He Unburdens His Soul to Her

He unburdens his soul to her.
You would swear that she cares.
The time on her expensive mobile
Says, “you pay for my style
And my new phone.
Then I go home
And you, left alone
Smell perfume that lingers
In your bedroom, and on fingers.
Then you make a bank transfer,
Just to show that you care”.

Wind and Rain

I heard the wind blow
Through this wood I love.
When I go
Wind will blow.
And rain pour,
Though I am no more.
Yet it comforts me so.

Fay Who Would Ceaselessly Say the Word Hay

There was a young lady named Fay
Who would ceaselessly say the word hay.
She met a horse
Who did, of course
Mistake that young lady Fay for hay!

My Dog Whose Name is Joan

My dog whose name is Joan
Is fond of chewing a bone.
Whilst in the graveyard
She chews real hard,
Which makes the poor vicar moan!

Lost Contacts

Emails sent to old contacts
Is like needles in haystacks.
Some emails come back.

They’ve changed their address.
A girl lost her dress.
And I’ve lost another contact.

When An Elderly Gentleman Named Nool

When an elderly gentleman named Nool
Fell from a high bar stool,
A doctor called Ted
Said, “he’s stone dead!”,
And I quickly grabbed that stool!

As I Climbed My Apartment’s Old Stairs

As I climbed my apartment’s old stairs
I met a young lady with pears.
I said to her, “lucy,
Your fruit looks real juicy”.
She said, “and what about my pears?”

When the Ghost of Edgar Alan Poe

When the ghost of Edgar Alan Poe
Appeared to a young lady named Flow,
She said to him, “sir,
My name it is Claire”.
Why she lied I really don’t know!
