THE SKY IS BLUE

I was thinking one day
of what to do
when I noticed a pie
that happened to be two.
I tasted a pie
and let me tell you
it tasted like cheese balls
from Kalamazoo.
I picked up those pies
and looked at my shoes
then suddenly realized
the sky was blue too.
THE END.

THE ORANGE SOCK

I once found a rock
in the shape of a clock.
Just sitting it was
by a herd or a flock.
I looked at the sheep
and then to my smock
I said to myself
"I don't need any rock!
What I really am needing
is a big orange sock."
THE END.

THE BOUNCY BED

I once had a bed
as bouncy as lead.
And one fine winter
I used it for a sled.
As I slid on my bed
I bumped Mr. Ned.
But when he fell down
he jumped up and said
"Say there, young man
don't wreck your old bed!
Sell it to me
for one hundred instead!"
After taking the money
he paid for my bed
I said to myself
"He's hit his dear head."
THE END.

The grass is long.
So I mow the lawn,
which is not wrong.
My clock goes dong.

(UNFINISHED STORY)

Along I went
until I came to a gate.
There was a man there
who checked his slate.
He let me in,
which turned out to be great.
For through that gate
was a much better fate...

There once was an old man
who lived in the past.
Out of seventeen brothers
he was the last.
He worked day and night
on a ship with a mast.
When running full sail
it went very fast.
Out on the water
he would work on his cast.
As he was fishing
he heard a great blast.
So he went home.
THE END.

COW

There once was a Cow
that lived by a plow.
She always had fun
if she went out to run.
She was running one day
when she found some nice hay.
It tasted so yummy,
she filled up her tummy.
Then the Farmer said "Cow!"
"You come back right now!"
So she returned to her plow
where she's likely right now.
THE END.

THE SEAL OF KIEL

By the city of Kiel
there lived a small seal.
He swam in the sea
without reason to flee.
Then along came a boat
with a man in a coat.
But then the boat sank
with the seal to thank.
For he needed a home on the floor.
I'd rescue the man
but my poem is no more. =)

A pig went home to eat.
But the house there started to leak.
So he went to the store,
to buy a new floor.
But that rotted out in a week.
THE END.

I like to eat crackers and cheese.
The calcium's good for your knees.
I like to make cookies and bread,
then go for a ride in a sled.
Winter is quiet and crisp.
Frostbite can give you a lisp.

THE PIG OF KIG

In the farmland of Kig
there lived a fine pig,
who wore on his head
a nice plaster wig.
He was walking one day
when he came to a tree.
He arrived so exhausted
from the load on his head,
that he lay down right there,
without even a bed!
Now from what I could see
looking out to that tree,
our wonderful pig
lay down on a fig,
he jumped in a start
and his wig fell apart.
When it fell to the ground
no wig could be found.
To repair, our pig thought,
would be way too much trouble,
for there on the ground
was a pile of rubble.
THE END.
