Yardman Poems | Examples


Premium MemberThe Yardman

A little old lady named Judy,
Hired a yard man 'cause he was a cutie.
Soon weeds they were thriving, plants barely surviving,
'Cause he didn't know pansies from patooties.

The yard man had to say Bye Bye,
'Cause he mixed fertilizer with soap lye.
He burned up the yard, she booted him hard,
And he ran out the gate on the fly.

Cleanness, As Somebody Said Once

Cleanness, as somebody said once ,
Not where they clean, but where they do not crap,
And our yardman vigilantly  at the entrance,
Walks around with  a huge scary club.

Nice to watch, how he - with congenital grace,
For the slightest piece of paper or a mote,
Trying hard,  with a skewed  embittered face,
To strangle a guilty tenant by a throat.

Barking can not  be  heard, do not meow cats,
Such  cleanness around and grace, and numbs,
Even birds in the district- a glance can not catch,
Only in the grass teeth whitened crumbs.
