MYSTERIES IN THE DARK!

MYSTERIES IN THE DARK!

I rolled over in the dark,

Did I just poke a shark?!

It was silky and long,

Though I may be wrong,

 

It moved when I poked,

But then, aloud you spoke,

“Don’t touch my leg,

You silly egg!”

 

And that’s when I knew,

I AM an egg, it’s true,

And that mysteries in the dark

May seem scary, and so stark!   😊

 

There’s one more mystery,

We’ll talk later,

How’d an egg get out

The refrigerator?!   😊

“WHAT DOESN’T KILL YOU”

“WHAT DOESN’T KILL YOU”

When Kelly Clarkson sings,

I love all the joy she brings,

 

But “What Doesn’t Kill You Makes You Stronger,”

I say, couldn’t be “wronger,”

 

What doesn’t kill you may still maim you,

And also “lame you,” but the pain’s the same to you,

 

And “Because Of You,” you’ll be “Thankful” to live longer,

But “Since U Been Gone,” you may not be any stronger,

 

But as Kelly might say,

At the end of the day,

 

I may be croakin’ and pitiful,

But I’m “Broken and Beautiful!”   😊

MONKEY FLEAS AIR FRIED!

MONKEY FLEAS AIR FRIED!

I’m your little chunky monkey,

But I feel a wee bit funky,

 

Scratch and pick my back, please!

I am drowning in fleas!

 

I worry about my complexion,

From my scratching infection,

 

You may eat them, if you wish,

Fleas make a tasty dish,

 

But if I may inspire,

Toast them in your air fryer!   😊

IF I WAS THE RAIN

IF I WAS THE RAIN

If I was the rain,

I’d fall just for you,

And with finesse,

I’d gently caress you, too,

 

If I was the rain,

With each soothing drop,

I’d make all

Of your problems stop,

 

If I was the rain,

Blue birds would sing,

Just think of all

The joy I’d bring,

 

And when my reign

Is running low,

I’d leave, for you,

A bright rainbow!   😊

CASABLANCA GOT IT WRONG!

CASABLANCA GOT IT WRONG!

Casablanca got it wrong

I say, with a sigh,

In its old vintage song,

“As Time Goes By,”

 

The song proclaims,

“A kiss is just a kiss,”

Time and war are to blame,

So, it insists,

 

But I say kisses are timeless,

The world at war be damned,

The song misses the sublimeness

Of love in a jam,

 

So, though Bogie was cool,

In the end, I say,

Bogie was a fool

To let Ingrid get away!   😊
