Teens Know It All
Miracle Man

When I was a young lad hurrying to grow,
My intelligence hadn’t yet started to show.
But today I’m alive,
passed eighty-five,
and amazed at things that I didn’t know.

boat, water,
There once was a man from Mozambique
Who went canoeing most every week
In a white water battle
Lost safety vest and paddle
Now he's really up the freakin' creek

I know a translator named Randy,
whose skill with dialects is dandy.
But I have the advantage
of knowing sign language,
and it really is quite handy.

Anxious to be my Huckle bearer
Of my last breath wishful ensnarer
Anxious for my ultimate demise
So to my earthly trappings burglarize
Dishonest wife stealing philanderer

Seeking love and a little romance
The cutest girl smiled

And it ripped out the seat of my pants

Don’t dare let me see
Because I am WOKE not awake.

And Some Get Rained Out”
Miracle Man
4/24/2024
Sometimes my investments cause me to gloat,
but not those times when I’ve missed the boat.
Some days I cruise,
On other days I lose.
It’s then I feel as helpless as a tied up goat.

The ensuing pain caused him to near shout,
Driving him insane,
Was endless foot pain,
Brought on by a painful condition called Gout.

because our president won’t take a stand.

but instead he insists on lending a hand.

One day I tried to write a sonnet
For hours and hours I thought upon it
I swear I'm not joking
My head started smoking
And firemen turned their hoses on it

Pity all those rest home fellows
Over time their hunger mellows
With no dentures in
All their meals begin
Sipping soup and slurping Jellos

Death To America
Miracle Man
4/19/2024
They protest with signs and take to the street,
Bent on making trouble and spreading deceit.
Give America death,
is on every breath,
too many people filled with hate and conceit.

Illegal Migrants
Miracle Man
4/19/2024
Their sleeping bags and tents line each street,
making an eyesore of what once was neat.
The thing most unfunny,
we’re giving them money,
while our healthcare resources they deplete.

Miracle Man

Open borders is denied with a casual sigh,
now we’re in a mess and still don’t know why.
They swarm our borders,
to be resource hoarders,
all are illegal and should be told bye-bye.

Each time I view the morning sun rising,
I ready myself for an unknown surprising,
sometimes its a test,
That requires my best.
At times God thinks my plans need revising.

The Man
Miracle Man

An old geezer who had a thin truncal,
was cursed with a large neck carbuncle,
He wasn’t the same,
after bad news came,
of cannibals making a meal of his uncle.

Two giraffes decided to see
what the English have for their tea.
They stuck in their necks,
and each of them checks,
then ruled it was too bourgeoisie.

But by the breathtaking moments that life creates
Those special times
When life is in rhyme
Breathtaking moments that cause moods to elevate

My attempt at putting those nasty blues on the run
I don't take this task lightly
Honoured and quite rightly
To be the one to put a wiggle in your bum

There are some who say these folks are a bit unsteady
Though the truth is a strain
Open minds must remain
So no matter how outrageous for anything I'm ready

The first crocus appeared, showing much pluck
in spite of the cold, trying her luck.
But then the wind hit her
and the wind was so bitter
that the crocus thought "This just sucks!"

Whose beak was as big as a house
When a dozen crows
Nested in his nose
Only then he began to grouse

There once was an auntie so chic,
Her style was the talk of the clique,
She’d strut down the street,
In heels oh-so-sweet,
Aunt Betty’s fashion sense was unique!

Have you seen Theodore Thimple
On his nose he had a pimple
They joked and teased it
He poked and squeezed it
Most things are never that simple

Outstanding manners we will not let slip
We like afternoon tea
From a cup - hear our plea
Give us a trough if you want a good tip

I once knew a penguin named Frank.
Who had a big problem. He drank.
He got a full snout.
His wife threw him out.
And now he's asleep in “the tank.”

Sumptuous Dinner
Long neck , how to bend by pair of giraffes ?
The task was actually hard, too tough.
But both became greedy
as dinner was ready.
Sumptuous food , also more than enough.

But if you want a limerick i'm on it
And if I had to write without rhymezone

Therefore I have to reliable upon it

and two giraffes thought me a fool
they stuck their heads in
and formed a big grin
before drinking my tea. How cruel!
