting rough,
she was nervous,
left the circus,
a days pay of peanuts packed in her trunk.

oil 'em in the crack pot

Launched 
pea-
nuts 
take a 
long time to 
hardly even fake 

making a weird bounc-
ing effort 
once they 
hit 
the 
glow-

ing showroom

Premium Member His Statue Turned Red

George Washington Carver's statue turned red
So embarrassed, Old George wished he were dead
   A mob stripped him down
   Laughs heard all around
Where his nuts go, they found peanuts instead

Apprehensive Blue Jay

scared of predators
    sits on an oak awaken
       snarfing the peanuts

Peanuts

“Erdnüsschen” he called you,
little earth-nut.
How exotic you sounded 
on his foreign tongue.

Term of endearment.
A cheap snack.

Rid of him now,
you pop
them in your mouth.
Nothing tastes as good.

August Andy
Ate all the candy
That he got in July

All the chocolates, peanuts and taffy
Ate it up all gone, nothing left for October???

Premium Member Give Me a Hurdy Gurdy

Leave the monkey at home, 
The hot peanuts in the pot.
Give me a hurdy-gurdy 
Or simply do not.

Leave the funnel cakes in the kitchen,
And the clowns on the shelf.
Give me a hurdy-gurdy 
For my own little self.

Premium Member Peanuts and Coffee

My late-night snack
  of peanuts and coffee
has got my family
  thinking I'm daffy

But if they weren't such late-risers
  they'd be appalled to see
me noshing red onions with mackerel
  in a wet towel ~ Call me Admiral

Vaccinations

To vaccinate or not?
What about diseases we forgot?
Like polio, T.B and Smallpox?
Kids can't take peanuts to school, or not,
But they can bring Measles and Whooping Cough.
What other diseases have we forgot?
To vaccinate or not?

Premium Member Two Fates

I was raised alongside our dog.
My biggest dream was to be a cog
in the great Cogswell Cogs machine.
I'd work for peanuts or for bones,
but his cubicle nameplate read, "Spot Jones",
while I fought for scraps on streets so mean.

Candy corns coming soon
Circus peanuts, full moon
Candy necklaces for Jane
Caramel cubes again?
Chunkys, one's not enough 
Candy cigarettes, puff  
Crap - what Mom calls that stuff
