Poems That Make You Laugh
My book of funny pieces can be found here. Still a few free copies for Kindle http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...=1&*entries*=0
sample:Giraffe Short-horned colossus It's perfectly obvious. You're one part spindly legs, Nine parts esophagus. Lightning Bugs In my backyard They burn peepholes in the night And take snapshots of my house. Hailstorm Lighting's omen. Thunder's din. The sky has lost its marbles! May the tournament begin! --ernest slyman |

On the verse titled "Hailstorm," did you perhaps mean
Lightning's, rather than Lighting's. Of course, it's your poem, and you can use whatever you wish. ---- I'm showing that the 'copies' are NOT free. You have it priced at $2.99 Last edited by Dr. Drib; 06-14-2015 at 06:56 AM. |

Click on the link, create an account with Amazon, and buy it.
You do understand that I'm not the author. You do understand this, don't you? |

The following poem has been added to my ebook. corrections as well have been uploaded. The new edition, if you purchased previously, should be available within a day or so.
Reading in a Used Bookstore What lies beneath shimmers up and grasps the eye like a fish and tosses it into the sea. The cold wind blows and lifts a page. The ship rocks to and fro, teetering in my hand. The swells, the surge, the sunlit undulating waves roll and roll, beat against my brow. The white majestic sails billow and pop in my soul. A tremor strolls along the deck, spies inside me a spot of land. (above poem was published in anglepoetry.com several months ago, UK Publication.) (My favorite poem from this book is "The Law of Pie." Just a portion. It's rather a long poem...Law of Pie In the Bible Belt, there is the law of pie. If you caught drunk driving in the Bible Belt, you've got to recite Bible verses and you can't eat pie for two weeks. If you rob a bank, and kill two tellers, you can't eat pie for six years. If you cheat on your taxes you can't have pie for six months. And if you and your wife fuss and fight over nothing, like who shot the dog. You stop making love. One of you uglier than the other. Here's some pie. You need it. If you go to church you deserve a piece of pie. If you dressed up nice and your shoes is shined, you get pie. But if you don't pray or read your Bible, if you use the Lord's name in vain, if you womanizing, drunk, gambling, cussing, you ain't getting no pie. Don't even ask.
