I frequently make up silly songs
as I go about my day
- does that sound wrong?
Peter’s quite used to it.
Sometimes he sings along
when he sees fit.
It should be mentioned
that I have an awful voice
there have been singing interventions
I’m sorting my closet
one of the tasks on my
get ready for school docket
(*singing*)
“Look at me
I’m as helpless as a lobster up a tree
and if you
ignore the smell
i’m doing swell
feeling frisky
and so much in lovvvvve
Look my way
and as long as your not driving
it’s ok
in fact
it’s just as well
cause I bet you can tell
that I’m frisky
and so much in lovvvve”

A song for this:
Silly Love Songs by Paul McCartney
silliness, songs, boyfriend, voice, humor
#1
Building a
cat's
cradle from
simple
dimpled
spheres only
reinforces the
necessity of
de-
signing se-
cure
multifarty
symptoms to
en-
sure stealth-
care rapacity with
min-
imal ex-
posure.
#2
Drastic baggy
hags in spew-colored double
schlock wastelands are
even now sporting un-
even tooth alignment
and con-
genital blight po-
sitioning for more dead
products with patriotic
names such as
"Poke Her in the Crypt" and
"Wicked Slim Pickings".
Each Age for silliness
Laughed back on is.
By its more sophisticated
Time-successor.
Itself the butt, to be
Of the same joke:
"Rusty, fusty; too slow; sombre.
And more; a bore!"
I went to the Co for shopping
Their food box got my brain popping.
It was a huge puzzle
great fuss and much fuzzle
to save my wrist from a chopping!
jibble jabble jingle John
kibble kabble kingle kong
libble labble lingo long
mibble mabble mingle mon
pibble pabble pingo pom
quibble quabble quingo quon
ribble rabble ringo ron
simple silliness sometimes turns me on
Tickle my fancy
tickle my toes
tickle my funny bone
(both elbows)
put a smile in my life
a laugh let me hear
place a grin on my face
(from ear to ear)
tell me a joke
it's chuckles I seek
give me a giggle
(tongue in cheek)
play me a prank
let silliness spark
say something funny
(just for a lark)
ape me a caper
do it in jest
monkey around
(buffoonery's best)
when crying with laughter
can't take any more
I'll do it for you
(rolling on the floor)
An army of mites reside in our lashes
With mouths and tiny claws
Along the road to human evolution
This was surely a major flaw
Astronauts strangely can't burp in space
What useless dribble is that
Felines can have over one hundred kittens
Now that's one pooped out cat
Some atheists put up Christmas trees
An identity crisis for sure
A cow can poop up to four tons a year
That's sure a big batch of manure
A woman once had sixty-nine children
Talk about barefoot and pregnant
With a dirty big bunch of kiddies like that
She could hold her own beauty pageant
Nose prints are used to identify dogs
Imagine if they used those for humans
Especially during the influenza season... yuk!
There'd be snot all over the policeman
The salary of Toto in “The Wizard Of Oz”
Was a hundred twenty dollars a week
That's a hundred and twenty dollars more than me
Since retiring, my new job is sleep
The tallest people in the world are the Dutch
Must duck underneath the windmills
While kissing, most tilt their head to the right
But there's some who rub noses still
How can someone draw a blank
Now that's a real poser
How d'ya know if it's new and improved dog food
Eating that stuff's not kosher
Are there seeing eye humans for blind dogs
Sounds quite logical to me
If the Energizer Bunny attacks someone
Is it charged with battery
Is it true that cannibals don't eat clowns
Because they taste so funny
If feathers tickle people, do they tickle birds?
Bet it's better than even money
Why does every toaster have a setting
That will burn the toast to a crisp
Can women put on mascara with their mouth closed
Why do holes in most donuts exist
Here's one I'll bet you've never thought of
Do birdies ever need to pee
So perhaps those sprinkles of rain that fall
Aren't really rain 'tween you and me
Why do hot dogs come in packages of eight
While the buns come in packs of ten
Tell me what do they put in for colour of hair
On the driver's license of bald men
Don’t Forsake Me
An interview with a dying tree.
Annie Willow entered my office,
It surprised all of us.
At first glance,
You might think she had no chance.
I inquired to what she would bring,
Something to add, something with zing.
Her wilted leaves and branches,
Just cleared our expansions.
She spoke clear and concise,
I had to think twice.
Years of nurturing and encouraging
My sprouts to grow, is how I learned what I know.
I am great supervisor, A revolutionist,
Working and mentoring I do to subsist.
My credentials speak for me,
Even if I am a dying tree.
While one often feels the strain
Of life’s projects and stress,
One should also break away
For carefree silliness.
seasonal silliness
late winter whimsy
sneaky downpours hit then run ~
season of rainbows
sun and storms play tag
unexpected rain showers ~
frisky thunder storms
clouds play peek-a-boo
drizzles turn to deluges ~
time to plant tulips
wind tickles new leaves
giggles leave dewdrop buttons ~
no more frost freeze tag
raindrops play chopsticks
in rhythmic syncopations ~
equinox mischief

On the driver's license of bald men
My “silliness” hat is atop my head
As I begin yet another day
Who knows where this weird mind of mine
Will take me, who's to say
Could go where no man's tread before
To the outer limits of comedy
On second thought, that's probably not it
Sylvester the Cat is my matey
Thuffering succotash! I'm totally lost
Where's my silliness gene
How could I be so simply darn careless
Silliness is a part of my scene
It defines the jester within my soul
Always been my, “raison d'être”
Betcha you didn't know I was multilingual
No telling how far that'll get ya!
Perhaps the U.N. with its many lingoes
Interpreting the countless speeches
Seems my 'silly' gene is alive and well
Returned from the outer reaches
How can someone draw a blank
Now that's a real poser
How d'ya know if it's new and improved dog food
Eating that stuff's not kosher
Are there seeing eye humans for blind dogs
Sounds quite logical to me

While the buns come in packs of ten
Tell me what do they put in for colour of hair
On the driver's license of bald men
Silliness is a big part of my day
Without it life's filled with clouds of grey
Yay for silliness
A funny business
There's no avoiding this horsie type play
