    A Thousand Uses

    A Thousand Uses
    .
    Vaseline, vaseline, Oh, what a wonderful thing
    That special blend that makes the angels sing
    .
    Once I was told it was made from sacred bears
    And by little elfs living under my own stairs
    .
    Please be careful, because it is made by magic
    Use it with care or your end could be tragic
    .
    A thousand uses, need a candle just add a wick
    Prevents chafing, smooth it on nice and thick
    .
    Makes life better, use some when making deals
    Even works fine for greasing political wheels
    .
    Quites squeaky rocking chairs and hinges on doors
    I hear tigers even use it to polish their floors
    .
    Then again, you may use it to polish metal tools
    Strangely licking it, is not against in any rules
    .
    Land of Inbetween were they mix in their beans
    Better than salt, it will accompany any greens
    .
    Take it when your out, just set it on any bar
    But surely that will take this a little too far
    .
    If I die I'll go to heaven hoping my records clean
    Thats were the streets are paved with vaseline

    already, I like whimsical poems that are offbeat and this fits that category. I like all your examples for usage etc. Clever and original. ginga

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
