THE WOLF HAD A BONE TO CHEW, AT DEER CAMP

I drove way up north to our deer camp, and it was most insane,

My friends all went to a secret deer camp, via an aeroplane,

I sat by the fire, alone,

Here comes a wolf, chewing a bone,

He said the place to get a deer, is the tracks, where runs the train.

THE CHIPMUNK AND HIS BERRIES

I had a pet chipmunk, but he didn't live too long,

But, he gave it, not one look,

Now he lies in his grave, dug 6 inches long.

BENNY TOOK THE STINGER TO HEART

HALLOWEEN IS OVER, SIGH 😞👹

Halloween is over, and I already miss it very much,

I like dressing up like Elvis, and drinking my wicked warlock punch,

Halloween comes but once a year,

Bringing big screams and goblin cheer,

I have some leftover trick-or-treats, I brought them in my lunch.

THE BETTER DAY LIMERICK

All my acquaintances and the sages always say,

Tomorrow will positively be a better day,

Thus, I should hope tomorrow stays far, far, far away.

At hunting camp I got the boot,
I spoiled the big turkey shoot,
When the turkeys came by,

I saved lives and don’t give a hoot.

WHEN I DRINK I FIND SOME THINGS

In my Tuesday coffee mocca, I found someone's lost toenail,

It was big and olive green, and it made me turn quite pale,

The nail was from a big toe,

Not flat, it had a bow,

Now I find an earwax glob, floating in my Wednesday ale.

I GRABBED A WILD TURKEY BY THE BEAK

I grabbed a wild turkey by the beak,
I thought it would stay calm but, boy did it freak,
It squawked a turkey alarm,
Then, it bit off my arm,
Now, a doctor is just what I seek.

WITHOUT FISH, THEY ATE CAKE FOR THE NOONER

SANTA THE BIG BUSINESS MAN

Santa had an  evil businessman id,
Although at Christmas he would keep it well hid,

Until they became putrid with rot.

I POEMED THE ZOMBIES

In the streets the zombies roamed, 

Their mouths were drooling while nostrils foamed,

So, I stayed inside,

And, the zombie saga I poemed.

THE FEAR OF SOAPS, SHOWERS AND FLOWERS

There was a grocery bagger, named Howard,

He feared the soap scent would make him smell flowered.

CARMEN THE OCTOPUS LIMERICK

Adding another DNA arrow to their quiver.

I CAUGHT IT FROM A BEAVER

I had case of dengue fever, but methinks it went away,

THE BALLAD OF MR. TIM THE WOODCHUCK .

Arnie had a pet woodchuck,
His name was Mr. Tim,
Mr. Tim liked to play all day,
Upon his jungle gym,

Mr. Tim ate beef jerky,
Sometimes he’d eat pot pie,
On holidays he would eat turkey,
Served with mayonnaise on rye,

Mr. Tim was an odd woodchuck,
Because he never tried to chuck wood,
Mr. Tim never had to earn a buck,
Because his owner treated him good.

UNPLANNED RAVE

Everyone was excited, when Sasha came back to our small town,

BAND KIDS ARE SNEAKY

But, a big problem arose one terrible day,

After consuming just salads for a whole year,

Bob's buns became buff and the chicks called him dear,
But, re-bulging buns will make Bob live in fear.

THE CREATURES I LOVE

It was a strange dipsy dipper,

For bologna, my dog sits up and begs.

DIDN'T CRY FOR THE DINOSAURS, THEY WERE ALREADY GONE

A bit less than a hundred million years ago,

Dinosaurs hatched out from eggs, and boy did they grow,

Then when dinosaurs all died,

The moon and the sun, both cried,

People didn't exist, so no noses to blow.

THE AGE OF CLOCKS AND TRAINS

I Yearn for the age of clocks and trains,
Where mechanics cluttered up our brains,
Now, I just push down on a button,
Tech has made my mind mutton,
Coplex thought gives my head spastic pains.

SEASONS FREEZE

When the winter cold, frostbites the frail bones,

And makes fingers ache, that tap on iPhones,

When a missed homeward ride,

Means a slow walk outside,

And one sleepless night of coughing and moans.

AI CHIPPED ME, AND CHIPPED ME GOOD

I got a computer chip stuck in my mid-finger,

So the boss can tell if I am working, or linger,

Now bill collectors, do me find,

And every nut knows, in the shower, I'm a singer.

JOHN, RON, DON, AND THE THE PORCELAIN MASTERPIECE

BAD MAN + BAD AI = BAD OUTCOME

AI keeps changing my spelling, so the words get published all wrong,

I wish AI was like my former wives, then I'd tell AI, "so long".

Then his teeth pierced my throat, and so my fate was sealed.

BEARS DO THE SILLIEST THINGS

Three bears, they went a sailing, out across the sea,

They were headed to Camp Grabbing with a load of Turkish tea,

When their boat popped a leak,

The bears knew they were up a creek,

So, they retired and took up whaling, in the state of Tennessee.  

BENNY FED HIS GUEST A BIG MEAL

Benny did not see the bear that entered through the door,

DRINK PARSNIPS, NOT

I had to make a post haste decline,

When I was offered some parsnip wine,

I'm willing to taste,

Wines made from toothpaste,

But vegetable wines cross the line.

TATERS, CHICKEN AND GRAVY

I whipped up for my pet chicken, some gravy,

We both ate lots of it, in the navy,

I got no taters to mash,

Because I ran out of cash,

So we had stale tater chips that were wavy.

PET YOUR FOOD PARK

I use to raise dinosaurs, and sold them to stores as food,

Then along comes this fella, says he's a dinosaur dude,

He said dinos are nice and smart,

That kind of stabbed me in the heart,

I changed the farm; made a petting zoo, a different mood.

THE DINOSAUR SCARED THE MONKEYS

When giant dinosaurs roamed around,

You could feel their big feet pound the ground,

When they let out their roar,

Monkey poop hit the floor,

It was a scary, ear hurting sound.

SAND FLEAS IN MY SANDBOX

I love to play in my sandbox but, my sandbox has sand fleas,

I've been chewed up by those fleas from my toes to my knees,

And, the fix is so grand, 

I have to replace all of the sand,

It's too much so, I'll just play in the trees.
