Ima Ryma Poems

An old fox and a young girl met
In the woods on a snowy day.
The young girl did not feel a threat,
And listened while the fox did say,
...

Hubby was so hard to buy for.
He never liked the gifts I gave.
For days after, I would be sore
From his beatings in rant and rave.
...

That lots of humans grouse about
As causing so much stress and strife.
And pigeons could care less no doubt.
...

Temptation I could not resist.
I was on insanity's brink.
My shoplifting sprees did persist.
Desperate, I went to a shrink.
...

To get good luck is knock on wood.
One theory says this is due to
Ancient cultures who understood

The Chicago night life - I love
All the smells, the lights and the sounds
On all sides, below and above.

Into the forest claimed by him,
Un unforgiving, orn'ry gnome

Be an elephant in the wild.
In nature's way this would be good.
In the late '50's as a child

Miss Betty White, we will miss you,
A ninety nine year well lived life.
With Allen Ludden, your love true,
Now heavenly husband and wife.
...

Pilipili, lion cub who
Does have a bone to pick with Mom
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo.
It's a bone sharing, all is calm.
