  5.     

Summer

In summer time when sun is high,
Gentle breezes touch the leaves
With butterfly kisses,
Telling secrets to the trees,
Blue skys, bluer than blue,
Green grass, greener than green.

Sunflowers turn their majestic heads
Following suns journey cross a cloudless sky
Yellow furze pop their pods
Perfuming the air,
Sending fertile seeds
On journey of reproduction.

Cattle stand knee deep
In lazy meandering streams,
Swishing their tails
At pestering flies
Dandelion seeds float by
Silent parachutists of the sky.

In the twilllight of the evening
Crows gather noisily to roost
Songbirds herald darkness,
Nervous rabbits nibble grasses
Night creatures stir to greet
Emerging night.
Darkness enfolds the land
In its black velvet hand....

  6.     

A Nonsence

Is the moon lazy when it lies on its back?
Was it the zebra who designed the piano,
White and black?
Is the elephant the wrong way round?
Small tail behind, large trunk in front, down to the ground

Why do monkeys hang by their tails?
Perhaps in the night at the moon they do gaze?
Does a tree cry whrnit falls to the ground?
How many pennies in an old pound?

Why do wolves howl at the moon?
Who in the rhyme ran away with the spoon?
Why does milk white into butter turn yellow?
When did Brendan write The Quare Fellow?

When Alexander discovered the phone
Whom did he call at home, all alone?
How many angels can sit on a pin?
Why was Oscar in jail locked in?

Why do pigs live in a sty?
Have you ever seen a pig in your eye?
When Wibur his plane he did fly,
Did he perhaps, touch the sky?

With the discovery of combustion internal,
Henry designed a machine, infernal.
A visit to the doctor with piles, so terrible,
A cure, perhaps, sometimes, herbal?

  7.     

another limerick

There was a young lady from Clonmel
Who wore a newspaper dress to a ball
But her dress caught on fire
And burnt her entire
Front page, sport section and all.

  8.     

Autumn Moon

Oh Autumn moon
Heavenly lantern in an angry sky,
Casts an eyrie shadow
Through black sailed galleons
Upon a leafy covered forest floor.

Oh Autumn moon,
Shining through naked trees,
Branches like tentacles
Sway in a western breeze.

Oh Autumn moon
Light a silver pathway
Upon a heaving sea
Guide my loves ship safely
Home to me, to me, to me
