ODE TO MY SNOW COVERED SHACK ON THE HILL

It even buried two cans of corned beef hash,
All I saved were some pickles; I think they're dill.

Your radiator too,
Is leaking green-blue,
I don't think you'll go very far.

LIVESTOCK AND HEMLOCK

For the main plant found round there,
Ain't corn, apple or pear,
But, the stopper of the chest thumping tick-toc.

BEING DIFFERENT ON THE BOTTOM

Until, I finally healed,
Now, sunbathing is an activity I ban.

THE BIRD BRAIN

A bird was flying right at me,
I wondered what it was,

Then, I guessed it was a sparrow,
Then, I guessed it was a raven,
Then, I was struck down by the arrow.

BRAIN PUDDING

I often say one thing then, do the opposite bit,
Ideas, my mind can't hold,
My brains are pudding I've been told,
But, I'm not the one having a fit.

THE END OF THE UNIVERSE AND ME

What if the universe runs out of time,
Can I still eat my beef that is labeled as prime?

When the universe ends for all these things I will pine,
So, I'll now increase consumption, so at the end I won't whine.

THE HOW DO I VOTE LIMERICK
