Little Bo-Peep and Other Stories

Little Bo-Peep Fell Asleep

Little Bo-Peep had fallen asleep,

When she awoke, she had lost her sheep;

She was filled with stress,

Clearly in distress,

Until I in my Jeep found her sheep.

Monica and Her Harmonica

 There was a lady named Monica,

Who loved to play her harmonica;

She played it everywhere,

In her bright underwear,

Even while riding her horse named Wicca.

My Fitbit

My Fitbit is always on my arm,

My Charge 5 always keeps me from harm;

It gives me my stats,

It keeps me from fats,

And it also always keeps me warm.

or
(And if I may say so, it has charm.) 🤣

A Lonely Primate

There was a lonely primate,

Who was looking for a mate;

One day on the Net,

Ronald Chump she met,

At last, she went on a date.

The Waking of Sleeping Beauty

When I first met Sleeping Beauty,

I saw she was a real cutie;

There was an earthquake,

She needed to wake,

I kissed her as was my duty.

A Fellow Named Hall

There was a fellow named Hall,

This Hall was not tall at all;

So, this is what he thought,

“I’ll become a mascot,

And get a job at the mall.”

Whining and Dining

A lady I know who’s in Spain,

Is sadly often quite a pain;

She’s constantly whining,

Unless dining and wining,

I think that lady is my bane.

A Fellow Named Gill

There once was a fellow named Gill,

Who lived in a mill on a hill;

There he made flour,

Hour upon hour,

All the while displaying great skill.

An Angel

I have met an angel from above,

Who is sweet and gentle as a dove;

She’s modest and kind,

Indeed, a rare find,

I am blessed she showers me with love.

My Special Alien

I’ve met an alien named Bond,

Of whom I’ve grown very fond;

Across the galaxy,

In her techno taxi,

She takes us to Mars and beyond.
