Mrs. O'Leary
her eyesight bleary
bought an old used cow
But when it kicked
the proverbial bucket
all of Chicago screamed, "Ow!"
The proverbial china shop taurus
Is the brutal reptile Trumposaurus
It has a small brain
And it will inflict pain
By attempting to claw your c_litoris
I am the proverbial open book; all one needs to do is read me.

once again
came to a
dead-end
street
no exit point
exists
no means
of escape
no way out
of this present
situation
that we find
ourselves living
If I could be that proverbial fly
I'd listen to Santa, wanna know why?
He checks that stupid list twice
He knows who's naughty or nice
Then I would know if he's passing me by
Have a great birthday, Eireen Joy,
There is a proverbial statement;
It is easier to destroy
Than to build a huge monument.
Topic: Birthday of Eireen Joy G. Amo (March 29)

Heading toward the proverbial well-known light,
I stopped and saved a tiny struggling angel
Her hair was caught, it was a curious plight.

are subject to,
excessive abuse,
leaving folks like you and I with our heads in that proverbial noose.
underhanded
attempts
meant to
act as a
means to
an end
just ended
up to bring
about the
proverbial
end of everything
that was once
established within
this reality
Was Proverbial and Variable
Was no doubt philosophy is proverbial;
Determined to vacillate and be variable;
Not sure;
Part impure;
We found final results totally terriable.

Do not bother me
Can you not see?
I am self involved
The proverbial deaf poet
And don't you know it
Dare you ignore me
I shall shout till you see
Silly, insecure me
Thank the lord
Your not me
such plunder and tyrannic tutelage--a fraud, a fellowship's plague

Thinking of retiring my limerick pen
Replacing it with a hoity toity pen and then
If y'all get on your bikes
And take proverbial hikes
Maybe I'll just go back to writing limerick gems

Baseball's always had me by the proverbial short curlies
Since a very young duffer, even more than young girlies
Even now that I'm old
Though my body's not cold
The Bambino's number three, I still wear his jersey

Though my body's not cold
The Bambino's number three, I still wear his jersey

Since a very young duffer, even more than young girlies
Even now that I'm old
Though my body's not cold
The Bambino's number three, I still wear his jersey

An exceptional wit can sometimes be shocking
Affecting the proverbial Christmas stocking,
I cannot remember being left so in stitches
As an adult, I got a stocking full of switches.
