I was out in the yard at my place,
When I looked up and saw my mom’s face;
Now, I know that she’s gone,
And I’m sure she’s moved on,
But I mowed the whole lawn just in case.

A neighborhood squirrel named Jack
Does a dance in the street for a snack
And when people ask why,
All we say in reply
Is an acorn’s a tough nut to crack.

I thought that I knew what now meant,
Till I used it to date an event;
Now my lingering friends
Claim that now never ends
But the now that I meant came and went!

they say that it’s spring here today
so I hurried outside just to play
and I ran all around
but was quickly worn down
as I shoveled a path all the way

be one with your shovel, they said,
and i was, ’til the plow turned my head,
and I thought he’d go ’round
if i just stood my ground,
now i’m one with the snowbank instead

this morning the sun is so bright
that it’s flooding my household with light
but out in the snow
it’s still forty below
too bad it’s all bark and no bite

now I went for a walk just to see
what a photo op winter might be,
but then with the snow
and the twenty below,
well, the only thing out there was me

Poor Rudolph, whose nose is so bright,
Isn’t leading the old sleigh tonight,
For Santa, I guess,
Has installed GPS,
And now Rudolph’s his new taillight.

a mink had a drink with a skunk
and the skunk got the mink really drunk
for the mink didn’t think
that the skunk had a stink
but the skunk knew his stink really stunk
Limerick 2
Our fictional President Pooh
Got his tan from a bottle, it’s true,
But he rubbed too much in,
And it gave his old skin
A tomato-stained tupperware hue.
