Wither the flowers
     In country lanes
As Autumn lours.
Wither the flowers
And daylight hours.
     As Summer wanes,
Wither the flowers
     In country lanes.

A Yellow Leaf

A yellow leaf falls
and hits me in the stomach:
last day of summer.

Megyn

Megyn Kelly
Has a flat belly,
And is as hot
As Oprah is not.

Poet and cleric,
Wrote numbers that were noble
When they weren't ignoble.

May or may not have danced the Monster Mash
While thinking
In rhyme and drinking.

Sheepish

Little Bo Peep
Has lost her sheep.
The big bad wolf is full
And sleeping on a bed of wool.
