Calvin and Hobbes
Had the best jobs
Calvin’s was to experience childhood
Hobbes’ to make sure it was really good
Calvin was ever so wild and unkempt
He took Hobbes wherever he went
Calvin was so irrepressibly inventive
And Hobbes was equally expressive
Though they were quite extreme
They were the best kind of team
Keeping their imaginations tightly in place
They’d challenge Physics Time and Space
Till at the end of each adventurous day
Reluctantly exhausted, they’d hit the hay
Was your childhood this much fun?

Questions for Your Inner You
Are you really at peace
In this body you lease?
Does your face
Reflect
Your inner space?
Do you stop playing hero or clown
And take the time to center down?
Do you spend your time wisely then
To hear the still small voice within?
When you've thought this thought
Then do you do what you ought?
Do you let your conscience be the goad
For when the rubber hits the road?
If you’ll do
This for you
You will find
Peace of mind

A Mime Next Door
Once upon a time
There was a Mime
Who I found would be
A good neighbor to me
He had nothing to say
On each and every day
I’d think “Good morning Mime”
He'd reply in kind each time

Stampede!

Would
Leave
You
Lightly
Trampled
But
Not
Quite
Crumpled;
You
Might
Say
Shaken
But
Not
Stirred!

Your Honey
When You’re Feeling blue
And you don’t know what to do
Go see your honey
She’ll make it sunny!
Her smile so true
Will uplift you
For she’s a major part
Of your inner heart
And you don’t know what to do
Go see your honey
She’ll make it sunny!
Her smile so true
Will uplift you
For she’s a major part
Of your inner heart

Black Cat
How can you tell
When a black cat
Crosses your path
In the middle of
Of a dark foggy night?
Keep it turned on and
Have fresh batteries
In your flashlight!
When a black cat
Crosses your path

A Tribute to Edgar Alan Poe
It was a dark and foggy night
Complete with surreal light
Slinky shapes were oozing around
Hovering closely above the ground
Approaching sounds whispered eerily
As I hurried through the night stealthily
Turning the next corner, I came face to face
With a familiar door and quickly entered my place
I was finally away from the dark foggy night
Where I'd just about died from the fright!

The Shadow We Cast
The Shadow we cast
May be taller than we know
So be careful the example you set
Is the one you really want them to get!
