Today's Poem

The Funny Man

If you meet the funny man
You'll find he does the best he can
To make you laugh and have some fun
With every joke beneath the sun

It's quite a joy to meet this guy
Don't think too much or question why
Enjoy the ride and shake his hand
His mind you'll never understand

For some are born with funny genes
A gift for bringing happy scenes
You can't explain how this could work
Or what behind the laughs may lurk

Be sure then as you wish him well
To spread the news he came to tell
That joy and laughter need a fan
So don't ignore the funny man

I always say a bad joke is better than no joke at all.

I sure won't pass him up. Jonathan Winters and a fellow Brit, Bob Hope, come to mind.

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
