Whose dog is it? Someone queried.
The rest of the neighbors laughed.
Look at his colorful tam
Look at his dreads
It is Marley’s dog
Or an impersonator, someone suggested

Alliteration
In Scotland the reindeer arrived at a canter
And Rudolph gave Santa some humorous banter
His outfit was red
But sat on his head
A bright ginger wig and an old Tam O’ Shanter

Our tam tams are vibrating
to the rhythm of the hunt.
Mighty bear is in the forest
showing his angst.
His claws are large
as the tips of our spears.
His teeth are as tips of arrows,
which fly to his fur.
Tam Tams are playing,
wounded bear is roaring.
Man outsmarts him with his tomahawk,
but no one conquers the circle of life.

Verse
One bonny day
I kilt me chicken,
Stirred eem inta me pot
For me soup to thicken.
I ate me some Haggis
An a scone or two,
After I kilt me cow
Ta make me stew.
Had ta put down me ol dog
Cause he kilt me ol cat,
Then I dug heem a hole
Way off in da back.
Den I picked up me pipes
And piped a sad lilt,
Wearing me ragged ol Tam
And me dusty ol kilt.

There once was a dingo doer named Jen
who’s nothin but a suckin squawkin hen.
For a tim tam she’ll do
the same nasty to you
with a stroke of her feral tongue and pen!
She’s got a thing for this special dingo
and writes me love poems in my lingo.
With all that sexual tension
she so wants my attention
but beware the rabid dingo innuendo!

PUT YOUR FOOTLE OUT YOUR MOUTH
Fred said
Fred read
Foot itch
Boot stitch
Toe jam
Bo Tam
Stinky socks
Tics-tocks
4 eyes
5 toes
Wear boots
Bare roots
Foot kiss
Root missed
Tasted like
Rusted bike
Walk miles
Talk trials
Said much
Lips touch
yakiti yak!
yakiti yak!
you've done
too much

Au cœur de l’Afrique
Parlent les chutes d’eau
Comme les paroles de nos ancêtres.
Aux rythmes de nos tam-tam
T'els sont les rythmes du songs,
Qui font chanter et danser la nature,
Aux pas de nos danses,
T'els sont les pas de danse de la nature
Qui font pousser les grains de chez nous,
Aux goûts de ces grains
T'el est le goût du couscous
Qui fait notre joie et bonheur,
Ainsi parle la nature
Ainsi va la vie
Ainsi chante la nature.

Free verse
without a rocking-chair in sight
ol' Tam or Tom rules the roost
guarding henhouse since the fox lit out
and the door fell off its hinges
'n' all the hens cackle nervously about
wondering what tale to tell will
Felis catus softly howl tonight
to lull them nestling to defenseless

I shall never wear a tam-o-shanter in Scotland,
Yet I am satisfied for this is all right with me.
I shall never play my tambourine to a crowd of ten thousand,
Yet I am happy for this is all right with me.
An inkling of King Solomon’s wisdom tells me I will never see Saar,
Yet, I am satisfied, for who can see it on Pinterest? Me.
Eventually I will probably see all of this and more from a heavenly catbird seat.
And this is more than enough to make my heart happy.
