MeatballA Poem by john l smith simple snack Harvey
McDyke Went on
a hike First
making a lunch He’d really
like Fried
bananas with cream to start And
soup to go with all But the
best thing he’d eat all day Would
be his scrumptious meatball Made on
a whim With
all his favorites thrown in; A
turtle shell that rings like a bell A squirrel
tail found on a trail A
tinker bell that sounds quite swell Carrots
all chopped Corn
all popped Lettuce,
tomatoes hung from the vine A
Narwhal nose that lookin too fine Two
twinkle toes with nails which glow Chocolate
chips in chewy bits One
bunny butt he just picked up One
coconut with milk to sup Two
rose hips with pretty lips Baked
potato skin that's quite thin Sheared
sheepskin clean and trim Chicken
wings Onion
rings which makes eyes sing Turtle
eyes and their thighs Fried
eggs, Frogs
legs, And spuds from
the tin Three
apples cores Four mad
boars A pear but not a pair A
banana recently skinned Four
wieners, Cobbed
corn An
orange and a beet Five
bats feet And
licorice mixed right in Plums
off a tree Two
fish from the sea Two
chicken legs A
buffalo tail A belly
button from a sperm whale Pizza carried
in a plastic pail A pot
full of beans A sack
of fresh greens Five
ounces of kale An octopus arm now doing no harm Mince
meat bought on sale A tiger
by the tail A male
snail Some
clams crawling through jams Some
berry jams A rose
hip or two And a plateful of stew Waffle
and bread Lettuce,
a head Cherries,
nuts Used
cigarette butts Pumpkin
skin when the candle went dim A
geisha girls garter A
pathetic old plodder A
bottle of gin which makes head spin A
daffodil bulb Along
with its twin Avocado
out of the skin A pair
old boots Palm
tree roots Onion
shoots A mouse
that scoots An owl
that hoots Duck feet for a treat Cooked with Rhinoceros meat Hard
boiled Ostrich egg Little
lambs left legs A
hummingbird a salamander herd A
healthy hawk And a
baboon able to walk Three
pigeon toes An
elephant nose A pumas
pout A
lizards snout Left
over lettuce leaves Laying
about A loons
lonely wail A dogs
wagging tail Another
hiker Gone
off the trail Three
apple cores A
bumblebee nest No one
adores A
recipe book With
the wrong look A wrong number cucumber A fickle pickle A
beetle A
beagle A
gaggle of geese A
pretzel Fluffy
sheep fleece Special
cream cheese Three
long Llama knees Cold
cold beer Tail of
a deer Rear of
a steer More pears
in pairs Black
noses from bears Salamander
sisters Sliding
down stairs A
horses mane Wilderness
game Oysters Buffalo
wings Dozen
dumplings Two
tiny ducklings Clams Sugar,
just one lump Slugs
from under a stump Ants in
the pants which caused a red rump A dozen
eggplants A
daffodil stem A pig
in a pen An overwrought
wren More juice
jams A two hump camel and a one humper two Baboon
cheeks A
parrot that speaks Fish
from creeks left to dry for three weeks A
Christmas tree stump Pounds
and pounds of Pineapple
pulp Which
he then swallowed All in
one gulp © 2019 john l smithReviews
