DON’T FRET ABOUT GETTING OLD

 

Don’t fret about getting old

Be philosophical instead

Age is really just a number

Old is only in your head

I GOT A DUAL PURPOSE BIRTHDAY CARD

 

I got a dual purpose birthday card

The intention was well meant

For a person of your advancing years

With its very high fibre content

21st CENTURY NURSERY RHYMES # 231

 

Ky-me Nay-mo

Kilt-a ky-mo

Ky-me nay-mo

Ky-me

Man dig that scat cat daddio

ARE YOU WEARING A JOHNNY?

 

Are you wearing a Johnny?

That’s naughty of you to presume

Unless you really are premature

God! Do you really come that soon?

TILLOTTAMA

 

Tillottama, Apsara

Of the clouds and waters

In Hindu and Buddhist mythology

A celestial nymph

And celestial maiden

A beautiful supernatural being

Youthful and elegant,

Who dances to the music

Of the Gandharvas,

In the palaces of the Gods,

Entertainer and seducer

Of Gods and men

An ethereal being

Inhabiting the skies

I LOVE YOU BY ANY MEASURE # 7

 

I love you by any measure

You might wish to use

But I don’t know how to express

The way I feel about you

And the affect you have on me

So, I hope this gives you a clue

If I blew a single kiss

Into a typhoon

Only when they found it

Would I stop loving you

I MAY HAVE GOLD TEETH

I may have gold teeth

Showing when I grin

I may have silver hair

Which is going thin

I will even confess

That I have bronze skin

But I can say that my pencil

Still has plenty of lead in
