The Dumbness Of Grace

“Grace is the Princess of Dumb,”
Pig ponders, as he drinks his rum,
He says “it is strange,
The small size of her brain,”
Yet he can’t help but find her a chum.

If there is a Dumbland, she’s in it,
A Nobrain Dumb Prize, she’d win it.
When told “tent in pants”
After given the chance,
To get the joke took her ten minutes.

She’s amusing when covered in paint,
Her humour is really quite quaint.
But give her some spelling,
And she’ll spell it “sfelingk”-
She’s a few things, but smart’s one she ain’t.

Adrian, Luin & Kate

There once was a mutant called Lady,
Her antics appeared to be shady
When blowing up Luin
(And half my house too’n)
Said my parents, “That THING is no lady!”

There once was a pirate called Kate
Her liver began to dissipate
When liqueur she’d been in
And the rum, and the gin
Since the age of four, she’d thought it was great.

An elf called Luin there once was,
If you meet her, you’ll notice she bounces
Off the ceiling, the floor
The walls, AND the door
My home’s half the house that it once was…
