why did the chicken cross the road?
Actually he didn't
The road moved under the chicken
The great upwelling within the earth
magma man spewing out of a volcano...
Caused the earthquake
Which moved the road under the chicken
This old rooster a the top of the barn
Looked on at the chicken and laughed
For further up the hill
Tred Jack and Jill
To go and get some water
But the well was almost empty
So they only got enough to put in a glass
Oh so shiny it looked
As they sat in the grass
Only half of it got water
And empty was the other half.
Mary and her lamb one day
Went down by the brooks to play
Humpty Dumpty then looked on
At the innocent beauty as she ran
From Itsy Bitsy who came up beside her
And gave her a fright
As she thought it would bite her
Poor old egg...fell of the wall
Broken little Humpty.....cradle and all
The grass is green and the sky is blue
It always was...what else is new.
The sun is yellow and is hot.
This poem is all that I've got.

Guess I like to keep things real...but there are sometimes I go to my secret place and fantasy and whimsical thoughts pervade the thickness of my grey matter. Glad you enjoyed it.
