For the cake was crawling with bugs.

But, when the smoke cleared the robbers weren’t there.

And, hide it in one of their holes.

GRANDMA MARGE

I had a grandma named Marge,
Grandma Marge was not very large,
In fact, she was very small,
But, when all the chips were flat down,
She'd turn upside down your fat frown,
For her heart was real wide and real tall.

ODE TO JERRY THE SNOW TURTLE

Jerry was a snow turtle,
He did not like the sun,
It was only in the winter,
That Jerry had any fun,

Jerry liked to snowboard,
He liked to downhill ski,
Jerry’s shell was completely white,
This made him hard to see,

Once when racing downhill,
With five snowboarders on his tail,
Jerry had a dreaded spill,
And was chopped up like first class mail,

Everyone mourned the loss,
Of the turtle who could ski a loop,
For on the slopes he was the boss,
In the kitchen he’s turtle soup.

A FUN FILLED EVENING FOR TWO (DATE NIGHT)

Beneath its cover we'll creep,

To seek food like leaf worms or green mold.

So instead of flight I'll just eat berry pie.

POEM RECIPE FOR FRIED GREEN TOMATOES

I make fried green tomatoes,
Sometimes with fried potatoes,
I slice them thick or thin,
Different tastes for different kin,

I dip them in the egg,
I dip them in the flour,
I turn on the stove,
I crank up the power,

When puffed up and golden browned,
That’s the best taste I have found,
There’s nothing better on Puget Sound,
Than fried green tomatoes all around.

WENDEL ATE TOO MUCH WHOOPEE WEED

Wendel was a poisoned frog,
He ate too much whoopee weed,
He'd be fine if he just ate the stalks,

Because his skin was always green,
They thought Wendel had just caught a buzz,
Until he coughed up half his spleen,

Now he is o.k.
He just had a three day headache,
Whoopee weed he avoids today.

Before I go to school I sup soup made of bean,

Before I go to school I brush my teeth clean,

Before I go to school I swab my ears, so obscene,

Before I go to school to my kin I talk mean,

Before I go to school my shoes I will tie,

Before I go to school I promise dad that I'll try,

Before I go to school I tease my brothers, they cry,

Before I go to school I tell everyone bye.

THREE GEESE WENT TO A PARTY

Three geese went to a party,
They had too much to drink,
They picked a fight with three bad skunks,
And, really made a stink,

Three geese were taken to the jail,
For starting a big fight,
Because they were geese they had no bail,
This gave the judge delight,

The judge offered the geese jail for a year,
Or they could be hung off the big willow,
Or the gesse could leave court without a fear,
For the fine of one feather pillow,

The three geese sit in their little pond,
Naked and shivering cold,
Leaving the pond to drink and party,
Was just a little too bold,

Maybe, it's best to find adventure at home,
And, play video games and fish,
Maybe, they should not leave and roam,
Just trade cable for a new dish.
