Timmy, a cute little shrew,
Wrote limericks smutty and blue,
His rhymes were not 'Chic'
But a bit 'tongue in cheek
That he sent to some poets he knew.
Letters that are sound enhancing
and trippingly through my words go dancing ~
that’s the language that I seek
to get all my verse to speak,
though mostly ~ tongue-in-cheek.
A sinner and saint
Deem equally sacrosanct,
So do the sacred
And profane consecrated,
Is not the path of faith quaint?

Very often write with my tongue in my cheek
Strange saying that is, but when I'm at my peak
My humour is best
Pound away on my chest
Like Tarzan, eat bananas and things that go, “eek!”
A quantum bit of tongue in cheek
The physics of an ad to pique
A trusted name to seal the deals
Stephen Hawking hawking wheels

O, a big burly trucker
got a persimmon pucker.
His mouth shrunk so bad,
he got stuck to a wall.
The doc called Gene Simmons;
though he prefers women,
his tongue-in-cheek kiss
is the cure for it all.
The lines I find pretty chic,
To readers if fail to click,
It is autumn’s leaf brown,
Nor is it curtain down,
A half-cooked goose packed off quick.

What I venture never to dare say,
Humour lets; and there’s no need to pray:
Readers look not askance
And approve it at once,
And as bonus I have it my way.

Let snow come alive
And melt once she does arrive,
Let then so much rain
That she can’t return,
And let things romantic turn,
Life’s some pain, some gain!

Need more fuel to restart my engine
To continue my reign as a poetic legend
Doesn't happen often
A note on my coffin...
“A poetic genius without any question”

If you think what happened was too bad,
Imagine, had he been elected...
Oh four more years of him
On American dream!
Think, world's a small price paid, and be glad.

It's a gorgeous early summer's day outside
What could possibly go wrong 'cept a homicide
They don't happen often
But it does break the boredom
Sad that some soul must pay for our joy to provide
UH, tongue in cheek!
Preaching to the choir
one more like will do
Beating the last dying horse
postings stay as new
I’ll read yours if you’ll read mine
lined up in the queue
I’ll say yes if you agree
— who is kidding who
(The New Room: March, 2024)
One's born with brain inherited,
Or gets made with a lot lifted.
It’s not what can one quote,
How much his be of note,
Or else everyone is gifted!

Still designing stuff at this ripe old age
Keeps me going, keeps me still engaged
On the top of my game
No fortune, just fame
Who woulda guessed I'd be still be all the rage

He set no limit to his ‘always’,
His ‘never’ was strewn all over ways,
Man of excess he was,
To blow up, his pet cause,
For molehills, mount of price he now pays.

Too many words you speak
too much left out there
too much tongue in cheek
too much to share
you want to give a peek
you want us to care
you are the gossip leak
then you check your hair
too many words you speak
too much left out there
Not all cheers come but from cloud nine,
Nor every vintage is good wine,
Nor just in fools’ fiefdom
Fools are fonts of wisdom,
Beware of man’s nerve asinine.

To west lie when things I can't resist,
Ye persuade me to look to the east,
Then haply let me feast
On what I should the least,
O mind thou art monkey, and health a beast.

'Tis noted that some media at times express divisive and jaundiced views!
Hence, such inane twaddle has reputedly become known as fake gnus!
(Written with considerable tongue in cheek and with profuse apologies
to the innocent African antelope known as a gnu!)
Growing up no childhood destroys,
Even grown-ups play with their toys.
Each to own fun at once,
There’s little difference,
Save that, elders glued to their toys get no great joys.

Not a leaf moves, they say, sans His will,
There’s no point trudging on a steep hill.
God smiles, veiling His guile,
Says with a perplexed smile:
Fate is fine but what of your free will?

If only left behind be no proof,
It’s safe then to be the biggest goof.
Tall roofs always amaze,
Who cares how sound’s the base?
Dress matters, who talks of warp and woof?

Thanks indeed great God for small mercies,
Chancy if man has all his wishes.
With just half, he’s doubled
His storehouse that troubled!
What else if wishes are wild horses?

Why waste time at school and still miss the bus
When ignorance is instantaneous!
In this school we call life,
The best teacher seems strife
That gives great lessons, makes none whatso fuss.
