Robert Edgar Burns Poems

Today women are treated as equals.
Those who aren't wear corrective bras.
When buying reconditioned plumbing supplies,
You'll get the best deal you ever saw.
...

When talking dogs upon their birth
Come out as Democrats,
It's when their eyes are opened,
They realize it's not where they are at.
...

She was rising from her bubble bath
And standing soaking wet.
A golden auburn beauty,
This vision I'll not forget.
...

Is there maybe something I could do,
To make you want me like I do you?
I've been so patient for so very long.
At times it seems I may have been wrong.
...

I counted her fingers and I counted her toes.
Does she know she's the miracle we never could hold?
For the doctors had told us there wasn't a chance.
But our prayers had been answered it was now time to dance.
...

I am moving forward, and I won't look back.
Like a speeding train on it's rusty tracks.
It has reverse, but it's going straight,
Until it arrives at it's final gate.
...

Walking in circles is a fun thing to do
If ring around the rosie is the game just for you.
But out in the forest photographing some deer,
Walking in circles means you're lost I fear.
...

Did you ever seek inspiration
After a challenge from someone?
But no thoughts came into your mind.
Where does inspiration come from?
...

The stars on our flag are white on blue.
They stand for our states, some old some new.
Red stripes are for blood by patriots that bled.
All races are counted In the tears we have shed.
...

In the beginning of our empire
The tax rates were very low.
Revenue was very great.
History books now tell us so.
