Canadian Dumpster Fire - POTD
So, Justin Trudeau's gonna retire
(something Canadians did desire)
But he's left a big mess,
and Trump's causing stress!
It's a political dumpster fire!

Stress Test
Trump gave Putin Covid tests
While Americans were very stressed
To Putin he was drawn
As the pandemic raged on
While Trump told us to 'drink bleach, it's best'

- Snow, No Thanks -
Carl was tired of winter's sharp wars
Heartless and without love, even indoors
"I'm too old to shovel snow"
He bet everything.woe
Rio de Janeiro he adores

Phil's Gone
On the second Punxsutawney Phil could not be found
Appears he had abandoned his hole in the ground
But they found a note
He was going by boat
Seems the stress was too much; he was Miami bound

Mediocre Man
There once was a man that was lackluster
Who's life was one giant cluster
Writes a suicide note
He slits his throat
Blank stares are all his family can muster

Charge It
I only just begun to charge
Impulsive buys are way too large
My credit card sighs
While bankbook cries
My pay cheque I need to enlarge
*So many things to buy since I bought a house, but I really am a wise shopper : )

Light a Candle
light a candle
let it glow with hope
let its thin film of smoke
disperse the dark clouds
let it drizzle and frizzle out your stress,
let it wash off the stench of sweat
let your pregnant hope
deliver twins and triplets;
multiple tales of success.

Pen flies when out of sight,
Boy, I hope that I'm right.
No award for me,
What a shame that'd be,
At least I gave it all my might.

If I Were...
If I were a sonnet poem
A lover would read my proem
she’d recite all my lines
and would stress my end rhymes
and love the syllables iamb.

My Pole Dancer
This Pole Dancer she was with me
All other men must pay her fee
Still I must confess
My family’s stress
But Polish dance lessons aren’t free

My Hot Therapist
At times a hair-raising event.
As I yell at my dryer and vent.
A machine to make me hot
Takes the brunt today's stress brought.
Just do your job and make me content.

Mother Nature
When she gets mad she will rumble,
And many structures can crumble.
Perhaps this is her sign,
To stress things are not fine.
Man, why can’t she be more humble?

Barred
Billy Joe was a caring bartender
who tried to be a broken-heart mender.
But stories of woe
put him in a hole.
Now he's gone on a two-week bender.

Huh
Some freezing rain is predicted today
Gonna stay put, the prognosticators I'll obey
Consider my life precious
Love eating lettuce
With gobs of coleslaw dressing, delicious that way
Huh???

A New Alignment
Where can I go to buy some real excitement
Is there a shop where I can get a new alignment
Would pay big money
In fact dollars by the tunny
To experience the joy of a little refinement

Flying High
Wish I had wings like the birdies possess
I'd fly through the skies getting rid of all stress
Flying high up there
Winds blowing my hair
Giving thanks for all the happiness I possess

Fast Food
McDonald's and Burger King fare
Fuel obesity fair and square
Fast food tastes so good
We eat all we could
Truth be told, we really don't care!

Byard, a Real Peculiar Name
A peculiar middle name, all my life I've been burdened with
Twas “Byard”, that's even worse than “Archibald” or “Biff”
What were Ma and Pa thinking
They must have been drinking
My nickname of Jack saved the day and made a big diff!

Hunkering Down
Hibernation is the name of the game
As we hunker down today from the rain
200 mph winds were sustained
In that Mexican hurricane
Best let it blow over as to a lamp post we're chained

Foot-In-Mouth Disease
Have a penchant for the old foot-in-mouth disease
Been afflicted since us guys came down from the trees
Never learned I guess
It causes much stress
Trying to make amends with words to appease

Happiness Is Free
Why are some people blessed and others in distress
Shouldn't happiness be distributed equally for everyone to access
Think I'll write to the powers that be
To pass a law to make happiness free
It sure would go a long way to eliminate the world's stress

Are You Nutso
Smile, damn it smile, you face won't break
It's a brand spanking new day for goodness sake
No grumpies allowed
Sing hallelujah out loud
In fact, break out in song as soon as you wake
Are you nutso???

Long Skinny Legs
Flamingos have extra long skinny legs
Why is that so, the natural question begs
Their bodies are large
To understand is hard
How they support themselves on these long skinny pegs

An Old Fashioned Guy
I'm an old fashioned guy with old fashioned ways
Hard getting used to the fast pace of today
Need to take a breath
Eliminate the stress
By singing “Swanee River” as my hair turns grey!
