21st CENTURY NURSERY RHYMES # 423

 

Old Mother Hubbard

Went to the cupboard

To fetch her poor dog a bone

But there was none

As she didn’t have a dog

And was living in a home

CAMEL HAIR BRUSHES

Camel hair brushes are not

Made from camel hair to be fair

It’s just one of life’s oddities

They are made of Squirrel fur

THE PHILANDERING POLAR BEAR

 

The philandering Polar Bear

Took a fancy to a kangaroo

But when she stole his heart

He knew he’d met his waterloo

THE NEW OWNERS WERE MEETING STAFF

 

The new owners were meeting staff

Walking around and glad-handing

I said “I'm going to stand outside,

So, if anyone asks, I'm outstanding”

A GIRL SAID SHE RECOGNIZED ME

 

A girl said she recognized me

And was perfectly sure

It was at the vegetarian club,

But I'd never met herbivore

I ASKED C.S. LEWIS

 

I asked C.S. Lewis what he kept

In his wardrobe,

Beyond suit and dress

And with a wry smile

And a twinkle in his eye

He replied, Narnia business

MY SISTER IS INTO PHOTOGRAPHY

 

My sister is into photography

It makes her shine and glow

And she talks enthusiastically

But you can’t shutter up though
