Foundered

A homeless man liked to eat
Fried frog legs, because they
Tasted like chicken. And one
Day he ate so many that he
Became foundered on them,
Never wanting to eat frog
Legs again.

Heavenly Choir

All of a sudden a heavenly
Sound came out of the sky.
It was a choir singing
Beautiful songs that brought
Tears to everyone’s eyes. No
One could be seen in the sky,
But it was like the choir was
Encircling us. They sang
Until the sun went down.

Skeletons in the Closet

Most people have dirty little
Secrets that they hope no one
Ever finds out about. They can
Hear the rattling in the closet to
Remind them that they are still
There. That person constantly
Fears the skeletons will jump
Out of the closet and start
Talking.

The Peacock

Out of nowhere a beautiful
Peacock showed up in our
Quiet little neighborhood.
It struts around with its
Rainbow of feathers all
Spread out. It has this call
That sounds like someone’s
Being murdered. It won’t
Let anybody near–it might
Chase them anyway.

Car of Idiots

Every once in a while you
See them out on the streets.
The car is packed full of
People with goofball looks.
They hang their legs out of
The car windows and cruise
Around and around singing
Off-key songs to blaring
Music. It’s been said they
May have come from
Another planet–of Goofs.

Jumping Frogs

One day a friend of mine
And I decided to go fishing.
We packed our fishing
Gear and food to last most
Of the day. We began to
Fish from the bank when
We heard a rustling noise
In the brush around us.
Suddenly hundreds of
Jumping frogs as big
As cats came straight
For us. They looked
Carniverous, and had
Huge red sticky tongues.
We were so afraid that
We ran off and left our
Fishing gear.

Serenity Pool

Deep in the woods away
From the noise of the
City is a haven of peace
Called Serenity Pool.
It has benches around
It so people can sit and
Reflect and make decisions.
Couples can be together
In peace. Looking into
The pool you can see
Into the future.
