Mr Knight and Friends

, , ,

To paraphrase Forrest Gump: Humor is as Humor does. So, here's hoping that my humor does.


m5 Mr. Knight

My attempt at emulating Edward Lear.

***
How bright is Mr. Knight
When standing hat in hand;
His kite might take up flight
With an overfilling band.

Sir Knight would often fight
In modern la la land;
His plight was simply quite:
“You have to understand!”

A jeer with every beer
Whilst roasting sugar flan;
His peer would often sneer
And label man and clan:

“Tis well for one to dwell
On one's hot wheated berry;
When your sweet Aunt Isabel
Is really Uncle Harry.”

--
c99 Beer Walls

A short variation of that annoying---but
ever popular---high school bus trip song.

***
With this
Number cans, we
Can take one down and pass
It around all ninety-nine times
'Til done.


--
c145 Purple Cow?

A variation on the famous 'Purple Cow"
of Burgess.

***

Purple
Cow of Burgess:
I'd rather see you than
One fabled giant elephant
So pink.

--
c161 Who Kneads Leerning?

***

Who kneads
Leerning? Aye yam
Natureally smart an
Don't want no others telling how
Two speek.
