I apologize!

I apologize! by Rob Hood©2-2-10

I'm sorry for the wretched way that i acted.

For all the anger and sadness my words impacted.

If I could only go back in time

and delete my words of dirt and grime,

I could have avoided making you sad

I'd feel much better, yes I'd be glad!

But alas that cannot be.

So you can see the idiot that's me.

Growing old can be such a pain

When there are many signs of rain

So keep yourself forever nimble

Make great health your symbol

I'll put this frankly!

I'll put this frankly! by Rob Hood© 7-22-09

A very strange fellow named Frank

took a potion to make himself

bigger, but he shrank!

He complained to it's maker

who professed he shouldn't

have been it's taker.

He had a mix up in

prescriptions to thank!

A few limericks

A joke in the making by Rob Hood©7-10-09

Al Franken was never funny on Saturday night.

His humor was not very bright.

But I think that he'll begin

to give me a grin

when he appears on the C-SPAN site!


Hareless in Gaza by Rob Hood© 7-10-09


There once was a guy with no hair

Oh his pate was completely bare!

He never used a comb.

That utensil had no home.

It definitely had no use up there!

June Down The Drain by Rob Hood© 7-10-09

Oh when will the rain ever wane?

One would think that God would abstain

from taking a tinkle.

I’ll bet that’s a new wrinkle!

Until the water goes down the drain!


My Advice To Spammers by Rob Hood© 7-10-09

Dear spammers, I wish you’d take heed

to stop sending messages that prove

to us your greed!

You fill me with malice

because your sends are so callous!

To my spam filter I wish you godspeed!

Agency Ode by Rob Hood© 7-10-09

There once was an agent, quite tough

who made feel like I never got enough.

When I negotiated with him

my brain would begin to spin

and now it’s turning to fluff!

Crotchety Ode by Rob Hood© 7-10-09

A crotchety fellow named Rich

Was diagnosed with terminal itch

He searched for a way

that he’d feel okay

But he decided his life was a bitch

My trip out of town

My trip out of town by Rob Hood©6-30-09

I WENT FAR ON MY TRIP.

THEN I GOT LOST AND

COULDN'T GET A GRIP.

THOSE FELLOWS AT THAT

SERVICE STATION

WERE REALLY NICE!

THEY HELPED ME IMMENSELY

FOR ZERO PRICE.

BEFORE I GO ON ANOTHER JAUNT

I'LL BUY A GPS SYSTEM.

THE ELECTRONICS STORES

I WILL HAUNT.

WANDERING A4ROUND

IS NOT MY BIT.

NOT KNOWING WHERE TO GO

GIVES ME A FIT!

At my leisure

At my leisure by Rob Hood©5-20-09

I'M SITTING HERE IN THE SHADE

NOT FOLLOWING ANY ORDERS

THAT ARE BADE.

I'M ALONE AND I AM FREE

ENJOYING EVERYTHING

THAT I SEE!

MOMENTS LIKE THIS

ARE FULL OF GRACE

MAKING MY WORLD

A HAPPIER PLACE!

I ENJOY EACH

LITTLE PLEASURE

AS I SIT HERE

AT MY LEISURE!
