King Solomon was said to fly
On a carpet around the world.
Sixty miles long and wide, sent high
Upon the winds, It's silks unfurled.
...
An old fox and a young girl met
In the woods on a snowy day.
The young girl did not feel a threat,
And listened while the fox did say,
...
Hubby was so hard to buy for.
He never liked the gifts I gave.
For days after, I would be sore
From his beatings in rant and rave.
...
Temptation I could not resist.
I was on insanity's brink.
My shoplifting sprees did persist.
Desperate, I went to a shrink.
...
Pigeons are an urban wildlife
That lots of humans grouse about
As causing so much stress and strife.
And pigeons could care less no doubt.
...
The Marines during World War II
Enlisted help from Navajo.
Hundreds of us were asked to do
Coded words to outsmart the foe.
...
The Chicago night life - I love
All the smells, the lights and the sounds
On all sides, below and above.
The Loop keeps looping on its rounds.
...
To humankind who dare to roam
Into the forest claimed by him,
Un unforgiving, orn'ry gnome
Will punish for this trespass whim.
...
When reincarnated I should
Be an elephant in the wild.
In nature's way this would be good.
In the late '50's as a child
...
Miss Betty White, we will miss you,
A ninety nine year well lived life.
With Allen Ludden, your love true,
Now heavenly husband and wife.
