Little Boy (2 years old fighting stage 4 cancer)

One day I had heard

About a little guy

He had gotten real sick

But no one knows why

His mother keeps writing

Letting us know

Her son will get better

Though it would be slow

This two year old boy

Can not comprehend

The needles and tubes

Will help him mend

He's never alone

His mom's always there

He's poked and prodded

It doesn't seem fair

Into his small body

The chemo flowed

The very first session

Along a long road

Riding his bike

On the hospital floor

He isn't aware

Of what he'll endure

More chemo he needs

At home he can't stay

But he will be home

On Christmas Day

Carter Dang

You're a tough little guy

With a family who loves you

They won't let you die

Modern Churches

The churches today

Can house many people

Though you won't find

A spire or a steeple

A Houston mega church

Had been a stadium

Their pastor is famous

And thousands will come

In modern churches

No church bells will chime

There is no bell tower

For someone to climb

No stained glass windows

The alters are plain

But those who come

Don't seem to complain

Those grand catherdrals

That they use to build

If you get to see them

I'm sure you'll be thrilled

You'll get caught

You're secret's not safe

You will get caught

When you beat your wife

And you say it's her fault

If you're rich and famous

And you sleep around

When you get caught

It could bring you down

It may take a long time

Finding out you did wrong

Fondling those boys

Who you told, "come along"

And funds you embezzled

It was you they trusted

Their money you took

Everyone was disgusted

If you view porno sites

If you pose in the nude

Your political term

May not be renewed

Don't rob any banks

And never molest

Otherwise you will hear

"you're under arrest"

Taylor Pork Roll

On the boardwalk

When I took a stroll

Soon I'd get near

Taylor Pork Roll

As I approached

This pork roll place

Hunger raged

Upon my face

One slice of pork roll

Was what I'd eat

At 60 cents

It was quite a treat

Pork roll slices

Grilled in a line

It didn't take long

Before I'd get mine

Perfectly cooked

And put on a bun

I'd eat with catsup

Until I was done

Evelyn Greenwood

You sure made my day

For the Taylor Pork Roll

You sent my way

Karaoke Singers

Karaoke singers

Don't appeal to me

Are they wanna bees

Singing songs for free

Some sing very good

Others are real bad

Countless songs are sung

When they're done I'm glad

Karaoke singers

They like what they do

Singing famous songs

And entertaining you

Feet for fish

The fish were nipping

At my bare feet

While in their tank

My feet were a treat

Tiny fish swimming

Swarming to eat

Surrounding my toes

And the soles of my feet

On Mykenos Island

My feet fed the fish

Unlike having fish

Placed on my dish

For fifteen euros

My feet became prey

To try something new

I'd eagerly pay

Three desserts - Star Princess, Horizon Grill

Three desserts

Are on my plate

I'll eat them all

Aware of my fate

Three little pieces

Of cake and pie

I'll take for dessert

I must tell you why

I cannot resist

So many choices

Take me, take me

I hear their voices

I've already paid

For this buffet

So three desserts

Will be on my tray

The walking I do

Will not justify

That chocolate cake

That piece of pie

I won't even think

About gaining weight

On this cruise I'll put

Three desserts on my plate

By, Randee Saber 9/11/2011

Traveling

I'm going on vacation

To unfamiliar places

And thousands that I'll see

Are unfamiliar faces

My suitcase is all packed

Just one the airlines say

And if it's overweight

More money I will pay

I have anxiety

I'm going far away

The sights I want to see

At home I cannot stay

My husband wants to go

He's really so excited

As soon as we arrive

I'm sure I'll be delighted

A European cruise

How foolish to complain

The worst part of the trip

Is being on a plane

By, Randee Saber 8/30/11

Music

Rap, jazz

Rhythm and blues

Elevator music

Makes you snooze

Country Western

Rock and roll

Listen to music

While taking a stroll

Famous singers

Over the years

The Beatles and Elvis

Brought girls to tears

Always new singers

Their music we'll play

Your favorite songs

Will brighten your day

By, Randee Saber 8/18/11

I hate to exercise

I hate to exercise

I'm physically unfit

I hardly take a walk

Because I'd rather sit

To climb a flight of stairs

I'll seek the elevator

And if you choose to climb

See you later alligator

I never walk too far

When in a parking lot

I've often had to wait

For a good parking spot

The treadmill is a bore

You're always in one place

I have to hold on tight

While walking a slow pace

The stationary bike

It's not too fun to ride

I have a bicycle

That I should ride outside

I exercise in water

The workout's really great

The class is one long hour

I make sure I'm not late

The calories I burn

I'm hoping they're enough

Swim class makes me hungry

I will eat too much stuff

What is your favorite thing?

Your favorite movie

Your favorite song

Your favorite friend

Who tags along

Your favorite color

Your favorite team

Your favorite pie

Topped with ice cream

Your favorite restaurant

Your favorite perfume

Your favorite chair

In your living room

Your favorite number

It may be thirteen

Your favorite soap

To get you clean

The Carousel

Step on up

And choose your horse

No need to fear

He'll stay on course

Hold onto the reins

The ride starts out slow

But after a while

Away you'll go

Up and down

Around and around

Your feet should never

Touch the ground

Beautiful horses

Encircle the ride

Another horse

Will be by your side

Regardless of age

The ride is still fun

Around and around

And soon you'll be done

The carousel

An awesome sight

When taking a ride

It's pure delight

Tea for two

Tea for two

And two for tea

Two to tango

You and me

Two hands they say

Are better than one

A table for two

A pair has more fun

Two eyes, two ears

One mouth, one nose

Two arms and legs

Ten fingers and toes

Two sides to a story

That's very true

A set of twins

An now they're through

Osama bin Laden is dead - Sunday, May 1, 2011

There was a special broadcast
Osama bin Laden was dead
This news was quite a shock
Osama was shot in the head

On Sept. 11th his followers
Waged war on the U.S.A..
Two jets flew into the Towers
On a pleasant 2001 day

The worst attack by terrorists
For a cause they willingly died
Bisecting two great towers
With thousands of people inside

Both towers fell and crumbled
While the Pentagon was hit
And passengers on flight 93
Fought back and wouldn’t submit

Though almost ten years later
Osama bin Laden was killed
A covert operation planned
Their mission was fulfilled

It might take quite a while
To capture our enemies
But we will show the world
They can’t do what they please

I'm here in Cyberspace

I’m here in cyberspace

You cannot see my face

Your bank account I'll trace

Because it won’t erase

It’s in a big briefcase

Your house, I know the place

I even know your race

Your emails I will trace

At home or your workplace

Your privacy I’ll chase

And problems that you face

I’ll track you everyplace

You’re in my database

I live in Cyberspace

I brought my new suitcase

Out here is my home base

Your life can change in an instant

Your life can change
When you least expect
Because our lives
Are not perfect

A spouse gets sick
A sudden death
She says good-bye
With her last breath

They had a good life
And didn’t know why
He seemed so healthy
So why did he die

Who will die first
Who will die last
Who will suffer
Who will die fast

We can’t predict
We’ll never know
When it’s our turn
When we have to go

But those who survive
Their lives will change
And living alone
Will now seem strange

Make a donation

Make a donation

To those without food

They live far away

With their large brood

For a dollar a day

A child can be saved

Where they play in the dirt

And streets aren’t paved

Preventing starvation

Has made you aware

When you make a donation

It shows that you care

But if you’re trying

To make ends meet

Who will help you

When you’re without heat

No foreign donations

Will come your way

You can not survive

Without any pay

No advertisements

Explaining your plight

Your job went to China

That’s really not right

It’s nice to be helpful

To those who are poor

But in our own country

Why do they ignore

Whataburger

Hamburger patties
Are easy to make
They don’t cost much
This chopped up steak

Eat them rare
Or eat them well done
And put them on
A freshly baked bun

Fast food restaurants
Will make burgers quick
And you can decide
Which burger to pick

They’re easy to eat
When you’re in a hurry
But are they healthy
Many will worry

Hamburger restaurants
They all specialize
Add what you want
Eat them with fries

You may pay a lot
For a hamburger meal
At a fast food place
Get a meal deal

We love eating burgers
Billions are sold
To eat when we’re young
To eat when we’re old

They met their Prince Charming

Snow White was a beauty
Seven dwarfs she’d befriend
When kissed by a Prince
Her sleeping spell would end

Cinderella's fairy mother
Helped her get to the ball
When a Prince found her shoe
He amazed them all

Sleeping Beauty fell asleep
While at the spinning wheel
When kissed by a Prince
This spell he’d repeal

If a real Prince charming
You may happen to meet
When he gives you a kiss
You'll be swept off your feet

Guys and Gals

When you call us guys
I will take offense
I say, "we're ladies"
That's my defense

You can call us girls
You may even say gals
But we're not guys
We're not your pals

We don't call men gals
We won't even try
If we called them gals
We might get a black eye

By, Randee Saber 1/22/11

You have nice hair

You have a lot of hair
It's thick and very straight
It's easy to take care of
Your date will never wait

Your hair's a pretty color
It's very bright and red
No matter how it's styled
It looks good on your head

You're a platinum blonde
And men will often stare
Blondes do have more fun
Since you bleached your hair

Your curly, frizzy hair
It's as black as night
It costs so much to style
To make it look alright

Your hair has now turned gray
It must have been your fate
It really doesn't matter
It still makes you look great

I won't peel potatoes

I won’t peel potatoes
It’s too hard to do
And ironing clothes
I’m through with that too

I won't bake cookies
Cupcakes or pies
I'm not Betty Crocker
I won't win a prize

I won’t wash my car
While I’m outside
Cause inside a carwash
My car will ride

I won’t answer the phone
Unless I can see
On caller I.D.
If the call is for me

I won’t send a thank you
That I have to write
I’ll type you an email
Is that impolite

I won’t give up shopping
For clothing and shoes
And eating chocolate
I'll never refuse

By, Randee Saber 1/16/11

Underneath your uniform

Underneath your uniform
Most would never know
You’re a real good athlete
A football you will throw

Underneath their uniforms
Arms covered with tattoos
To fight our country’s battles
These heroes won’t refuse

Policemen in their uniforms
Be sure to be polite
Even when in plain clothes
They'll still break up a fight

A bridal gown’s a uniform
They mostly look the same
A strapless gown that’s white
She’ll change her maiden name

People who wear uniforms
It shows us what they do
Pilots, nurses, postmen
Plus the clean-up crew
