April Fool's Day

Sam made this. Blame her!

This is just for fun.... REPEAT: This is just for fun. No juxtapositions were harmed in the making of this extremely bad poetry.

Look! Up in the sky!

It's a pickle riding a yo-yo

Opps, you missed it,

oh my oh my..

--

Today is a day of jokes

and mis-direction, a day

you can trick someone just

by clever voice inflection.

--

Look! It's a flying toad!

Oh no there's water rushing

out of your commode!

--

And what about calling up

someone and asking if their

refrigerator is running?

That always gets a laugh

when one is funning..

--

Now you're wondering if

'funning' is actually

a word? It is! I don't

joke about writing, that

would be absurd!

--

My brother used to

ask me "what is that

on your shirt?"

and then he'd plink

my nose, he was such a

little squirt.

--

And April is also

National Poetry Month

which works out very

well because I can

write about both

events while I eat

some cale. (joking

I hate cale but I needed

a rhyme)

--

Look! Sam Harty uses

Forced Rhymes......Sometimes!

    Well there you go, I didn't know "funning" was a word.

    Veery nice, Sam. I smiled the whoel way though. "while I eat some cale. (joking I hate cale but I needed a rhyme)" Rhyming is a bit like that sometimes. You sit there and run through the alphabet trying to find a word 😉😉
