Ima Ryma Poems

The funeral service was done.
As the widow walked to the car,
She paused to ask the mortician
A favor, just a bit bizarre.
...

I saw the cop cars parked next door.
The neighbors' child had disappeared.
It had happened a week before,
And now the very worst was feared.
...

Robbing a bank is lots of stress;
And here's a perfect case in point.
I thought the job was a success -
Hour later I'm in the joint.
...

This girl I liked did not like me.
I just could not figure out why.
What could I do so she would see
That I am really one great guy?
...

I had known her for many years.
We lived just a few miles apart.
Our lives had but few common spheres,
But what we shared came from the heart.
...

A nurse entered the mother's room.
'How are you both doing today -'
'Tired but so happy, I presume? '
The nurse asked in a friendly way.
...

Old Robin Hood lie near to death.
He beckoned Little John to hear
His final words in gasping breath,
'Bring me my bow and arrow near.'
...

Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson
Were in the boonies, camping out.
Their bedtime sherry toots were done.
They retired to the tent about.
...

It was like snap, crackle and pop,
Going on inside of my ear.
And the feeling would just not stop.
It didn't hurt and I could hear.
...

Keith Richards is one crazy guy.
Too often through life rolling stoned.
Trying to outdo the last high,
And keep the party's end postponed.
...
