Funny Little Poems  To Make You Smile

Late Night Radio

 My loving husband gave me this dire warning.
He would divorce me first thing in the morning.

"Why, dear, what is the matter, "I quickly replied.
"I'm sick of that darn radio, I am fit to be tied.

Pyramids, Bermuda Triangles, Saucer and all,
Psychics, Occultists and assorted screwball.

Warlocks and preachers, plus a hit man or two.
I've listen so long that my ears are turned blue.

Enough already, or you won't be happy or glad.
When your darn old radio has driven me mad.

When your Prince Charming has turned into a toad.
And flush  that darn radio down our commode."


The Planets Lullaby
By Joan Estelle High

Off we go to Venus, Mercury and Mars.
We dance across the Milky Way and skip across the stars.
We rest a while on Jupiter and play on Saturn's rings.
Uranus plays the violin, while Father Neptune signs.
Snow ball fights on Pluto, make craters on the Moon.
Pegasus flies through the night, but he brings us home too soon.
We try to catch a comet's tail, but we are just too slow.
We hate to leave but we know that it is really time to go.
The night is slowly fading and the dawn is coming soon.
Next time we will take our lunch, and eat yogurt on the Moon.


 Song playing is "I wanna Dance"
