I have wanted to post a thread
unlike others we all have read.
The rules here this time,
all responses must rhyme
no matter what it is you have said.

Ha, I posted this in my own thread but here it is again:

I once saw a pic of a skoolie
I thought it was really quite coolie
The seller I trusted
His bus was quite rusted
Turns out that I was the foolie

This Sucks!
Retirement can't come fast enough.
The End.


Sorry, that's more of a red-neck modified Haiku, but I always sucked at English class.

A bus is a lovely machine,
whose virtues are clear to be seen.
Though we plan, buy, and build
the punch list's never fulfilled,
and tinker forever shall we.

I sit here and dream of the beach,
and a community I'm trying to reach,
it may sound like babble,
but I do like to dabble,
in a poem that's fun for each.

As I sit quarantined in my home
I dream of the places to roam
From mountains to streams
I explore in my dreams
Till my wife smacks me upside the dome

*Mic drop*

I love we can put in a poem
thoughts of skoolies, buses and home,
but through all this mess,
I sure must confess,
I'd like to get out and roam.

There was a man in Nantucket
His New England bus was
a rust-bucket
He scraped and he brushed
He brushed and he scraped
Then, finally he said
&%^$# it!

There was a young widow from Portland
Whos bus was too long so she shortened
She chopped and she welded
Its' rear end, she gelded
Then she buried the bits with her husband.

There once was a man with a Ford...
He converted because he was bored...
The brakes were hydraulic...
Attempting to frolic...
He flattened a Honda Accord....

This thread is fulfilling a dearth.
I read it, and I'm filled with mirth.
On bad I was dwelling
but this thread is telling,
and now I am doting on earth.

Imagine My Surprise

An e-mail I saw with my gear
a post to be seen right here
I looked and found
my last post not around
all I could think was "Oh dear!"

I bought a Bus

A school bus is sold,
because it got old.
And it’s smog,
creates nasty Fog.
Then our state,
makes us debate.
Just to upset us,
and create a reject bus!
