I gave my snowman a hat
that my granny knit for me.
Unfortunately, she was still
attached to it, you see.
Now, my dear old granny
knits shivering in the snow.
The good news is
she only has a few more rows to go!

Gingerbread Mouse
What better for a mouse
than a gingerbread house
made of cookies and candy and icing?
Only eaves
made of cheese
could make it more enticing!

Sing to the Fairies
Sing to the fairies
a happy song
of butterflies and flowers
and the fairies will dance
with the ladybugs
on your rose petals
for hours!

My Son, Roy
Diddle, diddle, dumpling,
My son, Roy,
Is a very hungry boy.
Yesterday, he ate a yak-
And that was just his morning snack!

Dad, There's Something Strange About Mother
Dad, there's something strange about Mother.
Her lips have fresh bloodstains.
And when I asked her what's for dinner,
She said, "brains, brains, brains!".

Little Miss Muffett
Little Miss Muffett
Sat on a tuffett
Eating a plateful of mice.
Along came a cat
In a pink party hat
And said, "May I please have a slice?"

Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary
Mary, Mary,
Quite Contrary,
Round the cattle up.
Thunder's clappin',
Lightning's zappin',
Giddy-giddy-up!

My Mother is a Vampire
My mother is a vampire;
My father is a ghost,
So Halloween's the holiday
That we love the most!

Granny Gums Laffy Taffy
Granny gums Laffy Taffy.
She gums it all day and all night.
She sits in her rocker and giggles and gums-
It's quite a shocking site!

Granny Good is Coming:A Short and Silly Poem
Granny Good is coming.
Hide the mistletoe!
Her lips latch on like tentacles
And they won't let go!
