Sammy Likes Musicals

Posted on May 21, 2023 by Mystertim

Standard

Listening to music today,

From angelic to quite nefarious.

So glad the sun is dawning on,

The Age of Aquarius!

Might be Monsters

Standard

Time is a wily opponent,

Who has been sneaking up on me.

Late last night I heard some creaking,

Was it the house or was it me?

She Follows

If you’re a fuzzy little kitten

You are probably in my chair.

I would like to have a seat,

But I really don’t know where.

Issa López for the Win

Posted on May 7, 2023 by Mystertim

Standard

When the odds are so far against me,

And my bravado feels more like a charade.

I dig deep to my inner kitten because

Sammy, like tigers are not afraid.

Should’ve Slept In

Posted on April 29, 2023 by Mystertim

Standard

I ran all my errands in the pouring rain,

With the sky being dark as night.

Arriving home, I put the groceries away,

And see the sun is shining bright!

A Million Dollars

Posted on April 22, 2023 by Mystertim

Standard

Give me a million dollars,

And I will go away.

Give me a million dollars,

And away from here I’ll stay.

Cuz I’m so very very tired,

Don’t want to work no more.

Give me a million dollars,

And watch me walk right out that door.

No more working for a boss,

Who doesn’t really care

If I live or die,

As long as he gets his share,

Of that money he makes off my back,

I’m working like a dog.

Give me that million dollars,

And get me out this fog.

If I had a million dollars,

I’d buy myself a car.

Don’t know where I’d go,

But I’d drive so very far

Away from here,

You won’t see me round no more.

Give me that million dollars,

I’m sick of being poor.

If I had that million dollars,

I’d get that tasty food,

You know that my sweet lady,

Would always be in the mood.

Having a million dollars,

Would be a brilliant scheme,

But I ain’t got a million dollars,

So I guess it’s all a dream.

I ain’t got a million dollars,

But I guess I still can dream.

Beans for Supper, Again

Posted on April 16, 2023 by Mystertim

Standard

Was going to make some rabbit stew,

But I didn’t have a rabbit.

Asked Sammy to go and catch us one,

She said, “Catch it yourself!”

Dagnabbit.

Good Luck Charm?

Standard

Can’t find any jelly beans,

Or colored eggs, that’s funny.

You don’t suppose it’s really true,

About Sammy and the Easter Bunny?

I Keep Trying

Posted on April 1, 2023 by Mystertim

Standard

Sammy and Daddy race up the stair,

Having only two legs, Daddy thinks it unfair.

That Sammy always wins, so to his despair,

Dad only gets to sit on the edge of the chair.

It was snowing all this morning,

Making us chilly, little kittens.

This afternoon it is over fifty,

So Sammy put away her mittens.
