Something is terribly wrong here

When I look I can’t see a thing

It’s more like a kaleidoscopic swirl

With colors that dance in a ring

Maybe I’m not using them right

I thought this would be so easy

But all they keep doing, is dripping

This whole thing is making me queasy

Then I heard someone yell to me

Something about being a dope

Now I realize exactly why

I’m using a Popsicle, as a periscope

They must have sneaked up on me

When I wasn’t paying attention

And now I’m wearing this silly dress

You can understand my apprehension

I know that Easter’s coming soon

But I still feel rather funny

You see, it doesn’t make much sense

To dress a dragon as a bunny!

Assuming she had all the time in the world
And life’s rules did not apply to her

She was frivolous, wasting every chance
As if minutes lost, could once again occur

Seconds, ticking ever so quickly, racing
Passing through the day, she didn’t notice

She spent her life, never seeing tomorrow
So completely blind, and out of focus

And when her time had passed her by
Still, she cared not for what she had lost

She wouldn’t believe she had no time left
She’d simply beg for more, no matter the cost

Watch out for a glass full of fizzy

Too much all at once makes you dizzy

Take your time, sip by sip

Be careful not to trip

In the loo, whilst freeing the whizzys

Two ladies hung out in a window

Dressed in their best lingerie

Complained about this one certain man

Who whistled, when walking their way

What do you think, one asked

I have no idea, said the other

Perhaps he fancies the clothes you wear

I’ve heard about this, from my mother!

Oh, you’re so silly, replied her friend

But maybe I’ll give him a shot

Why not, said the woman, dressed in brown

He seems to think purple is hot!
