There once was a squirrel named Smacky,
who snarfed every snack in his shacky.
He stuffed nuts galore,
then scurried for more~
That snack-stricken scamp was so snack-wacky.
Asked the census-taker, at once witty and wacky
Are you two married, or are you happy
We replied, We’re happily married 40 years now
~ For a couple married for 55, that’s a real WOW
Deck the Halls
Whacked the guy that stole my money
Fa, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la!
"Jail's the place for you now, sonny,"
Fa, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la!
"Grant you pardon? Kill that notion!"
Fa, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la!
Toss the key now to the ocean
Fa, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la!
Good King Wencelas
Christmas Day has come around
Let's play Dirty Santa
Where your goodwill won't rebound
We'll just go bananas
Be as cheap as we can be
Spend no more than fiver
And I think we all agree
Everyone's a miser
We Wish You A Merry Christmas
A bad girl I've been
Forgive me my sin
Please don't give me charcoal
For the gift swap this year
air rockets skyward
uppercutting inside
plastic neon flesh
contorting at inhuman angles
what does my body language spell?
ankles anchored into the Earth
to stay grounded as the wave
of time and space crashes
a flood of stagnant flux
there is a symphony of bones
snapping and cracking
in twisted orchestrations
the act of existing for me
is a resilient demonstration
A person with soothing expressions,
Lives each moment of the sessions.
Your heartwarming smile,
shines like twilight .
Always aspire to make others feel happy,
With all your joking and wacky.
Wins every controversy with harmonious peace,
Puts our mind at ease.
Lives the life to its full,
Fights all your dearth with soulful.
You are like a burning candle,
Who ends the darkness & be glamour.
When called for gopias,
Become loopy with your thoughts exotic .
Possess pleasant personality,
With a whole hearted reality.
You spread joy and cheer,
We hold you so dear.
snow and icicles
compete to adorn house roofs ---
white pigeons peep from wall holes
to seep through spruce groves
the sun tries and tries and fails ---
fog spreads his grey pavilion

Cherry tobacco
I knew you were
Here
Glad to see you
So happy
You came here
You got your
Quilt wrapping you
It is kinda cold
Outside
In your rocking
Chair
Hey who's that
Outside
Well I guess
I'll have the soup
Something
To stick
To my bones
Thanks I will be
Going now
Guess I will
Be getting
On home

We giggled on Sue's wedding day
She walked with her dog down the aisle!
Fresh flower bouquet's - so passé
We giggled on Sues's wedding day
Sue held a quirky food bouquet!
Her canine bridesmaid made us smile
We giggled on Sue's wedding day
she walked with her dog down the aisle!

This is without question a most wacky zoo
Reading this poem I'm sure you'll find it true
Have you ever seen baboons with pantaloons
For that matter giraffes dancing to Sinatra tunes
Instead of being the conventional black and white
All the pandas are multi coloured and very bright
The zebras have spots instead of the usual stripes
The lions and tigers play with gusto the bagpipes
So dear friend without doubt you can plainly see
The zoo is wacky I'm sure with me you agree
Visit it and I'm sure that you will also find
This wacky zoo is certainly one of a kind
I went searching for hattie pattie
But found scarfy larfy
With a pin
Moved on to henny penny
Who said the sky was fally wally
Ate food at banky linky
But it tasted like stinky stinky
Threw up all over pinky kinky
Went home to slinky hinky
But the bed kept spinny linny
I can tell that the stars are unhappy
and I know why the moon's acting crabby
‘cause they know you won't call
And it's bothering us all
I'm sorry that I behaved badly
The day won't go on without you
The clouds have been crying all day
I've expressed my regrets
please forgive and forget
‘cause even Alexa's gone wacky
Here's some wacky names, my doctor is Liam Crummy
Barb Dwyer, Seymour Legg, Stan Still, and Terri Bull, really funny
If you want more here's others to avail
Ima Kettle, Dan Druff, Rusty Nails
Can't imagine what their parents called their puppy
Here are some wacky names, my doctor is Liam Crummy
Barb Dwyer, Seymour Legg, Stan Still, and Terri Bull, really funny
If you want more here's others to avail
Ima Kettle, Dan Druff, Rusty Nails
Can't imagine what their parents called their puppy
