Edwina Purina Chow Dippity Do
Bent over to polish her Buster Brown shoe
But the polish therein was of toxic aroma
And Edwina Purina fell into a coma
No one knew what to do for they couldn’t awake her.
So the Doctor was summoned. (He suggested they shake her)
But yet she lay docile and still as could be
Then someone suggested, “Push her out of a tree!”
So they hoisted her up in a Giant Sequoia
And everyone helped — even Mike and Latoya!
All that was left was to give her a shove
And who better for that than the lieutenant gov?
Who ran on a platform of brotherly love
And never did falter when push came to shove
He shook that sequoia, he had him some muscle
(Attributed mainly to sprouts found in Brussel)
Well, the tree started shaking and then the wind blew
And Edwina Purina Chow Dippity Do . . .
Flew through the air like a bomber (long range)
And landed on top of the Foreign Exchange
She opened her eyes and everyone cheered
But to tell you the truth? It was all very weird!

Hahaha!!! I just love your drawings to accompany this poem! Please put together a book of all your poems for me to buy!
I’m going to do that. It’s on my to do list. My to do list is also my bucket list. What can I say? I’m more than a little lazy.
All that & no comment from Edwina?
Besides, if I lived with any of those, er, individuals, I think I’d keep my eyes shut too…
Nice poem, though, love those epic tales of grand heroism and, oh… wait…
Never mind.

LOL Dubious! Maybe Edwina will comment if there’s a part two to this tale. Although I’m not sure there will be as Edwina isn’t very interesting in and of herself I have a feeling.
This was so creative and threw in nature and politics, to boot! ha ha!
Oh I’m so glad you enjoyed it. I had a heck of a lot of fun writing it. It always amazes me the way the rhymes lead to a plot (of sorts). HA!
