This is something very diff'rent
Make up couplets, be irreverent
There's just one rule to spoil your leisure
Puns must honor friends with feathers

'Ere I depart, I put my capon
Untie those strings from mother's apron
Fly from the nest, please cease your squaking
It is my time, says Steven Hawking

The crow fresh corn did want to shuck
Til a tossed shoe he had to duck.

(Ok, this is hard)

A feathered rhyme? I do not know.
If I think of one, I'll surely crow.

To learn to work with flightless birds,
I'll use the demonstrator.
It will suffice to teach for now,
'til I can use the emu later.

The arsonist yelled
(He'd burned his toe)
"Gol darn, I should not
Flame n go!"

No rhyme yet, I'm really slow
I feel like a true dodo.

The eagle's head, much to her egret.
is without any feathers thereon.
But far more majestic is this bird of prey,
than a human head with no heron.

The dirty old bird with a nasty pecker
Ravaged all within reach, the dirty sexer
Twill possibly ne'er be knowed
What set Rooster upon the cock road.

My gal went to the South Pole,
her job over love did win.
Now our only contact is through letters,
Every morning I pen Gwynn.

Crows cacaw and roosters crow -

But could someone please explain to me
why wolves and canines 'owl?

There once was a shrink of great repute
That lived in Seattle, this none can refute
His suit one day was sullied enroute to a train
And thus he instantly became a Whooping Crane

As members of Hatrack we're all Jatraqueros
And occaisionally pay tribute to personal heroes
While some may quote the Immortal Bard'n all
I prefer the modern day greats like Card'n all

When there are fleas
Osprey my home
Though still within
Cat's fur they roam.

"The man in black is likely a mugger,"
I thought as he waved his Louisville slugger.
It was more than enough to set my veins throbbin',
the thought of the victims of this bat man's robbin'.

I must've committed some Cardinal sin
Ostrich out my hand to call . . . a pigeon
Robin' Hood I am not, so spare yer arrows
There’s no need to quail – my aim is vireos
If you call me a warbler, I’ll call you a lyre
(Surely one good tern deserves another!)
If once you but open your falcony eyes
Then would you know, I'm the bard o'Paradise

Jay would peck her
And then crow all about it
Swift then, he’d goose her and duck in his bower
She -- a loon and a cuckoo – would fall for his bullsh*t

She’d swallow it whole, then slowly get it
What saplovers everywhere learn in an hour
You can never buy, but must always wrentit

bump.

Aww, c'mon people. This isn't that bad, is it?

This is the slowest pun thread EVER!

Perhaps we should rhea valuate.

Maybe if we eliminate the rhyming requirement. It seems to hang like an albatross over everyone's neck.

Would straight punning be more pheasant?

Dirty Punwit, shame on you
With your naughty lyrics and puns of blue
You stole my joke, what can I do
For I was going to use Cock-a-too.

Punwit and Dan seem obsessed a lot.
If they make cock jokes again,
we should let the pair rot.

Lend your ears to this heartwarming story
that's really quite cute and not at all gory
of a young bird with a sizable bill
who excelled not at school but worked with a will

Young birds take heart from this bright tale
Of avian persistance beyond most pale
Apply for a grant as this fella can
And as he said, "With a Pell, I can"

Semi-Famous Twirps

When Leno found he was third in pay
Of late night comics, what can I say
He cried all night and cried all day
If truth be told, he was one blue-Jay.

When Larry found his records were broke
His carreer forgotten, and twas no joke
He cried all night, and cried "Absurd!"
If truth be told, he was one blue-Byrd

When Mr. Leach, a famous Guest
Lounged in the sun, by pool, shirtlesst
He burned quite bright and have you guessed
If truth be told, he's Robin-Red-Breast

I once had a donkey named Kooky
who always took time out for nooky
While chasing some ass broke his leg in a furrow
Which ended the life of my bird-brained kooky burro

A Celtics fan named Red was heard
To actually be mocking Bird!
When we found out we quickly said
Move down to Rhode Island, Red!
