Poetry to bring a smile to your lips...
There are many amusing events which happen in our lives. Looking back on them warms our heart, forces a smile to appear on our lips, and reminds us of those so very important events in our life. This is what makes the memories all the more wonderful; being able to hold them captive in our heart forever.
Poets are all over, it is within each and every one of us to write the words takes us right back to those special places in time. I hope that this lens will help to warm your heart and bring a smile to your lips. These are a few of my special memories.
Hope you enjoy your visit, and please, stop back again when you need another smile.... who couldn't use another one of those ;)

Pet Humor: Hide-and-Seek

I feel a tickle from whiskers
and a little wet nose,
I look down at my feet
and yep, there she goes.
I can feel my face,
my lips give a grin,
I get up from my chair;
here we go again.
I tippy-toe quietly
down the hall,
stop by the door,
press up against the wall.
Peak into the same room
she went to before,
there she is in the corner
curled up on the floor.
Paws over her eyes
tail up in the air,
since she cannot see me
she thinks I am not there.
I creep up behind her,
finger is ready,
I'm almost there
just hold it steady.
I tap on her back
she jumps up in the air,
she turns and then stops,
giving me that same stare.
She just tries so hard
but can't figure it out,
I give her a giggle
cause it's the fun it's about.
-Jolene Belmain

Baby Humor: Puddles

Puddles, puddles
all around,
in the bathroom
on the floor.
Puddles, puddles
everywhere,
in the foyer
on the stairs
on the carpet
on the floor,
oops I'm sorry,
I did one more.
I don't know how
this thing works,
every time I walk
it seems to squirt.
All the puddles
I can make,
wonder if I
could build a lake?
-Jolene Belmain

Oops!

Kid Humor: Search for Oscar

I walk with my mom,
hand in hand,
looking for a
garbage can.
I see every silver can
as if they were gold,
looking to see
what treasures they hold.
My mom tries to walk past
but I let out a shriek,
but mom I might miss him,
this could be his street!
My mom rolls her eyes
but still plays the game,
let's me believe
he's here all the same.
I look all around
for his shade of green,
but still it is yet;
yet to be seen.
He's got to be here
I'll find him one day.
I'll tell him my name,
we'll laugh and we'll play.
With every garbage can
we stop and I crouch,
looking inside
for oscar the grouch!
Lifting the lid,
excitement about to burst,
peering inside,
but finding the worst.
He's not there either,
we'll try the next one,
with every can
it's more and more fun
Those big shiny cans,
what wonders they hold.
The imagination's a great thing
when you are four years old.
-Jolene Belmain

Toilet Humor: Black hole

We have in our house
a real black hole
it sucks everything up
even my fishy "Cole".
I'm afraid to go near it
incase it gets me
for it is a black hole
and you'll disappear, you see.
It makes such strange noises
at night while I sleep
I'd wake up and look
but I'm too scared to peek.
Every morning when
I open my eyes
I see everything is still there
much to my surprise.
My family thinks I'm weird
one day they'll all see
that it's a black hole
and I'm not so crazy.
Please never make me sit
upon that black hole
I don't know what's down there
in that toilet bowl.
-Jolene Belmain

Is anyone down there?
Life Humor: Day at the beach

Wake up to the day
checking my clock
and oh my goodness
almost died of shock!
Slept in too darned late
right past the news,
skipping my shower
I head straight for my shoes.
Driving my car
eating a peach
looking in my mirror
I let out a screech!
Oh how I long
for a day at the beach.
Get out of my car
assessing the dent
I just acquired
while paying my rent.
Swap numbers and papers
checking content
I swear that this day
is here to torment.
Go to insurance
and give them my speech,
then sit and I listen
to all that they preach.
Oh how I long
for a day at the beach.
Head down to the store
pick up food and some bleach,
grab scratch and some lotto,
a couple of each.
Checking my numbers
and always just out of reach
is my long, long awaited
day at the beach.
-Jolene Belmain
