The Pane Of Homophones

Sum folks dont knead it.

Other folks dew.

Eye’m speaking of coarse

Of voice two text apps. Dew ewe?

Typoes

I’m a very lucky guy!

I got word from the IRS…

They’re giving me an Audi!

A brand new car? Oh yes!

One Letter Off

I said she smelled flagrant

And her mood got all wrecked.

It didn’t help when I said to her

“Autocorrect.”

Wrong Stool

I asked “How do I get taller?”

They said “stand on a stool.”

Now my shoes smell like crap

And I feel like a fool.

Prelude to a Full-Body Cast

There once was a girl that I knew

That I really wanted to do.

She said “I’m with someone.”

Of the guy, I made fun.

I didn’t know that guy was you.

Wood Chips

There’s a big pile of wood chips

Outside my apartment

Just three floors down

From my balcony.

Now Autumn leaf piles

Are my fun department,

And all that small timber

Looked just the same to me.
To I climbed three stories

To the roof of my flat

Thinking of stories

I’d soon have to tell.

In hindsight, I was stupid.

I realize that,

But despite the mistake,

My jump went quite well.
I’m writing this poem

From my private suite

At Saint Andrew’s center

For injuries from small boards.

I’m hosting some bloggers

Who seem pretty neat,

And they say they’ll refer me

To the Darwin Awards.
If you ever doubt that life is good,

Jump into a pile of tiny wood.

Word Choice

I always thought I was the type of pig
Who built his house of bricks,
But on my online dating profile
I referred to women as “chicks.”

I don’t know how I’ll find true love,
After dropping such a bomb.
I guess the fire that burned my bridge
Started with a match.com

Ambrosia and Nancy

I went out to a party

Last Sunday, on my trip.

While there, I saw a woman,

And my heart, it did a flip.

 

She looked so darn fancy,

In her heels and her pearls.

Her eyes were bright as starlight,

Her hair fell down in curls.

 

She smiled at me last Sunday,

From way across the room.

I had to go and meet her.

My passion was in bloom.

 

“Hello David,” she said

As flashed a perfect smile.

My heart heard songs of lovebirds,

Like it hadn’t for a while.

 

Turns out her name’s Ambrosia,

And she likes nerdy men,

Poets and musicians.

I was her perfect ten!

 

She led me to her lodgings,

Where we enjoyed some wine.

I gazed into her perfect eyes,

And she gazed into mine.

 

That night was full of passion.

Hey, come back here Nancy!

Who cares if she’s your sister?

She just looked so darn fancy.
