"Wheelies"
After 40 yrs, last night,
my eyes beheld a wonderous sight.
8 wheelies did an old square dance
The crowd just sat there all entranced.
So that their skill was bound to show
they played the music track on slow
but they still maintained their rythym
to show us that the force was with em.
I was really moved to tears
to see they'ed overcome their fears.
The human spirit will survive
while folks like these are still alive.
They were there to give us proof.
when they were through
we "Raised the roof".
" My M"
I did an english drama course
and when they had my dough
I asked them for an acting part.
They told me where to go.
I have the address with me now,
but no one seems to know
exactly where's the office of
this man Marcel Marceau.
"Honkey"
Here's a bumper sticker
that I saw just last night.
"Why don't you just honk on your horn
if you love peace and quiet?"
"Nought"
I started out with nothing much
but I don't mind a bit.
for when I look around I find
I still have most of it.
"Sucker"
I bought the latest Vacuum cleaner
it cost mega bucks.
But now I've had it for a week
I reckon that it sucks.
"Handy"
I viewed the third hand on my watch.
It just went round and round.
Then I discovered something else
which didn't seem quite sound.
I've asked about & I've found out
what others all have reckoned.
Apparently the Third hand is the One
they call the Second.
"Miss Pell"
Words all have their meanings
as Dictionaries show,
but if the word there is misspelled
how would we ever know.

"Words worth"
Webster's Dictionary was the first,
or so I've heard.
The question that I wonder is
"Where did he find each word?"
" Wacko"
To say a thing is "Out of whack"
it's meaning doesn�t show.
What exactly is a "Whack,?"
I'd really like to know.
"Set & match"
Here's a small conundrum
when all is said & done.
Why is a T.V. called a "Set?"
when there is only one.
"Seats please"
If "All the world's a stage"
as Shakespeare used to say.
"Where does the audience find a place
to sit and watch the play?"
"Gladly my cross-eyed Bear "
If you are dyslexic and are
cross-eyed with your sight,
do the two afflictions mean
that you can read all right?
" Frills "
If "love is blind" for all mankind.
as all the poets say.
Why is it that most women
still invest in lingerie?
"one and two"
Women have unusual names
for clothing it is true
they have a bra that's singular
with a Pair of panties too.
"Shorty"
There's a word in english
meaning "Short" I think is wrong.
Can you tell me why
"Abbreviation" is so long ?
"Gluey"
This one really makes you think
it surely puzzles men
"Why doesn't glue stick to
the inside of the bottle then?"
"Way to go"
My plot is paid I 'm having fun
and so I say "Just bring it on"
"Wine ,Women and song", they say
I guess I'm past all that today.
No wine that's red
the women fled.
Just one more stroke and I'll be dead.
so all that's left ,I see ,is song
but I'm prepared to sing along.
