It's an Indian hello
Howled Tom.
It's the ghost of my father
Said Tom spiritually.
Somebody stole my apple
Said Tom fruitlessly.
I lost my poodle
Said Tom petulantly
I have been scalped
Said Tom distressed.

A nice first entry. Very original Tom Swiftys, no doubt.
Well one and good luck!

Puns he would have relished being rude about!Thanks for entering them.

your first stanza ... what's up with that?

I really enjoyed reading this witty and clever piece--I think Humphrey Lyttelton would have appreciated the wordplay.
