Engelbert Effleflump For Dr Seuss ContestEngelbert Effleflump put on his disguise
Climbed in his orcetector and rose in the skies
For his mum hated flying and must never know
That Engelbert’s job was in an aerial show
Poor Engelbert hated deceiving his mother
He’d go out of the house under cloud cover
He’d loop the loop...

Hello Dr Seuss Do Come InHELLO DR. SEUSS – DO COME IN
There’s a BEAR
On my STAIR,
And I wish it
Wouldn’t STARE!
There’s a WUPBOARD,
In my CUPBOARD
And a DOX
In my BOX,
I know there’s a DARSKET,
In my BASKET
And perhaps a ZUBOON sitting
Next to my BABOON
Who resembles a BUFFOON!
Then there's SCRUB
Who lives...

Dragon and Dr Seuss"Oh, The places You'll Go!"
Dragon was in a slump as the kids all left to go back to school.
So I read to him:“All the Places You’ll Go!” by good Dr Seuss.
He loved “Oh, the things you will find if you don’t stay behind!”
Now, the school...

Light Verse
Can You Keep a Secret- Dr Seuss ContestCan you keep a secret?
‘cause I’ve got one to share
I’ve a friend called Fazzbot
With green and purple hair.
Fazzbot met me yesterday
The day before today
Fazzbot is an alien
SSShhhhh!!
It’s a secret by the way.
He’s like a purple dragon
And a penguin too
He’s got green stripes
All down his...

Don'T Cry Because It's Over - Dr Seuss Quote ContestDon't cry because it's over, smile because it happened
memories will save the precious times.
Don't weep because we are no longer together
focus on the many times we were.
Remember the hills of life we climbed together
both searching for what we didn't have.
Not realising it was here within...

Verse
One Single Dish, One Single Pea - Dr Seuss Contest InspiredOne single dish with one single pea
The sign on the door said,
Come one and come all
We welcome the short
and we welcome the tall
From the east or the west
or some place in between
Whether yellow or red
or a shade of mint green
The fickle, the faint,
the fun...

Dr Seuss ParanoiaDid you ever have the feeling there's a man in your can?
Or a ball down the hall with an eye to spy?
Sometimes I'm sure I have ants on a tour of my house without cure.
And sometimes I know there's a pup in my cup, yelling...

Visiting Dr SeussA furry little caterpillar
Crawled onto my knee
He turned into a butterfly
And landed in a tree
Beside him was a humming bird
Sucking pollen from a rose
When down fell an inchworm
That landed on my nose
A little baby bunny rabbit
Hopped onto my lap
When I started...

I Need a Cup of SeussThe neon light flashed,
open, open, open,
so in we both went,
right after eloping,
The cat waiter in the hat,
gave us menus where we sat,
ordering some eggs and toast,
the cat smiled as if to boast,
He came back with our plates,
and the eggs to us looked fake,
because they were...

Visiting Dr Seuss CollaborationI finally got my most exuberant, elaborate wish
To talk to the poet who immortalized red and blue fish,
The maestro who made a living from books of green eggs and ham,
A man who made the Star Belly Sneetches great, good, and quite glam.
Of course I am...

A Person's a Person- Dr Seuss"A person's a person, no matter how small"
No matter how fat, or how skinny, or tall
A person's a person, who lives by a dream
Who needs your respect, to boost self-esteem
"A Person's a person, no matter how small"
So don't use a label; don't make that one...

Voices Or Dr Seuss Meets the SchizophrenicVoices voices telling me
Where to go
Who to see
What to say
And who to be
How to think
What to believe
What to buy
And what to spend
Where to start
And where to end
Who to hate
And to friend
When exactly to be straight
And when exactly, they say I should...
