Apples On Our Rock
There once reigned a great king on our Rock
Who dared the West and defied their bloc
Dark shades, face of a frown
Short brute so wanted down
Down, oriental appples on our Rock.

Survival of the Fittest
Watched a nature program about Africa last night
And the animals that roam free what a glorious sight
Survival of the fittest
Can make us grimace
As the prey succumbs in a fight for their life
Hard to watch!!!

The Funniest Typo
A poet who was very late for a contest,
submitted a long poem on line, but
misspelled Zareba for Zebra!
Darn it, he was thinking of wild Africa!
Didn't it cost him points and a pain in the chest?

A Born Blind Boy
There was a born blind boy from Bauchi
Who grew up in the land of Auchi
Seen, taken for a begger
Unknown successful cobbler
King's own, a born blind boy from Bauchi.

I understand and respect the way you feel.
I know a desire to be sexy is your freewheel.
you eat once a day...since May you never betray.
keep holding on just for more few days and you will be a keel.

Aardvark Limerick
An Aardvark living in Timbuktu,
Raised his finger and said,” screw you”
Why so rude, I said back,
Lovely manners you do lack.
So, to reciprocate, I gave him two.

Chuck Your Manners In the Ocean
Pardon me, Excuse me, I'm sorry
Don't say these words on a safari
Lions will eat you
A tiger will too
Real soon you'll look like calamari

AFRICAN SUNSET
Watching the sun sinking into a golden horizon,
My heart’s glad as I watch the evening sky siphon,
The scorching heat from an African day,
Giving reprieve to all life that may,
Rest until the morrow, now a day older and wizen!

Lumpy Trunks
A fellow from the south of South Africa
Waltzed around in a skirt made of taffeta
Some thought he was strange
With his long curly mane
A lump in his trunks proved him male to the maxima

Man From Nkandla
I know a man from Nkandla called Zuma
He has an offspring like tuna
He thinks shower
Has the power
To repair his broken bazooka

A Friend Named Sue
I once had a friend named Sue
She always wore the same shoe
When I asked why
She started to cry
I guess her brain was a challenging issue

A Big Leap
There once was a rhino from Timbuktu
Who considered himself a kangaroo--
He took a big leap
Landed all in a heap--
Sat up and played taps on his kazoo.

Free-wheeling Through Africa
Just climb onto the back of my Harley
And we shall ride to the songs of Bob Marley,
In no time at all
We'll be in Senegal,
Though I might stop for lunch in Kigali.

I Was Banged
I was banged!
Five stars in the night of scars,
Were like flies in my eyes.
I was wrong,
I was slogged,
My pimpled Apple fell on his Granny's Nipples!

Woes of Africa
A bicycle rim is considered a toy
As it is rolled along by poor African boy
As we are in good cheer
Watching the game with a beer
Remember one dollar can bring the boy joy

Animals of Africa
Africa is a myriad of nature's animal kingdom
Unequaled for its diversity as seen through a prism
Dangerous or docile
Minds they boggle
It began, a reflection of lives own symbolism>center>

Speedy Cheetahs
Cheetahs reach speeds of 75 miles an hour
Takes 4 seconds, to reach max, other animals cower
Anticipating a soiree
Chasing a cheetah fillay
After the said encounter, they really need a shower

The Sahara Desert
Can't think of a more inhospitable place
The Sahara Desert has such a barren landscape
Yet people exist
Continue to subsist
It boggles the mind how it's a livable space

I want to fly
To the high hill of a mile
Where even the sun can't find me,
The moon can't hide in
Somewhere very close to the sky

A Fossil
Dictionaries describe “fossil” as a cranky old person
Not flattering but it's bang on, not a very nice version
It doesn't apply to me
I'm as sweet as can be
Fillies flock around till I'm forced to charge a fee
