Timericks from stories in today's Wall Street Journal.

 




Brazil’s Vice President Admits Mistakes in Fighting Amazon Deforestation.

In Brazil the Amazon is fading fast away;

the government's impatient for a quick and clean payday.

Once the forest's gone for good the present politicians

will remove to Switzerland to check on ski conditions.




U.S. Pulls Back on Quickly Returning Migrant Children to Home Countries.

Welcome, little children, to the great big USA --

unfortunately we cannot permit you long to stay.

So pack up all your teddy bears and wipe away those tears;

we'd rather have you grow up with your gangster-ridden peers.




China Launches Experimental Spaceplane.


China's gone to outer space

and will build a great moon base.

Then to Mars, and Venus, too,

where she'll start a barbecue.

Uncle Sam had better wake

to his stingy dumb mistake!
