A Cat With a Knack

I have a cat 
A real fat cat
My cat is all black 
My black fat cat 
It is a cat with a knack
A true fact about my cat
My fat black cat 
She has a knack to catch a rat
My all black cat brought me the rat 
This is why my cat is a fat black cat
So rats watch your back 
From  my cat with the knack
Or you will become a snack for my fat black cat

A Wedding Story

The ink drips from the pen placing the words in a line 
Cherished moments written from a moment back in time
Pondering thoughts come one by one 
Placing the story from where it begun
White satin gown and a neck of pearls 
Long blond hair with sparse of curls
A netted veil eyes shaded in blues 
Blue flowered bouquet and fine white shoes
Vows from the heart rings of gold 
Another page written on the story told 
At the alter her love awaits wearing colors of the same 
Gracefully walking closer to except his name 
A beautiful bride playing out her day of glory 
As the ink drips from the pen to tell her story

Imagine All Over Toilet Paper

To all you varmints
Who like to squeeze the Charmin's
I went to the grocery store one day 
And someone had the Charmin's squeezing away
I said hey what are you doing that for
Like come on right in the store
She looked at me like i was spun
Like it was something i had ever done
So i gave a little squeeze to see how she liked it 
Another women saw me and started having a fit
Hey she said don't do that 
So your the culprit that makes the rolls flat 
Well i was stunned so i said real fast
No she did it first i did it last
I was just trying to teach her a lesson you see
Squeezing the Charmin's that was the first time for me
Well now i had done it i was caught in the act
And i don't squeeze the Charmin's and that's a fact
She twisted my words upside down
Made me look like a total clown
There i was in the middle of a war 
Right in the middle of the grocery store 
The moral to the story is don't squeeze the Charmin's
Their is a lot of people looking for those varmints

Someone Sent Me a Rose

Someone special sent me a rose today
Each rose was a word that touched me in many ways
It told me a story that showed me the most beautiful scene
Of faces of beauty and places i have never been
The words were whispers that called to me
And for that moment from my sorrows i was free
Each rose that fell told me that all beauty comes and goes
But to never forget their is always a new bloom of a rose
For if all this beauty can only be placed in your mind
You have not let all your true inner beauty shine
So to this special someone i thank you so much
For this rose you sent me my heart it truly touched

Good-Bye My Friend

I look outside to see your paw prints among the crystal snow
The perfect markings of your day of play until my friend you had to go 
On the floor lays your ball and your new Christmas toys 
The perfect markings left behind from my friend that brought me joy
In my heart is where i keep you to help me slowly mend
The eternal mark left behind from loosing my trusted friend

You Had Me At Hello

We have been friends for quite awhile 
It started at  hello  followed by your smile 
But your one time presence wasn't enough 

So i tried again and you made it tough
So i left it alone i let it go 
Now here i am just to let you know 
I saw you again  just the other day 
I was lost for words but thats okay 

I know were differant in many ways 
I thought  with a life time  you thought with days
But all isn't lost a friendship was to gain
holding the time we had and the maybes that remain
All and all my friend i want you to know 
You would loose me at goodbye because you had me at hello

No One the Same

A lady bug sat on a a leaf one day
When a long came a centipede that asked her to play
No no i couldn't do that 
Play with a centipede imagine that
What would flying bugs say seeing us together
They would laugh and laugh forever and ever
The little centipede was very upset 
Being treated bad from everyone she met
Why don't i have friends do i look bad 
hanging her head ever so sad 
No said the lady bug your just differant to the eye
You don't have wings and cannot fly 
Well you don't have lots of legs like i do 
I have twenty you have two
Well said the lady bug you know that's true 
Were not really differant me and you 
Were both bugs that all humans call pests
Lets be friends in spite of the rest

Always

She laid upon a red satin cover 
Beside her laid her grief stricken lover
His tears were silent as it was hard to discover 
For his love had died in the arms of another
The music plays from the heavens that hover
The angels await to take them together

Teenagers

I would bet a wager 
That many can relate 
For if they have teenagers
You may think you met your fate
Well let me tell you about mine
Sometimes they make me spin
Walk a really fine line 
Cause most times i just cant win
Its not hard to put things away
You had no trouble taking it out
Clean it up i always say
 i am sure you know what that's about
 Its a death trap in there room
It doesnt bother them never the less
They just put that web cam on zoom 
So all can see the mess
I try to make them see 
That really cleaning isn't hard 
And happier they would make me 
But it slides over there head like lard

Take Me

tranquil moment in the dark of night 
Arms embrace me to the come of light
Shadow me in a lovers fashion
Bringing me to the peak of passion
Never to be gone from this feeling 
To ever love in this sexual healing
Forever this passion is my one and only
Embraced together to never be lonely
As are eyes meet and are bodies shake 
All my strength i let him take 
Now the dawn peeks through from the nights end
Clothes less bodies now sleep to mend
