Poem 202 - Painting It Yellow?

He appeared healthy, but a bit Sallow was Mr. Nate
Though I would like to, unfortunately I can't illustrate
And when Mr. Jake asked him, "What happened dear fellow?"
Falsely he said, "Oh Jake, can't you see I've painted my face yellow?"

Mocking Mrs. Maryanne by taking her mighty, metal, man made pan

But mischievous monkeys came back, for more bananas they wanted to take

Poem 109 - Banana Peels


A Banana Peel was thrown down by Mr. Pegg
He himself slipped and broke his leg
He was hospitalized for one week
But still to throw peels on the floor he has the cheek

Poem 88 - Another Mother?


Our Mother went to a beauty saloon
She didn't come back too soon
When she came with new look we didn't recognize her
Thought it was some mad and silly stranger
