Do you have a short Poem to share?
 
A poem that has stayed with me many years. A wise ole owl, sat in the oak. The more he saw, the less he spoke. The less he spoke, the more he heard. Can we be like the ole wise bird

I have two favorites by Ogden Nash. Both famous and both funny

The Cow: The cow is of the bovine ilk; One end is moo, the other, milk.

Candy: Candy is dandy; liquor is quicker.

Fleas

Adam had 'em

There once was a young lady named bright
Whose speed was much faster than light
She set out one day
In a relative way
And returned on the previous night.

There once was a fellow from Boston.

Who drove around town in an Austin.

He had room for his ass

And a gallon of gas But his earrings hung out, and he lost ‘em

My childhood favorite.

The first mates name was Carter,
My God he was a farter,
When the wind wouldn't blow, and the ship couldn't go,
They had Carter the farter too start her.

There was a lovely young lass

Who had the most wonderful ass.

Not rounded and pink

As you probably think - -

It was gray, had long ears, and ate grass.

I like to sit in my recliner, and watch television.

There once was a man from Cass.

He had two balls made out of Brass.

In stormy weather, he rubbed them together

and Lightning Shot Out Of His Azz! :faint: :1rotfl:

We are the Lightning Capital of the World! :boom:

There once was a lady from Nices

Who had breasts of two different sizes

On was so small, it was nothing at all

The other was so big it won prizes

What a funny little bird a frog are.
When he run, he hop most.
When he sit, he squat most.
And he ain’t got no tail at all hardly most.

Can’t think of one but thanks for the thread! Have laughed all morning. God Bless

I've never seen a purple cow
And never hope to see one
But I can tell you here and now
I'd rather see than be one!
