There was a poet named Milton
Who never slept in a Hilton
But Paris he knew
And Cambridgeshire, too,
Which is where he bought his Stilton*
* Stilton is an English cheese sans Marmite

Colorization is Angela’s thing
Her purple hair makes her blue eyes zing
there is a spike in her neck
with mini-me, what the heck?
Bit of lunacy makes this photo king!

Luck of the draw, that’s where it’s at
No rhyme or reason
Must be the season
Just step on up and swing your bat

Among politicians with goals
So many for sale
No way could he fail
Just look at the GOP polls!

There once was a minister so meek
His sole desire, the Lord for to seek
Despite babes everywhere
Never once did he stare
He just smiled, then turned her other cheek

The Devil led her to a crib
Where Cain and Able
Hatched a stork fable
Creating the very first fib

Meeting women online, werecat Nat
with the lovers of felines would chat.
When a cat he became,
he required a sweet dame
who – on seeing him – would not yell SCAT.

A muse on the Isle of Man
Skipped to the loo aka "can"
But something went wrong
The queue was too long
How could she rush back to Jan?

A tenderhearted lad from Schenectady
Gave his elbow to an elderly lady
Helping her across the street,
While never missing a beat
Leaves her happy in a better spot shady.

There once was a light-skinned pachyderm
Who had a thing for a lowly worm
Sun-bathing on the hot sand
Elephant got quite a tan
Poor worm earned him a wiggly sunburn

I Am Anaya likes good food and fine rhyme
Dining with Poetry Soup all the time
She posts tributes so terse
but they could be verse
With a love of poetry so true and sublime

In Encino there's a veterinarian
who is the Valleys rudest contrarian
He'll insult a shy tabby
Greet a pug: Hey there, flabby!
But at home, he's a kind Presbyterian

Whiskey’s my favorite drink.
It makes my cheeks turn pink.
Can’t have just one,
What’d be the fun.
So I drink til I get to the brink.

About the sin of intercourse

I'm loaded with fibre right down to my feet
When I'm dead and gone
Plant me on the front lawn
Such yummy Shredded Wheat can't be beat

Contrary to popular belief guys have a feminine side
Some wear gowns pretending they're a blushing bride
I'm more reserved
Lacking the nerve
But at the sight of a wee mousie I'm mortified

Are cruising the mall like a barge.

Fit as a fiddle,
Aim my cane at the middle and charge!

My grandson’s fiancé just rocks
She’s lovely, her name’s Fonda Fox
They are soon to marry
But Fonda won’t carry
His surname because it is Cox!
Thanks to a dear friend who said this is my best poem this year - hence the title!

Who went to eat without a fill

After her man's last cup
So she ran away from their bill!

to test out a sofa, and how!
The fabric is swell;
it resisted poo well.
Good news too, it’s half price right now!
