Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 Dance to Remember

Deserted on a desert isle,

I'm all alone  and feeling down.

A giant guinea pig with smile

Comes and takes away my sad frown.

The guinea pig extends a paw,

Inviting me to dance I guess.

This happening has me in awe,

But what the heck, so I say, "Yes."

The two of us do tiptoe through

The palm trees on the sandy beach,

Bright sun and blue sky o'er us two.

It is a dancing first for each.

Fondly recall this dancing jig,

Had with a giant guinea pig.

 Your Router's Point of View

Your Internet service goes down.

Who do you blame? The router - me.

You curse me through your lips of frown.

But the modem's where blame should be,

Cuz the modem brings Internet

Into your home, and then I do

Its routing, so don't get upset

When your service is stinkaroo.

As long as Internet comes in,

I always do its routing well

To all your devices you've been

Using and working me like hell.

I'm in your bathroom so would guess

You wanted an IP address.

 Forever Them

We the people are assured by

Them that They protect us from all

Deplorables of us who try

To make the good world order fall.

The truth is only what They tell

We must accept this or else we

Will face a life of living hell.

Just let Them tell us what must be.

They assure us They keep the peace

By forcing us to fight wars to

Keep Them in power, They won't cease

Assuring us just They be true.

George Orwell 1984 

Is of course illegal folklore.

 New in the Neighborhood

It takes a while but I get out

Of the egg that I had called home,

So I could develop no doubt.

But now I am free and time to roam.

I notice right away that I

Breathe, making little puffs of smoke.

And then there is some fire in my

Throat that needs some practice to stoke.

I wander through the forest and

The other creatures stare at me.

They say, but I don't understand,

A dragon like myself can't be.

I am perplexed to say the least

That I am a mythical beast.

 Little Miss Giggles

Little Miss Giggles giggled so,

Red haired, freckled and body blue,

Yellowed nose and barrettes, she'd go

Giggling and make me giggle too.

She lived in Chuckle cottage where

I liked to go and visit her,

And listen to her giggling there,

Contagion I would catch for sure.

The day she lost her giggle be

So sad, and giggle back she yearned.

And also giggleless for me.

Thank goodness her giggle returned.

Little Miss Giggles, thank you for

Your giving me giggles galore.

 Scorpius

I am called Scorpius and be

Best known for being the foe of

Orion in mythology.

And thus humans have little love

For us scorpions ever since.

Human Orion boasted that

He would kill all animals, hence

The gods did send me to combat

Orion which I did with sting,

Killing him, a reminder to

Humans to beware of boasting,

Which too often humans still do.

So Orion runs scared as I

Still chase him across the night sky.

 Scariest Ghost

A scary body she could be

When she would tell me all the ways

She thought up how to murder me.

Such always left me in a daze.

So on an ocean cruise we went.

She taunted how easy she could

Just give a push and I'd be sent

Overboard and be gone for good.

One night I followed her to where

She was standing next to the rail.

And I snuck up behind there.

One push, and down down she did sail.

Scariest ghost I'd meet in life

Would no doubt be my murdered wife.
