Short Pranks Poems

Bats and boogie men come out of the
Ominous evening of Halloween when
Offering of treats prevents pranks....

Joe Schmidt grew up the Eastern Bowery
His upbringing was less than flowery
He robbed a few banks
And a few more pranks
After which his whole life turned out sourly....

Mercury in Retrograde
The stars play
troublesome pranks.
Send us back where we began
back again.
We crash we wake
and seethe,
like the pull from the moon 
at night
on sand....

Suddenly seeing imageries in the shed's wooden planks,
As though my own mind is playing optical illusional pranks,
Finally have found the right high that hits me like heavy tanks....

Dragonfly Fey
mischievous flipping pixie dust; 
Dragonfly Fey 
with a smile giggling everyday; 
Playful pranks but we seem to trust 
with strong hearts nothing can go bust, 
Dragonfly Fey....

Antics aplenty
Plastic dog poop everywhere
Rude whoopee cushions
Is your fridge running? Catch it!

Trump Plan We Envision

This is Trump's plan we envision
That is to create much dissension
Around country and in the ranks
Foolish tricks and pulling pranks
Do horrible things women mention.

Trump Can Be Causing Dissension

Trump can be causing dissension in the ranks, 
And discovered much of it is contained in tanks; 
A big blur, 
Did occur,  
Appearing when he pulls off all of his pranks.

Moon in eastern sky
And mist melds mountains with trees
Lantern is sailing west
the moon sleeps alone
controlling the tide as 
you control my thoughts
Moon in Scorpio. 
Incurable somnolence.

He disrupts the class with pranks;

            draws attention to himself.

              Another day of mischief.

                The teacher is irked.

Sitting in class bored
The teacher is writing an unending problem on the chalk board
People playing pranks
Throwing lunch hours' green franks
Cell phones are ringing 
Birds outside singing
Starring in space 
A class room out of place
Bored...

Now, We pack away our ghost
as we do this time of year
and all those wicked creatures
that fill our hearts and minds with fear
As we see the season passing
We cease our foolish  pranks
looking forward to the day
Share a meal, while giving thanks...

three kids hide-and-seek

as night ebbs...two disappear

leaving one alone


Giggles crack when two hands brush the one dazed 
Reveling on pranks, a threesome amazed!

not just any jokes;
but a humorous prank,
in dirty deeds and actions.
a banana peel for slipping,
a whoopie cushion for surprising.
series of sarcasms for icebreakers,
at last, untold execution of tickling for random giggles.
and maybe a secret diss in your wish list....

My boyfriend, Frank,
likes to prank me.
I drank flat beer.

Now it's my turn.
I did learn fast
to burn his steak.

Frank is to blame
for the lame pranks.
The game goes on.

during summertime
          I tucked marbles in round jars
          along with my pranks, my glee-
          naughty in boyhood
          counting each frolic mattered
          till hands kept jars-  to watch girls

Halloween's for playing pranks
   Thanksgiving, for giving thanks 

Veteran's Day is in between
   to recall those killed by bombs and tanks

They gave their lives for you and me
   for our country --- so we can all be free

Let us pause, to them remember
   on this Monday, the 11th of November...

thunder fantastic beings
         that come out of the clouds
         to scare
          frightening even,
          little clouds children...
             Lightning and lightning
             are tongues of fire
             stretched out in
              celestials
                 pranks...!...

Bugs Bunny
his exploits were so funny,
his pranks on poor old E Fudd,
were hysterically good!
 
Elmer Fudd
if he could kill Bugs he would,
but his plans do always fail,
for a new saga and tale……..

Listen to poem:

Mr. Thomas Jeffrey Hanks,
Was known to pull off desk pranks,
I told him, "Three bags."
He said, "From those hags."
One heard, said, "No tip, so thanks!"



***Under his breath, he tells me, "Oh yeah! I gave them their tip, alright!"

I wish I could go back to my childhood days

There forever, I would like to stay



Now I miss those carefree days

When I had so many pranks to play



All kind of time passes away

Niether happiness nor sorrows stay



Now when my hair are getting gray

I wish I could find my old friends along the way....

April is the month for fools,
At least today, the first,
When pranks are played and joking rules 
As logic is reversed.

It’s been around for many years,
Observed both here and there,
With hoaxes ending not in tears
But laughter meant to share.

To get in spirit, pull a gag
To fool your kith or kin.
Shake off those doldrums - time to snag
That silliness within....

The time has come to start a season,
To heal a mad-dash Autumn's lesions.

The sun-spent earth resists the flakes
Insistent notes like music makes
The thirsty ground a pillowcase.

Sharp winds elicit needed sighs
As inch by inch the Autumn dies--
Replaced by comfort mountains high.

The sleeping earth will gather strength
As nature waits for Springtime's pranks....

Does anybody still play pranks
To honor April Fools’?
It used to be a date when people
Messed with all the rules.

The press would often publish
Stores that were clearly fake.
We laughed about that once, but now
There’s just too much at stake.

It’s sad to find that humor
Lately, more than not, provokes,
When in the past we lightened up,
On April Fools’, with jokes....
