Mad Antics


Mad antics are not nice
when giving a child a bath
And when you begin
Mad antics get no laugh


This Is Just A Note


This is just a note
To think what I have got
For if I don’t write quick
It will be forgot

The Telephone

The telephone rings and it’s my job
To look, to look, to look like an idiot
I do my job very well
I see, I see, I see, not a thing.
 

Love To Laugh

I love to laugh
With proverbs in my eyes
And I love pretending
That I am very wise


Thank You For Your Smile

Thank you for your smile
Your tender laugh and eyes
Shining bright as the longer night
And being just as wise
