Samson had Delilah
Who betrayed him with her spiel.
Road Runner had Coyote out
To have him for a meal.
Holmes had Moriarty
As his ever-present foe.
Batman had the Joker...
Here at Passions - we've got Toe.

Mighty oaks have dry-rot,
Orchids get a fungus.
That pales by comparison
To what we have among us.
Heads of hair have bald spots
We comb so it doesn't show.
Titanic had the iceberg....
Here at Passions - we've got Toe.

Ain't it strange how Mother Nature
Loves to mix and match?
Throw a fly in every ointment
Just to see us scratch?

Oceans have pollution.
Dogs and cats come down with fleas.
What we have is so much worse
Than any one of these...
Tweety had that "puddy tat"
To fill his life with woe
Riding Hood had big, bad wolf..
At Passions - we've got Toe!!

Such a way with words! Now who has the toe picture? LOL

A great way to introduce the Great and Wonderful Toe (don't look behind the curtain!)

At Passions we have Toe
the savior of this site
No matter what is wrong
ol' Toe will put it right.

You say your dog run off?
Your woman left you too?
Ol' Toe will find a way
to bring 'em back to you.

A superheros' style,
the  man's so debonair
that even Balladeer
I'm 'fraid just don't compare.

His literary skills
by far outweigh the best
of him I stand in awe
most surely that's no jest.

At least one day a year
I'd say he's pretty cool,
the other three six four?
Oh geez! I'm late for school!

Now if we could just dig up LJA and show
the newbies how it's really done...

I just can't wait for these delightfully humorous little poems. So funny.
