  • The strangest thing happened

Dancing Zoo 

The strangest thing happened at the zoo

The chimps were dancing and the lions too.

The beat was finally on 

When all the people were gone.

They could teach you a step or two…

Carrot Parrot

Long ago I had a parrot

That was very obsessed carrots.

He’d screech and he’d squawk

In human and parrot talk.

Instead I should’ve gotten a ferret…

The Crapper

Sir Thomas Crapper was his name

Toilets and U joints were his game.

Though his plumbing designs were toilet’s answer

He succumbed too soon to colon cancer.

In memorium the loo now bears his name.

Sir Squonk

Sir Squonk the dilettante was stubborn and true

With no self proclaimed limits to what his mind could do.

This immodest expert on all

Couldn’t tell spring from fall.

As the seasons were not his milieu.

Lady Misery

There once was a lady from town

Whose face always wore a frown.

No humor or concession

Can change her complexion.

She looks like a sad-faced clown…

Dizzy Dan’s Damaged Derelicts 

Dizzy Dan’s thought his buildings, erect

But in the end, there were derelict. 

Cheap material stacked up tall

Cheaper material soon would fall.

Down to their foundation’s defects…

Queen of the Refined 

Shelly was so refined 

She was one of a kind

Gloves and dress 

At McDonald’s no less

When she’s formal she’d unwind…

Harriet Hamster And The Tone Deaf

Harriet Hamster’s conference ran long 

Then many attendees all joined in song 

It ended then quite soon 

As they sang out of tune 

As each note came out wrong…

Thank Hank…

Hank a proctologist was fading fast

His job became a literal pain in the ass

So much to see he’d love to forget

Hemorrhoids and polyps of regret

Now the sun sets on his patients past…

Tripping Tony

Tony was so clumsy he’d always fall

He once took a spill, marching drum and all.

In less than one beat 

He tripped  in the street.

The klutziest snare drummer of them all…
