Crisis, what crisis? the minister asked, looking on,
There is no crisis; it’s a part of my plan,
A plan for better water for one and for all,
Meanwhile, just BOIL IT; that is all.

Time will come, time will go
Time shall reap, that time has sown
Time comes slowly, time goes fast
Time will linger, time outlasts
Time sees all, time knows best
Time remembers, time never forgets
Time will hide, time will reveal
Time will open, time will seal
Time brings hope, time brings fear
Time brings distance, time draws near
Time will help, time will hinder
Time will shine, time turns to cinder
We forget about time, yet it’s all we would know
In time, there is everything, and time will show

There was an old man with a beard,
Who said, “It is just as I feared,
Two owls and a hen,
Four larks and a wren,
Have built their nests in my beard!”

On New Year’s Day
By Kenn Nesbitt
On New Year’s Day a year ago,
I started off the year
by making resolutions
that were probably severe.
***
I said I’d save my money,
as this seemed so very wise.
I vowed I would improve my health.
I swore I’d exercise.
***
I stated I would do my homework
every single day.
I’d brush my teeth religiously
to ward off tooth decay.
***
I’d eat my fruits and vegetables
and keep my bedroom clean.
I’d treat my sister kindly
though she’s often very mean.
***
My resolutions lasted me
about a half a day.
I promised I would keep them
but I broke them anyway.
***
So now I’m fat and penniless.
My homework’s overdue.
My sister’s mad. My teeth are bad.
My room is messy too.
***
And yet I think I may have found
the best of all solutions,
and this year I’ve resolved
to make NO resolutions.

Stories for children and young at heart adults
Dunking the Mouse, Oh, Dunking the Mouse,
What can be better than dunking the Mouse?
Be it with a fine friend like the Rabbit, so stout,
Or on my old lonesome, I love dunking the Mouse.
**************
I open the pot and stick his head in,
And before he’s awoken he’s half the way in.
With Rabbit a-helping, we finish the job,
Then put the lid on, though Mouse is beginning to sob.
**************
‘Oh please let me out’, he implore us, so meek,
But why should we do that when the tea tastes so sweet?
‘Oh give me a cup of that heavenly brew’,
Says Rabbit to me, ‘and a jam tart for you’.
**************
I pour out two cups and we sit down anew,
With the tea and the tarts – and with Mouse in the brew,
Until Alice strolls by, and unsettles our ruse,
Saving Mouse from his fate and us from the noose.

Stories for children and young at heart adults.
There was an old woman,
Who lived in a shoe.
She had so many children,
She didn’t know what to do.
She had no idea,
How to rear them at all,
So she sent them to boarding school,
And then had a ball.
