There once wss a man from Pierre.
A vaunted cross-country skier.
Gave up his sport for a bigger thrill.
Ever since he’s gone downhill.
Ended his hobby to make it a career.

Location, Location
There was a young Moose from Bottineau.
Had a severe aversion to lots of snow.
To remedy the situation.
He moved South in our nation.
To Louisiana’s city of Thibodaux.

There’s Always Time
When I was young, time was naught. It moved at glacial speed.
In middle-age, time was a tool, used to clothe and feed.
In later years, time is a gift, to be given to those we love.
Time is a seed, planted and grown, tended by The Gardener above.

You Are What You Eat
There was an eclectic Aardvark from France.
That ant-eater wore pantaloons, not pants.
A great thirst for knowledge had he.
Earned himself an advanced degree.
A Masters in Fine-ants.

No Practice
Life is impromptu . . . It cannot be rehearsed.
You fly by the seat of your pants . . . your course can’t be reversed.
Without a plan you wing it . . . satisfying an impulsive thirst.
Life is full of uncertainty . . . Eat your dessert first!

Describe one positive change you have made in your life.
It Started When I Lost Something
An Atom walks into a pub and seats himself at the bar. The bartender notices the rather somber look on Atom’s face as he takes his order. Returning with a Manhattan on ice, the bar-keep inquires as to the cause of his client’s dour disposition. Responding in a rather glum tone, the Atom says, “For me it’s the worst thing that could ever happen. I’ve lost an electron.” The bartender in reply says, “Are you sure?” The Atom , “Yes, I’m positive.”

Maybe I’ll Change
I wanted a change of some kind.
Trade in my quartz watch for a self-wind?
Exchange my Cathode Ray Tube TV
and get the latest with QLED?
On second thought I’ll just change my mind.

An Account of Saving
I went to visit Sunbank, just the other night.
Going to see my assets, my account of saved daylight.
The teller, she informed me, “You have a zero amount.”
The daylight I was saving was not in my account.
“This is a great dilemma, what a terrible plight!”
Then said the teller, “Open a new account to get a free flashlight.”

What, me change?
Change is all around us.
It comes from where it may.
Changes come during the night time,
And sometimes during the day.
We change our mind,
We change our heart.
We change when we end.
and change when we start.
A woman marries a man, hoping he will change. But he doesn’t.
A man marries a woman, hoping she won’t change, but she does.
Sometimes we change for the better,
Sometimes we change for the worse.
Sometimes change is a blessing.
Sometimes change is a curse.
But the changes that are most frightening, those causing my skin to crawl.
Are the changes that are announced to be, “a change you won’t notice at all.”

Just like cats and dogs
Our Irish Setter prefers marinara on rotini,
With sautéed yellow squash and zucchini.
Our Persian cat, on the other hand,
is finicky and will demand,
There be Alfredo on the Fettuccine!
The Ethereal Scupper
