Fans Upon the Hill
Those tall white fans upon the hill,
Is that what makes the day winds blow?
For when at times the fans are still,
It's fair and calm here down below.

Mary's Little Lamb
I have this pesky little lamb.
Its fleece is snowy white.
If it comes to school one more time,
It's lamb chops for dinner tonight.

Limerick
The first time I saw a bidet,
I learned that to my dismay.
To stand, sit or squat.
What to do I knew not.
So I used it to chill my claret.

Oyster Stew
I, said the oyster, would rather stew in my stew,
Then ever swim off to London with you.
I am, said the clam, content in my bed
And we'll see in twelve years who comes out ahead.

Of Course
Of course, of all they that unnerves,
Of course, are the harshest words, of course.

Sand Sandwich
I bit it.
I spit grit.

Chefs of Pennsylvania
The chefs of Pennsylvania,
And their pencil-shaving cuisine.
Perfection say the critics.
Best food they’ve ever seen.

They bake pencil-shaving pizza,
And pencil shaving pie.
They’ll make pencil shaving meat balls,
And pencil shaving stir-fry.

Try pencil-shaving doughnuts,
Or pencil shavings and cheese,
A pencil-shaving omelet,
Drink pencil shaving teas.

Next time you sharpen pencils,
Take the holder off the hook,
Send the shavings to Pennsylvania.
For a Pennsylvania cook.

I Before E Except After C
That’s a helpful spelling rule,
However, all the same,
Albert Einstein broke it twice,
Each time he wrote his name.

Lucky To Have Been a Teacher
How many times have I faced a class of children,
With bright happy faces,
Yearning to learn,
And I wanted to be a better person?
