MY HOLIDAY TRAVEL GUIDE

I went to England to visit some kings,

But they were all busy doing important things,

I had me a draft,

Got back on my raft,

Paddled back to New England for a meal of hot wings.

WATCH OUT FOR P BEARS THIS WINTER

There was a polar bear in my yard,

He was eating my neighbor, Mr. Gerard,

When the white bear was done,

He ate Gerard's son,

That hit grandma Gerard really hard.

THE WINTER APOCALYPSE HAS WINNERS

In the post-winter apocalypse the snowmen win,

They don't have to worry about frozen dead skin,

The whirlwinds of ice and snow,

Only makes the snowmen grow,

The snowmen hunt for humans for a frozen snowman din.

DEREK THE DRUMMER DID DRUM

Derek the drummer, did drum everyday,

He would drum most of the time, since his mom passed away,

When Derek got tired,

He would just get rewired,

By playing pinball at the coffee cafe.

WHEN I LOSE, I KNOW I'VE BEEN CHEATED

In the backseat of a Ford,

I play checkers on a board,

With Brother Jim,

And Sister Kim,

I lost, "you cheated", I roared.

STICKY BOY, BILLY

Billy applied his sticky salve and creams,

So Billy could sleep sound, and have nice dreams,

Or else he'd itch,

Toss and twitch,

And have nightmares of eating salad greens.

THE LIFE OF RED PAINTER

I sleep best at night if I have some beer, and am very well fed,

Then I watch tv shows full of zombies, known as the undead,

I say night, night to the dog,

Then we each snore, like a hog,

I work next day as a barn painter, and paint mostly with red.

SANTA HAS A PROBLEM

Santa has no toys this year, because he had no money to pay,

So he bought some discounted rhubarb, then he loaded up his sleigh,

So every good little boy or girl,

Will get some rhubarb to make them hurl,

Because Santa loves online poker, and he can loose all day.

HARRY PLAYED 13 HOLE HARMONY

Harry didn't like playing harmony, but that's all they'd let him do,

Although, Harry was acclaimed at playing the 13 hole kazoo, 

Melody was for the 1st strings,

Harmony for the other things,

So Harry organized a union, now melody he plays too.

SOMETIMES MOZART HELPS, SOMETIMES MOZART DON'T

Ron sat on the toilet while listening to Mozart,

Ron thought through osmosis, it would make him real smart,

Ron had a chemistry test,

Yet, if Ron did his best,

He'd still end up growing old at an all night gas-mart.

SANTA LEFT TIM NO SURPRISE

Santa Claus left Tim no surprise,
Because Tim makes up stuff, then tells big lies,
Maybe Tim will now learn,
Lies are Santa's concern,
And, presents are for truth-telling guys (and gals).

I’M JUST A POOR HILLBILLY BEER DRINKING SLOB

I live in a trailer the county is about to condemn,
I wake up each morning with my lungs full of phlegm,
My girlfriend left me for a man with a job,
She said I was just a hillbilly beer drinking slob,

I can’t work computers or barely a phone,
And, the state IRS just won’t leave me alone,
I got no money for lawyers, so they know I’m easy to rob,
Because I’m just a poor hillbilly beer drinking slob,

I can’t pay any rent; soon I’ll be out in the cold,
All my stuff to the pawn shops, I’ve already sold,
If I had a beer, over my beer I would sob,
For I’m just a poor hillbilly beer drinking slob.

MY FORTUNE TOLD FOR A TIP

My psychic with a single card flip,
Said I should be leaving a much larger tip,
She said my penchant for being cheap,
Put the spirit world fast asleep,
And, my fortunes would soon take a dip.
 

BAD MEAT SUBSTITUTE DUMPED INTO A STEW

My plant based protein tasted like glue,

I shouldn't have bought it, but who knew?

I fried it in a pan,

It turned brown from tan,

I mixed it with veggies, now I call it a stew.

I'VE GOT A RESIDENCE, FOR NOW

It was a little house on a big  city lot,

No one was home, so I decided, make a squat,

I lived there a whole year,

Then happened, my worst fear,

Home came the owners, so I'm in jail on a cot.

THE HOEDOWN WEDDING BLUES

The fiddle played high and the banjo went low,

The five string guitar strummed an off key doe,

And, the drums sounded wrong,

The beat for another song,

It was a hoedown wedding that was lacking it's HOE,

Hopefully, the hoedown wedding will not the marriage define,

For instead of serving beer we got an herbal green tea wine,

And, for bathrooms we needed more,

In the corners; damp was the floor,

Avoiding this hoedown was a choice I grew to pine,

Finally, the music ended and the guests all went away,

The band thought they played splendid as they collected up their pay, 

I wished the couple well as they drove off toward the moon,

I stayed to help with cleanup, so the hall could lockup soon,

Another successful hoedown wedding; as for the marriage, we must pray.   

THE PERFORMANCE MATTERS LIMERICK

I turned my term paper in too late,

Instructor said, it would seal my fate,

My grades were too low,

So home I would go,

I suppose with the folks, I'll have a debate.

TERMITES DID A NUMBER ON MY SNOWBOARD

Looking at the snow I did ponder,
That I could snowboard way out yonder,
But, my ponderings were a bust,
Termites made my board dust,
So, all the days of snow I must squander.

THE CHOICES FOR GOAT: CHEESE OR A COAT

I like goat cheese so much that I got me a goat,

He chewed a hole in my tin boat, now it don't float,

He's eyeing my new truck,

But he is out of luck,

I like the feel of leather, and I need a new coat.

CHICKEN FEET ARE BARELY BETTER THAN CHICKEN FINGERS

I had some chicken fingers but, I should have had chicken feet,

Then, when that bear came along he would not have had me to eat,

My feet were defiant like a crows,

My feet stood firm to oppose, 

So, like chicken fingers I became just another meat.

KEEPING COWS FEELING SAFE INCREASES MILK PRODUCTION

I fenced in the barnyard to keep out the big cats,

I plugged the holes in the barn to thwart entry by bats,

Although, their emotions they hid,

The cows loved what I did,

Milk production has increased, so say the new stats.

THE TWEEN

In a blinky of one big eye,

A thousand years go bye, bye, bye,

I feel just that old,

And look it, I'm told,

I just turned 12, and wonder why?

PIGS AND RHUBARB PIE

Someone mean hurt my pigs, when they fed them rhubarb pie,

Their bellies swelled up so much, it made my pigs all cry,

I pilled each pig with anti-gas,

Within a minute, their pain did pass,

I'll find out who hurt my pigs, and then I'll ask them why.

MY ONLINE LIFE WAS OVER

I went to social media, and found that I'd been blocked,

It was very upsetting, and I was verily shocked,

I browsed around seeking revenge,

By the gods of old Stonehenge,

But everywhere I went, I was already blocked, ergo mocked.

BE CAREFULL WHO MAKES THE S'MORES

My friends insist that my Smores, just don't taste so good

I had no marshmallows, so I subed a piece of wood,

Everyone got awfully sick,

But the ambulances were quick,

The judge says I can't cook again; that was understood.

THE TAINTED LEMONADE LIMERICK

MY LEMONADE STAND

The lemonade I sold was not from good juice,

My customers complained that their bowls got too loose,

And, one lady fainted,

Then, called my lemonade tainted,

I ran off when I saw the crowd with the noose. 

SANTA DOES NOT LIKE TO SHARE WITH ELVES

While old Santa eats roast venison, we elves are eating snow,

Santa licks on candy canes; a taste we elves will never know,

Santa is all grins and smiles,

Santa has smart PR wiles,

Old Santa is very greedy, and he causes elves great woe.

BILLY THE VOMITEER

Sammy chewed and chewed his food, and he chewed it very well,

Billy did not chew his food, and it made his tummy swell,

Soon the tummy gurgled nasty,

Billy had an up-chuck blasty,

Billy got to stay home from school, and that made Sammy yell.

I AM NOT A WICKED WITCH, BUT I CAN BE PRETTY EVIL

For seven years, seven months, seven weeks, seven days, and seven hours,

I filtered through the internets, to gain my great magical powers,

If someone bugs me, they get a curse,

And soon they're riding in a hearse, 

And, all the maidens named Rapunzel, I've locked away in magic towers.

THE CHICKEN LIST

I did not make a "bucket list" of things I have enjoyed,

Instead I made a "chicken list" of things I would avoid,

I avoided things with claws,

And big teeth in their jaws,

I wouldn't go outside, if someone was playing with their droid.

SANTA AND HIS LIFE OF CRIME

Santa has many presents to get, and Tuesday is Christmas Day,

So Santa went down to the mall, and quickly loaded up his sleigh,

This year Santa's funds are running low,

His reindeer meat sales are really slow,

At the Mall Santa got picked up by cops, because he failed to pay.
