Whimsical Whys

Whimsical Whys

October 21, 2013 My Poetry Writing 0
It’s the skeptic who needs to doubt himself,
It’s the loser who always wins.
The rich don’t know the meaning of wealth,
And the fish can’t find their fins.
…
Its the genius who needs to get a clue,
While the moron looks on and grins.
The priest will never heal you, but
The doctor can’t absolve your sins.
…
It’s the righteous man who stumbles,
Its the perfect man who’s flawed,
Anyone who’d rather talk than listen,
Just needs to get a job.
…
The celebrities are ugly,
So the one that I’ll adore
Is not inside my TV screen,
But standing at my door.
…
Prince Charming cleans the gutters,
Cinderella is my dog.
I’d only kiss a princess if
It turned me into frog.
…
Pigs grow wings when they love birds,
And wings grow birds when they love pigs.
The one who finds the treasure,
Is not the one who digs.
…
The popular are lonely,
The holy must be saved.
Maybe Samson was a foolish man,
But he sure looked better shaved.
…
The truth of the lie that they’re telling,
Can be guessed by the way they disguise.
And if you ask me why I am smiling,
It’s because love has made me wise.
…
You’ll never know what you might get,
But you know what you can be.
So be brave, reach up, stand tall, who knows–
You might turn into a tree.
