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!!

Just like Minnie has her Mickey,
And ole Chip his Dale.
The Captain has Tennille,
And a hammer has a nail!

I guess we're pretty lucky
That poetry is your bag,
What on earth would we do
Without Balladeer and Toerag?


p.s.  Nope, I counted nothing!

Your sense of rhyme and humor is unmatched, anywhere...can't wait to see Toerag's response to this one.  LOL!

Oh, thankfully so
We must have our Toe
For lacking presence
We’d fail in balance
Toe Yin hemisphere
For Yang Balladeer

Yes! What's a battle with everyone on the same side.

A poet must leave traces of his passing not proof.

If you didn't have your "Toe"
You'd stumble with words, you'd have nobody
fun to pick on and be mean to, LongJohn stays in bed with Lorelei all day, just what would you do for kicks? You don't have a woman, (haven't had one in years), your blow up doll has deflated, you got that Cialis that guarantees you four hours of erection, and you sit around and wonder what you're going to do with the remaining 3 hours and 58 minutes. Yassee? Yassee how important it is to have Toe?

You certainly keep us smiling Mike but I'm sure Toe can take it.
