#64 - Week Off

I have one week of vacation
Away from my occupation.
So eff limericks,
I need a quick fix
Of Las Vegas relaxation.

#58 - Monday

Oh hello, my nemesis Monday...
Polar opposite of a fun day.
Let it not go unsaid:
To me, you are dead
And will forever be a shunned day.

Haiku #12 - Thanks?

oh, thirty pound bird
you've flown from plate to belly
now I'm the stuffed one

#53 - The Cough

My cough's into week number three.
Suffice to say it sucks to be me.
With a big "ahem!"
I hack up some phlegm
And my coworkers all turn and flee.

Haiku #11

10:30 p.m.
Who does the sun think he is?
I think I'll moon him.

Haiku #10

Hiking and biking.
All one needs is two strong feet.
Oh yeah... a bike too.

Limerick #47

These few months when we get some sun
Are the best times in Edmonton.
But summer's so fast
And once it has passed
Sightings of my bare legs will be done.

Limerick #44

On this strange blizzard of a birthday
I learned something 'bout the 4th of May.
I'll give you a clue:
"May the 4th be with you."
You guessed it - today's Star Wars day!

Haiku #8

Hockey season dies.
So why all the hockey sticks?
Ball hockey lives on.

Limerick #40

So after taking jabs at my boards,
JCI gives me a nice award.
Embarrased, I grinned,
"So sorry I sinned,
Please forgive my transgressions dear lord."

Limerick #39

I'm sipping on sweet freedom nectar
'Cause no more boards call me Director.
But now they ask, "Please
Stay on committees?"
So I'm not a complete defector.

Limerick #38

There once was a large Russian man
Who sang much better than I can.
He crooned "Trololo"
And swayed to and fro,
Then I was soon his biggest fan.

Limerick #35

What the heck did I do last night?!
Obviously I forgot to write.
However, this fail
Is really quit pale
Compared to my two month epic fight.

Limerick #33

I've got some leftovers for lunch
And I'm about to start to munch.
It's food from last night
But after one bite
It's got sandwiches beat by a bunch.

Limerick #32

On a whim I decided, "Screw it.
I'm just going to effing do it."
So folks, here it is.
I'm back in the biz.
2 months? That's some long overdue shit.

Haiku #6

Fingers touch keyboard.
Backspace caressed most often.
Poem is written.

Limerick #28

There's something that I need to take.
Let's call it a "holiday break."
In the year twenty-ten
I'll be back again
And many more poems I'll make.

Limerick #27

When my wife is wrapping a gift
She does it impressively swift.
I wish she could wrap
Up all of her crap
But if I asked she'd get pretty miffed.

Limerick #24

I'm literally falling asleep
Trying to write this mother bleep.
I should write in advance
So I can take off pants,
Jump in bed and start counting sheep.

Limerick #23

What the hell happened to December?
I swear yesterday was November...
In two weeks and a bit
I've done lots of shit,
Most of which I cannot remember.
