THE HANSEL AND GRETEL HOODS TALE

Hansel and Gretel went out into the woods,

They went to steal the witch's fresh cookie goods,

But they weren't so lucky,

They were educated in Kentucky,

And tracked the wolf from the Red Riding Hoods.

WHEN THE BEAR BENDS

Bears like to eat people, that's why I have no friends,

My friends went into bear bellies, and came out in piles of twists and bends,

So I decided to befriend bears,

One of my gravest errors,

Now I'm a pile in the forest, and that's where my story ends.

A BANANA MUTED MY TOOT

My trumpet, I tried and tried to make toot,
It didn't work because it was stuffed with a fruit,
It seems my dear nanna,
Didn't like her banana,
The fruit fit my trumpet but not grandpa's flute.

I MET A MONSTER AT THE BARE BEACH

I went to the beach, but nobody was there,

Except for a monster, looking vicious with scare,

I asked, "where'd everyone go?"

The monster replied, "I don't know!

I ate all swimmers, that's why the beach is so bare"

I WENT EXTINCT FEEDING A BEAR

My species went extinct today,

Now I have no one with whom to play,

I found a bear,

But he didn't care,

He ate and swallowed me anyway.

THE SHARKS I CAN LIVE WITH

My swimming pool is all full of sharks,

One snapped at my dog, now my dog bark, bark, barks,

The family disappeared,

I found it quiet and weird,

But I got the house to myself from the dawns through the darks.

WORMS AND BUGS AND PORK AND BEANS, I SCHEMED

I have been looking for pork sausage all day,

It's pricey, and I can't cover it with my low pay,

But with worms and katydids

I'll ground sausage for the kids,

I schemed me pork and beans, but it gang aft a-gley.

PARTYING WITH THE SUPERNATURALS

When the hobgoblins were about to sing,

I knew the elf evils would do their thing,

It was sort of a dance,

Maybe, more of a prance,

Then the black bell in the gnome cathedral, would ring.

MY SISTER GIVES HAIRCUTS

My sister gives haircuts, oh dear, oh dear,
She'll steady her hand for a six pack of beer,
Or when she gets through,
You'll know nightmares come true,
Unless,  away from your reflection you steer.

TODD BOUGHT A CASTLE LIMERICK

                                         
Todd bought an old castle big and gray,                       But, it was drafty and dirty so, his wife wouldn't stay,   She rode off with the horse,                                         The two got a divorce,                                            Now, Todd has castle parties all night and all day.

THREE LITTLE SHREWS

There were three little shrews,
They tried wearing each others shoes,
One shrew’s feet were too fat,
Another shrew’s feet were flat,
The third shoved size four feet into twos.

DEMON SIT

There were old devils in the pit,

And they were taken a demon sit,

They cast their spells,

On Cosmic elves,

Then once done, they split.

THE CHICKEN COUP RETIREMENT FUND

I have a chicken coup full of trash bags, full of cans,

It's my retirement, and I have really big plans,

Down at the town called Old Hollars,

I'll convert them to a fist full of dollars,

Then I'll buy me a new set of pans.

SQUIRREL POX AND THE EMPIRE OF SQUIRREL

The squirrels took over the world,

They spread disease, and all humans hurled,

The plague did humans in,

It was biology, not sin,

With humans gone, the squirrel flag was unfurled.

I CAUGHT SOME PHOTONS WITH MY NOSE

I caught some photons on my nose,

They burned real bad like no one knows,

My sunscreen failed,

The SPF bailed,

Now I suffer with nose woes.

PETER PAM, FRIEND FAILURE

In high school I knew Peter Pam,

He got good grades because for tests he'd cram,

But when it came to being nice,

His comments would deep slice,

So he got an "F" on the friendship exam.

HOW DICK AND SALLY EAT

Sally was an herbivore,
She ate bark and twigs and leaves,
She tried eating a wild boar,
That gave her stomach heaves,

Her boyfriend Dick really loved to eat,
He ate until his belly was soar,
But, Dick ate no plant food, he only ate meat,
Dick was a raging carnivore,

When Dick and Sally had a son,
Both of their feelings were slightly tore,
They were glad their child was having fun,
But, he was a voracious omnivore.

A JOB OR A DITCH, I MUST CHOOSE WHICH

Slushy snow is all I know, and the world has turned to ice,

On icy roads I cannot go for my tires have caught ditches thrice,

I'll soon be on skidrow,

If I pay for one more tow,

But, if I skip work I'll suffer woe since my boss is not so nice.

MY DEER HUNTING RIFLE WOULD NOT SHOOT

My deer hunting rifle would not shoot,
When I pulled the trigger it went "Toot!  Toot!"
So, I guess this year,
I'll just drink beer,
And, earn my title as an old coot.

MY RIVER DANCE

I went to do a river dance, and I almost drowned,

The river swept me off my feet, and twisted me round and round,

Then when I thought my body was free,

I was 14 miles out to sea,

I screamed and hollered until sharks came, when they left I made no sound.
