There was Hercules and Samson
Superman and Batman,
The apeman known as Tarzan
Xena and the Spiderman

Balladeer and Wonderwoman
Mighty Mouse and Sinbad
None of them compare to
The Amazing Toerag.

Floating like a butterfly,
Stinging like a bee
With hands so lightning fast
They'd dazzle old Ali.

Handsome and quite modest
Sweet and very kind,
Quiet and so humble
With dillusioned mind.

A heroic poetry expert
There's nobody more braver,
A mind you could compare to
Your average 5th grader.

Spiderman's like Balladeer,
(Though Bally fights no evil)
A spider bit the Spiderman
'Bally' by a dung beetle.

Good morning, Toe the Amazing!

"Handsome and quite modest
Sweet and very kind,
Quiet and so humble"

~ with a 5-grader's mind!!!

I suppose that is why your humour is so
juvenile! ~ and hilarious!!!

I am surprised that Balladeer the Exterminator would have let a dung beetle get within a mile of his 'deer' behind!

Giving you a Valentine's Day hug,

Linda

Yup... I've always loved your humility. LOL And whatever your humor is like... it's wonderful. *G*

Thanks for the grins, witty one! Happy Valentine's Day! *S*

My neighbor, a 4 years old boy held his plastic tricycle over his head and proudly said to me "look, I am the superman!" How cute!!! I love him dearly.
