GET OUT THAT DOOR

When the weather is cold or poor
And your muscles are a little sore,
By far the hardest part
Is at the very start --
Getting out through that door.

A good run is out there in store.
So, running friends, I implore,
Think of the runs you've had
That weren't all that bad
Once you got out that door.

You've got the gumption
For running resumption.
Call up gumption more
To pass through that door.
It won't cause consumption.

This you've done before.
This you can do once more.
Though your legs be gimpy,
Don't you be too wimpy
To get on out that door!

THROUGH THE WALL

Can you recall
Hearing your parents crawl?
How were your construing
What they were doing
When you listened through the wall?

MOTHER OR DAUGHTER

Of course the daughter would be stronger
And would last somewhat longer.
But I don't thinks I could loose
Whichever I might choose
If I didn't wrong her.

LADIES' LEGS

Lovely ladies' legs I admire.

They oft set my heart on fire.

While boobs are always covered,
Legs are oft discovered,
Depending on attire.

THE WEALTHY

Of wealth some folks have quite a bit.
In but one room at a time can they sit.
This is a problem they have to face.
But they can wear a million-dollar necklace
As in their room they sit.

GROWING OLD

Growing old is hard to get used to.
You're not doing as well as you used to.
But you're doing better than you will
As you skid further down the hill.
Thus spake Zarathustra.

SUDDEN SAD ENDINGS

On this in life you can depend:
Sometimes as you round a bend,
Something that to you is dear
That contributes to your cheer
Is suddenly at its end.

It can happen in any season
And indeed for sundry reasons.
You're in the middle of a yawn
When without warning gone
Is something very pleasin'.

When you reflect upon
This that you can count on,
When this happens to you,
Clearly what you must do
Is somehow continue on.
