Doing the Chicken SplashSo, you turned on the news,
and it gave you the blues,
and you almost hurled,
at who's leading the free world,
and your teeth are grit tight,

Counting SheepThere once was a man who found sleep
Through enumeration of sheep.
Not those in his head,
But roaming instead,
He’d census the sheep in his keep.

Peek-A-Boo Who’s Looking At Youpeek-a-boo who’s looking at you
the book on a shelf is calling
the carrot makes eyes
the watermelon cries
and the dog juggles balls in the morning
peek-a-boo who’s shouting to you
the hot air balloon is thinking
there’s a mole on the roof
with cream on his tooth
and the downstairs toilet is winking
peek-a-boo who’s waving to you
the tree on the corner is...

How to save an ice cream cone
Band aids just won't do!
Hold the cone upside down,
Let the drops fall around.
Catch each one with your tongue!
Until the cone lets go.
Then right before the end,
Bite it off!
Too get...

Counting On Change

Wanted to shave all his hair.

Would look to different without any hair.

Bug Eyes
The fly swatter is out,
Bugs are all about.
How could that be,
What I see?
Has many legs.
Not a spider,
Or a fly.
But something fanciful on the eye!
Swatted quick...

Sculling Two-SeaterThere’s something mysterious;
I hope it’s not serious:
my muse will not write when I row.
She’s no river daughter;
it’s time that I taught her
that water and words can both flow.
Bereft of her musing,
the rhymes are confusing;
ideas just don’t spring to mind.
Who cares where she’s headed?
My abs are now shredded;
my lats and my quads well defined!
Alas, to entreat...

To See HerSo.
Time to see her.
At 2:48pm.
Wake up (4:00).
Constant strutting.
Nails chewed.
Overthinking.
Stress-eating.
2 hour shower.

4 kilograms of Dad's cologne.

ROAD TRIP
Let us take a road trip,
now off with bags and zip.
Snow covers the wide road,
no grass here to be mowed.
Cow riding the tractor,
is it a huge actor?...

Innocence AboundsNot me nor I sure to have an alibi
if I am lying than I am trying
To be as honest as circumstances show
Stretch the facts as truth as posed
not guilty for my innocence abounds
Trust evidence scarce but profound
All and all all is the same
Might, maybe, sorta looking sad
facts lean fiction, good looks bad
What ever is can...

Why the Rooster CrowsThe reason the rooster will crow,
Is not just to offily show.
The sun hits its beak,
Which it thinks unique,
And proudly lets all the world know.

The Octopus and the GerbilThe octopus sometimes forgets
Its suckers when gerbils it pets.
It sticks to its arm,
Then falls, to some harm,
Which both of them deeply regrets.

The Hunting of Boojumous SnarksThe hunting of Boojumous Snark,
It ain't but no kind of a lark.
It's best to wear lead,
From toes to the head,
And aim 'twixt the eyes with a quark.

Hands of Goo
The smeary fingers,
Left unwashed.
Leave prints,
All over the gloss.
On bright metal handles,
Drawers semi closed.
Up and down walls,
Even on a nose.
Momma said, "Wash your hands!

When blown from its course, summer's done.
That wasn't quite true,
Was maybe coo-coo,
But thinking about it is fun....
