i fell in love with a tea-towel
but things dried up between us
i fell in love with a biscuit
but it came to a crumby ending
i fell in love with a donkey
but he was such a beast
i fell in love with a teapot
but he was always spouting off
i fell in love with a penguin
but he was much too cold
i fell in love with a giraffe
but we didnt see eye-to-eye
i fell in love with a flea
but he fleed
i fell in love with a fly
but he flied
i fell in love with another penguin
but he was even colder
i fell in love with an abacus
but i couldnt count on him
i fell in love with a nun
but she had some very bad habits
i fell in love with the moon
but i was told to stop baring my bottom
i fell in love with the sun
but he kept going down on me
i fell in love with a lollipop lady
but she soon had me licked
i fell in love with an ape
but he was such an animal
i fell in love with a bus
but he couldnt conduct himself properly
then i fell in love with a bed
now we sleep together every night

Some things have been greatly missed. -
You made me giggle. Someone once wrote a poem about someone tasting like a teapot -- I think it might have been the Worm. I'm aging and my memory for holding all the details of everything is beginning to fade.
Did you know Bohb was back for a bit? He was. But he's left again it seems. Tease he is. I think the tea-towel pun is pretty damn funny. And the abacus too because I like them.
Lisa vote for sun.
Hope you win and hope the prize is NOT frozen meatloaf on a stick. That would be plain awful. How are you?

I fell in love with a plink
but she ponked me on the bean
I fell in love with my bean
But my brain became a knotted noodle
I am in love with a Plink
She Ponks and makes me think
oh, and laugh or smile too, when
I am least able, so there it is
shall I now fall in love with a table?

Me=Ape
this is a real poem, well real enough. Are you famous?
I can't imagine why you were told to stop baring your bottom. did you have a boil on there or something? People in England not fond of the parallelismus memborum? Which bring me to my most important observation which is this....
The lollipop lady and Senor Soleil might pair up and make a lovely adult film duo. NOW STARRING IN THEIR FIRST FEATURE FILM TOGETHER...SR. SOLEIL AND THE LOLLIPOP LADY IN...
IN LOVE WITH A FLY
