Month: November 2013

Little to say most of time, on a bonding kick,

Its nice to know there’s something that sticks

When you don’t see each other all that much,

You have to find deep thoughts, like such,

A grand ‘ole romping super hero Flick! 

Do your best to stay Inside and Out of town,

For they’ll rush and shove and push you down,

The season of giving’s just beginning,

Season of the violent, manic grinning,

Taking, shaking, fellow shirking, Black Friday Clown. 

To a wintery chill, the rain gives way,

And all your friends you invite to stay,

For supper and some pumpkin pie, 

So pour the wine, and pass a thigh,

Have a happy Turkey Day! 

All week I’ve been a little sick

And now to sit in endless traffic,

And travel for the Holidays,

I need to drive for yet some ways,

At least I have this goofy limerick. 

At any moment he’ll feel a nagging smother

Just leave him alone, we’ll tell one another,

But on his birthday, We’ll shout and sing! He’ll let it slide.

So it goes, such reveling, We know he cares cause he’ll abide,

On this, his birthday, my snarling, clever, wicked fun, brother. 

There’s a lot of ways to relax, unwind,

but its hard to do if you’re feeling confined,

The truth is you don’t need room to range,

But sometimes one needs to rearrange,

and so make space to free one’s mind. 

So much to say about what we eat,
But much that is said is simply replete
with falsehoods and fanciful guesses.
Various nature tells us and blesses,
So many things. Lets eat some red meat.

We all heard them roar for blocks and blocks,
An audience loved their character stocks,
They tricked vamped and played,
And for hours folks gleefully stayed,
No one did mind that their puppets were socks.

Through all the restless finger taps,
There have been many years of gaps,
But one snack of which I’ll never tire
Its the one to which all others aspire, 
Is the storied, simple, perfect Ginger Snap.
