Do not idle by the sign,
Waiting idly for a sign,
That the sign be waiting idly,
For an idler idling mildly,
By the sign,
Waiting idly for a sign,
Of the sign be waiting idly,
For an idler idling snidely,
For a meter maid to sign him,
As an idler idling idly.

Saucy Sally, sits solemnly on said sidewalk,
Stifling sniffles, sees sympathetic staring,
Some snidely shuffling slowly sideways, so
She surreptitiously swallows her sadness.
Studly Sam, strolling six shaggy sheepdogs,
Soon seizes on saucy Sally’s situation, and
Saunters steadily, still standing; swiftly,
Suggests she stifle her sniveling sadness.
Suddenly, she’s sharing six shaggy sheepdogs,
Silently, Sam says, sweet saucy Sally stay.

You villain, you fiend
We booed you each Saturday
When you came on the screen.
We shrieked, and we hollered
For Dudley Do-Right to make short work of you
We loved it when justice prevailed
And your just desserts were due.
Snidely Whiplash
You villain, you fiend.
Capturing Polly Purebred.
You were utterly mean!

I am rooting for Snidely Whiplash
Tie up sweet Nell and give her a gnash.
Silly Dudley Do-Right
Simply isn’t that bright.
Snidely, turn him into cornmeal mash.
Good villain, it is your turn to win.
Wipe off Dudley Do-Right’s ridiculous grin.
Leave her on the tracks
With their clickety clacks
Follow me, Whiplash. Do I hear an Amen?

Poor bug, upside down
Young kids, gathered round
Bug's legs, kicking wildly
Kids laugh, rather snidely...
Kids are naturally kind
Philosophers preach
Read them this poem
Kids like a good laugh too

We always laughed when Bullwinkle said,
Watch me pull a rabbit out of my hat!
He and Rocky of course were the stars,
But there was more to it than that
Boris Badenov was bad enough,
With Natasha Fatale don't you know
If she asked, "Why, only one darlink?"
Boris replied, "Is low budget show!"
Scheming and Preening his slick moustache
Snidely Whiplash, the worst of men
Would tie Nell to the railroad track,
But ended up with, "Curses foiled again!"
Because a Royal Canadian Mountie
Dudley Do-right would do right of course
By saving the fair Nell Fenwick,
But she seemed more enthralled with his horse!
Though we mostly wanted to be outside
Saturday morning was cartoon time
So we would sit still and watch them
Sharing a coke, we bought for a dime!

life is meaningful
when happy and sorrow
hugs it together
and life enjoys these lively
tears spit snidely
since the birth of
life story…..
and
tears rejoice complementarily
since the birth of
life story…..
love when devours thy life fully
then no hate can hurt you
although you are in a distressful kingdom of life

Plan on online purchase?
Well, just click on the reviews.
It helps to hear what people say –
What have you got to lose?
Your mind, perhaps, for you’ll find out
Opinions vary widely,
From those described most glowingly
To others penned most snidely.
The bar graph gives percentages
Of how the ratings fare
So follow the conclusions
Or reject them, if you dare.
For everyone’s impressions
Will be different and distinct
And those who thus ignore them
Will be very soon extinct.

There once was a Mounty named Dudley;
villain, Snidely Whiplash, was ugly.
Dudley would save Nell
from Snidely's dark spell,
then she and his horse would get snuggly!

The raptor and the peacock hence,
Sit pensive on a rambling fence.
The first, inclined to be the host,
Jumped down to claim the nearest post.
The pea averse to snubs or quailing
Moves closer on the weathered railing.
Both immersed in trailing thoughts
Mused on nigh, and what was naught.
The Pea fans its tail in public splendor
Cramped raptor prefers an opposing gender.
He clasps a plume of gleaming thread
To implant it on his own stark head.
On and on, a grueling day
Feathers plucked; cold work at play.
Peafowl’s once featured feathered shafts
Now forlornly bare and subject to draft.
The predacious bird, a cocky thief
Snidely at par, to a native chief.
Clips of sun reveal a shadowy bane
The unlikely pair cast as one and the same
