Feeling the need today to be silly. I can be grumpy tomorrow.
If the fly who flew
Through the pile of poo
Would only wipe his feet
Before he lands on my beet
It might not be so bad.
If the worm with the squirm
Would only learn
I only want to fish
To put something on a dish
It might not take so long
To put him on the prong
If the lizard had a gizzard
I introduce him to Eddy Izzard
And maybe make him
A tranvestite comedian,
But he’s already committed To GEICO
So what do I know.
If a snake named Jake
Were to come up from a lake
I know for sure he’s a water snake
He’d slither on by
And just say hi
And I’d doff my hat
Right where I sat
And say be on your way.
About JimR, Chaplain
I'm a 74-year-old guy, in October 2024, who worked in Naval Hospital Camp Lejeune for 28 years and now retired as of 31 Dec 16. I've worked in medical records, the Health Benefits Department, Billing, and the IT department and retired as the Personnel Security Manager for the hospital. I'm a musician and Corvette enthusiast. Yes, I have had two. I traded my second Corvette for a Harley Davidson Fat Boy in mid-summer 2019. Then in 2024, I traded to an HD FreeWheeler FLRT. I've already ridden the new one a thousand miles in 6 weeks. I'm also searching for a fresh new outlook on life with new spiritual insight among other things. I was ordained a minister in 20190202. I've become certified with the American Chaplaincy Association through Aidan University in June '21. I've found that with the unconditional love of my companion, Libby Rowe life is complete through God. She's a beautiful, vibrant, giving woman who gives her all in everything she puts her mind to do. She and I married on 24 July 2015. She was ordained in February 2022. She has a blog too called Under a Carolina Moon. Give it a visit.
I can tell you were in a positive frame of mind when writing this poem–it’s delightful!
Thanks. I was in a good mood when I wrote it. Come back again!
