The wife was driving the Wong Wei
When she heard the sound of gunplay

She sped away
And lived to drive another day

Mark shot his arrow on Saturday
It never returned, just sped away
It took a wrong turn –
turbo afterburn
Maybe it will be back on Friday

Rain came
Hearts scared
People fled
A car sped
Water splashed
Round the corner
An umbrella sprang up
A mother hugged
A child giggled
The rain rattled

I thought I'd saved my best for last
yet it seems the month sped by too fast
Glad to get January out of the way
so Punxsutawney Phil can have his day

One woman of a certain percentage,
Kept her upkeep to skillful advantage.
As the years sped past,
She maintained her class;
Not turning old but into fine vintage.

What lies just beyond the horizon
Evolution has sped up to speed quite frightening
Before we know it
Things emoted
As unfamiliar to us as a foreign asylum

Determined to succeed
He'd play that guitar 'til his fingers'd bleed
Once, Kyle aspired to be a rock star
~ 'til sped to the manicurist in an ambulance car

Quickly grabbed my briefcase
My brolly fought the rain
I sped to the station
Only just caught my train
Bang on nine… my boss rants
You’re here… but where’s your pants?

A teenager got stopped for speeding.
Said the exasperated trooper aghast:
“Didn’t you see the speed limit?” he inquired?
“No,” said the teen, “it sped by me too fast.”

A cab was called to the wrong address
After pulling up he then got stressed
The place was haunted with spooks
He realized he'd been duke
He sped off not knowing he'd been test

maybe it was the rain
maybe it was the curve
maybe it was the rush
maybe it was the swerve
maybe he didnt buckle in
maybe he sped
maybe he didnt know he would be leaving us...
maybe.

No Desire To Succeed
Trump never had a desire to ever succeed,
Or help other people and them try to feed;
Has exploded,
Media avoided;
Away into space he in Air Force One sped.

Did Dedicate To Asuncion
Poet Asuncion is almost a thousand ahead,
Some day out of all poets he will have lead;
We bet,
A record set,
And off into poetry heaven he soon sped.

The scary moment in his life:
She said, ‘I want to be your wife.’
He answered, ‘Sorry, but I’m gay’ -
And then he turned and sped away…
Just some silliness

Grown Miss Muffet put “tuffet” on display
family quickly denounced her as a stray
Muffet found bike rider
who called himself Spider
and, after curds, he and she sped a-whey

In-pine-sweet air
In humus soil
Is where I rest, away from care,
And trail weary toil.
One morning feathers filled the air,
With wooden shafts that sped
And left this traveler to lie
With poisoned arrowhead.

Tracks Or Train With A Tarnish
Either train itself or tracks had a tarnish;
Missions and goals difficult to accomplish;
Unstable section;
Was a detection,
As on the rails train sped and went swish.

Cletus O'Toole tested the slopes at Vail
He met some trees as he sped t'ward the vale
'Twas a short-lived journey
Sprawling on a gurney
His hapless schuss left him woozy and pale

What I Love About the Lord
What I will always love about the Lord,
Is when he gave me a great surfboard;
Quickly sped;
Had hit my head;
Riding waves with it do look forward.

He abseiled from the ceiling
He rode a silken thread,
I blew a little breath his way
So back up he sped.
A plucky little fellow
He certainly was game.
He waited for a minute,
Then came back down again.

Limerick: Once a lolling lassie from Laredo
Once a lolling lassie from Laredo
Jumped on a bronco to enter a rodeo
But the steed fell in love
With the curve of her alcove
And sped away on a honeymoon to Mejico.
