I still write. I still art. I still adventure...
I just do it over here, now
In water near dusty bus stations
Are native, young, trusty Croatians
They fuss and they primp
Ev'ry crab, krill and shrimp
Those terribly fussy crustaceans

CERN

To explain the whole known universe
There's a loop particles will traverse
Collide and then splatter.
They thought it would matter
But actually did the reverse

Descartes sat down into his chair,
A waitress assisted him there.
"A beer and a shot?"
"Oh, I think not."
Then Rene vanished into thin air.

The need to get fit had awoken
But exercise gods had just spoken
It went from big talk
To one single walk
And somehow my foot ended broken

...a li'l bit late

My children are very well rounded
Their thirst for more knowledge unbounded
Though caught unawares
Of current affairs
So maybe they'll spend some time grounded

The most absurd thing out of all the absurds
That I ever have heard in the countless I've heards:
"What is that dot
You do it a lot
Putting dots in your texts after every few words"

I'm so old... 🤣

No matter how small or how grand
A pile of rock, dirt or sand
Off Bar Harbor's coast
Called 'island' by most
Can still be described as Maine land.

When locks are in need of negation
To end unfair incarceration
Just you and the lock
Should have a good talk
The key to it's communication!

One of my first limericks, just before single life 🤣:

I think that my dishwasher's broken.
It's banging and clanging. It's smokin'!
Perhaps it is best
To let my wife rest.
The laundry can wait 'til she's woken.

In doing things oh-so-parental
Be nourishing. Proper and gentle.
When Christmas time nears
Fully switch gears
Feel free to go full Santa-mental

A struggling fellow named Bill
Spent all yesterday very ill
He said with dismay
"It was quite a hard day
'stead of aspirin I took a blue pill."

The 12 Limericks of Christmas
day 12

This holiday's really on track
On pace, as it were, to be whack
With rhythm and care
Of cymbals and snare
All planning to bring the beat back!

The 12 Limericks of Christmas
day 11

As far as the orchestra pack go
The woodwinds department went wacko
Eleven of them
Are hacking up phlegm
From packing their pipes with tobacco!

The 12 Limericks of Christmas d 10
The Lords tried to act rather coy
Deep down each one's only a boy
'tween ladies gyrating
And maidens lactating
They hopped, skipped & leapt up with joy

The 12 Limericks of Christmas
day 9

The next day should be a sensation!
I trembled with anticipation!
Nine strippers, a pole!
My love, bless her soul!
But no, they just waltz in formation.

day 8

The eight lovely ladies this morn
Upheld solemn oaths they had sworn
They pump and they sing
To get the real thing
No formula for their newborn

day 7

Swans were the next Christmas token
All seven were breast and back strokin'
The long neck, it helps
But they're not a Phelps
No records for swimming were broken

Chameleons, with zero compunction
Change colors at every new junction
Though sadly it's true
Some can't change their hue
(The ones with a reptile dysfunction)

A small break from the 12 Limericks of Christmas...

I purchased a wig yesterday
My old one had just blown away
Just twenty five cents
And made for us gents
It's really a small price toupee

The 12 Limericks of Christmas
day 6

Her efforts would only increase
The very next day's centerpiece
Were six in a gaggle
Whose tails gave a waggle:
And omelets provided by geese!

day 5

I only have one set of hands,
So no one I know understands
If she wants to be
Married to me
Then why’s she got five wedding bands?

The 12 Limericks of Christmas
day 4

The holiday almost was wrecked
When poultry tried hard to connect.
It wasn't the call
But imagine the gall!
Those four birds were calling collect!

The 12 Limericks of Christmas
day 3

And after the first joyful days
I thought she'd be changing her ways
But under the tree
Not one hen but three
With cigarettes, wine and berets!
