Reboots

Reboots already done before, 
that's the art we've got in store;
March to the tune of A.l,
use human emotion why?
They want the auto-pop I abhor.

GO, NO STAY

GO, NO—STAY Deport those filthy illegals, go call the cops! But not the brown losers who are picking our crops We won’t tell them to go Who else would stoop so low? And it would cause inflation in our grocery shops

***** beach

They sit on the beach acting the loner
She slowly walks by wearing nothing but toner
With a flick of the hair
And a jolly good pair
She leaves ‘em, heads in the sand, hiding a *****

With Christ, With Palestine

I stand with the weak, as Christ taught,
For a land where the innocent fought,
I condemn the cruel flames,
That destroy without names,
And pray for the peace that was sought.

The three boys

Three boys thought they had seen the ghosts
resisting the urge to yell roasts
posing as known heroes
made ghosts to be zeros
Not knowing it was seven toasts

Syllable per line: 8 8 8 6 6 8

Limerick


There was a young las
Who was addicted to drinking sugary soda sassafras
She gulped it all day
Made her small hips go away
As fat cells took over to stay

Jack-Lantern Boys

I thought I could hear, that deviant sound
of eerie boots, disobedient ground
Wearing disguises
Sharing surprises
Jack-Lantern, miscreant, boys are around

Topsy Turvy Pudding

I once made an upside down pudding But it slipped out whilst it was cooking It covered the oven base Was an absolute disgrace Yet the taste was second to nothing.

tick-tock's bite

Not the sort to default or beg
You halt lunch to earn a nest egg
Yet Trump’s tariff plan
Needs a Peter Pan
To stop the croc crunch on your leg

There were three boys at a Halloween do 
Behaving badly all night they were too 
They blew their peashooters 
At each passing hooter 
As they went skipping off to the loo.

A Limerick

There once was a lady from Indy
Who comes out of her house when it’s windy
She doesn’t walk fast
Though her friends are aghast
That her petticoats look very trendy

Seen and Heard

They’re seen, all three sons; aren’t they cute.     (sarcasm)
All heard, and not far from the root.
     These boys, toothless feasts.
     Fangs of wild-eyed beasts.
Just watch, here comes dad; see the boot.

Cat and the paper

A curious cat hid from view,
In a sheet, thinking "I'm anew".
But its tail did betray,
Its hiding place in play,
The lady rushed by, none the wiser too.

Incidental

Countless wrappers were strewn in the yard
and the sugar was kicking in hard.
All Hallow’s bequeath? 
A new set of teeth 
that would max out his dad’s credit card.

Limerick Poetry Contest

There once were three boys who were neighbors
Getting dressed for Halloween they did labor
At my front door
They kept grabbing for more
Instead of candy they got a taste of my taser.

Are You Scared ?


     Are you scared , watching our odd gestures ?
     Don't get afraid of these fake postures.
                We are three brethren :
                Come and play , children !
      Join us and enjoy our adventures.

Halloween spoof

Three goofballs in spooky display,
One with hat, other's fangs on play!
With faces askew,
They jump out and boo,
Scaring  laughs than fear on the way!

Trick or treat

Just picture the gruesome scene
On the night of Halloween
When ghosts and ghouls do rule
With spirits  free from school
And every face is green

Lesser Forms

Again, you gave writing a go;
In shame you now hang your head low.
You once had a sonnet
Or two in your bonnet;
Now limericks are all that you know.

Moanastic

A perky young lady named Babbit
found humor in teasing the Abbot.
She thought ’twould be fun
to dress like a nun,
but he got her out of the habit.

Blogs

Lately blog comments are betwixt and between,
some have been wise, some silly, and some just mean.
  Just ‘cos you feel strongly
  please don’t accuse wrongly
so how ‘bout you vent ideas and not your spleen!

Take Back

It's almost time for you to vote
Cast your ballot and do not gloat
It's time to put back
Our reproductive rights on track
Trump's MAGA is a farce, take note

DOH!

For four generations at least,
they’d carried ‘round that ball of yeast.
Tucked there ‘twixt the thighs,
it made their bread rise;
their pans never had to be greased!

Seems Craig’s got a contest again;
I’m finding out with much chagrin 
my stanzas in sapphic

Working the List

Just dropped by to add to the flap,
a choice between that or a nap.
I’ll clog up the list;
your post will be missed.
Nine more and we’ll call it a wrap!

THE CIRCUS

The trio – Jackal, Fangas, and Goblin,
saw a gruesome circus in Doblin.
Fangas whined and cried,
Goblin turned bug-eyed,
so Jackal whisked them home a squabblin’.

Three Boys With An Eyeful Of Tricks And Treats

Picture Prompt Poetry Contest
Margarita Lillico


It's Halloween night for these three oddballs
Spooks the masks, costumes, candies, norms, and dolls
Three little boys on the prowl
That looks displaced, strange, and foul
Their sights were on scaring with their eyeballs

Three bros., Wideye, Snaggletooth, and Zonkers When in town went a little bit bonkers With the girls that walked by What was level with their eye Was ogled, whistled at, or they'd honk-hers!

Halloween Trick


Three brothers went out to have some fun quick.
The capped one’s magic made ghouls in a flick,
       wide-eyed one froze, lest turned prey, 
       lad with lost teeth looked away.
They got accolades for Halloween trick.
