Book Me!

When I need a break from this hectic world,

I like sit and read.

Whether in my chair or in the woods,

It’s good, my brain to feed.

Saving Money

Ninety degrees and using a fan at home,

You just have to know how to position her.

I’ve made it through April for the very first time,

Still not using that dang air conditioner!

Invitation to the Blues

When drinking, one should really know better,

You’re all alone, feeling like nothing belongs.

That you shouldn’t be up until 3 AM,

Listening to albums of very sad songs.

How We Tried!

As a young man, to impress the ladies,

I mastered many tricks.

The most successful of them all,

Eating M&M’s, only using chopsticks.

Many Parts of the Pine Tree

To those who loved and lived in nature,

Like Marlin Perkins and old Euell Gibbons,

Bet they never witnessed wildlife quite as fierce

As Sammy chasing ribbons.

Before Breakfast

Birds are singing, the sun is peeking,

Windows are open for the sweet, cool breeze.

I’m lying in bed with a purring kitten, thinking

Sunday mornings are made for these…

One of Those Days

Rain has stopped, it’s a beautiful day,

Sunshine so bright that the clouds can’t hide.

A day like today was made for having fun!

But I can’t stop my crying inside.

Eat, Sleep, Purr

Anger, depression, misery and cruelty,

We’ve had all we can take of that.

Wouldn’t life be much more pleasant,

If everyone behaved like a cat?

Lad, ye best take back those words you said,

Before your blood is split.

For I’ll only tell ye just one last time,

It’s not a skirt, tis a kilt!

Shakespeare Boogie

It is said that all the world’s a stage.

If true, the path becomes quite clear,

Best y’all get out of the way because,

My big solo dance number goes right here.
