Poem of the Week:
The Fools
The Fool on the hill and the Fool in the hole
Fought one another and vied for control.
The Fool on the hill ate up all he surveyed.
The Fool in the hole claimed the land 'neath his spade.
And the hole became huge as the fool stole the earth.
And the hill became weak as the fool gained in girth.
Then at last when the weight became too much to bear
And emptiness displaced the dirt that was there,
The whole thing collapsed sending dust through the air.
Leaving two fools one grave — that they peacefully share.

Two Stars on a Limb
Twinkle-Dee and Twinkle-Dum were resting in a tree
"The night is bright," said Twinkle-Dum, "Indeed," said Twinkle-Dee.
"I never knew the light we threw could reach so very far.
I guess sometimes a change of view can show how bright you are."

Eyeball Golf
My first shot was disastrous,
I shanked it in the pond.
My second eyeball brought more luck —
I plopped it on the lawn,
Teed it up and hit it true —
A par 4 hole-in-one!
Alas, I couldn't see the shot.
My eyeballs all were gone.

The Pickle-Me-Pillow
I took me a nap on the Pickle-Me-Pillow As vinegar winds blew a chill.
