When lettuce is grown in a crate
and boxes my leeks propagate,
there isn't the charm
that comes from a farm;
my appetite don't germinate.

Paul Ryan
There was a young pol named Paul Ryan
who didn't find Trump very tryin'.
He said "Even bigots
can turn on the spigots
and money just keep on supplyin'!"

When newspapers ruled all the earth
reporters found there was no dearth
of work and of play,
plus plenty of pay.
But now it's like giving of birth . . .

The circus is
The circus is more than an art.
It's part of America's heart.
Clowning or juggling,
why is it struggling?
To old and young it's like Head Start.

The Hawaiian Shirt
O pardon me for being curt,
but I want a bright Maui shirt.
I'd look really spruce
in something with puce,
that makes fashionista's eyes hurt.

The avocado
When eating the avocado
I'm looking for taste bravado.
Don't engineer, please,
this song from the trees
and make it an off-key Mikado!

Sean Hannity
Sean Hannity recently said
the Fourth Estate nearly is dead.
He ought to say it;
since he did slay it
with stories as soft as white bread.

There once was a nurse from Grand Junction
From the Wall Street Journal:
OAKLAND, Calif.—The 185,000-strong National Nurses United is the scrubs-wearing symbol of a split in the Democratic Party that threatens to inflict damage at the presidential nominating convention in Philadelphia.
While Hillary Clinton tries to bring the nomination battle to a close and unite the party before the general election showdown with presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump, the nurses are having none of it. They are looking for a fight.
There once was a nurse from Grand Junction
who thought it her paramount function
to needle Ms Clinton
and keep her from sprintin'
to the White House with such unction.
The TV Reporter
The TV reporter pretends
to follow legitimate trends.
But if they film sex
and lots of car wrecks
they soon own a Mercedes Benz.
