I don't know which one to pick as my favorite. Toilet is soso funny. Haiku is great. Wish I knew someone to share it with. The Moose sign is outrageous. I can see it would make sense but is it real. I'll have to google it. Great collection.
Thanks for the much-needed laughs this morning. That 'Hike who?' is definitely going into my permanent collection of dad jokes! I also loved the line about poetry in translation being like taking a shower in a raincoat—that is such a perfect, frustrating image. It’s a great way to celebrate National Poetry Month without it getting too stuffy. Hope you have a great day of 'enlightened' reading!
Not being Canadian I don’t get the moose one Or hike Might need to ask doctor (Google) Or it just might be a tad early for my brain to start firing lol
Dear Debra, I am not a huge fan of poetry...BUT I love Leonard Cohen! Not sure if you have seen any documentaries on him, but there is one in particular I think you will really like (if you haven't seen it). Although I do appreciate some poetry, I just can't say that I like enough to consider myself a fan. Thank you so much for this post and the smiles!
@ Linda's Relaxing Lair -- Yes, I adore Leonard Cohen's poetry and music and have been a huge fan since I was a teenager in the 1970s. And I know he is Montreal's Favourite Son! Thanks for referencing that documentary -- it is a wonderful one!
Debra, he sure is. He is well loved here. There is a lovely mural downtown with his portrait. It is beautiful. I am so glad you liked the documentary, dear friend.

...Need Something To Celebrate? Celebrate each day that you can get out of bed!!!
So many groaners that had me chuckling.
"Hike who?"
I died.
Brilliant. Love the Rumi/cat one!
Hilarious dear Drbra
When I wake up,I don’t know if I will be alive till the night,isn’t that reason enough to celebrate each day 🤗🙏
I love the Calvin and Hobbes one. And what a stupid question to Leonard Cohen.
Celebrate each day that we are alive.
Finally an explanation of why cats sleep much of the time.
Thanks for the laughs this morning:)
These are great. I hadn't seen that Calvin and Hobbs cartoon either. :)
OMG
Poetry in translation IS like taking a shower with a raincoat!
Love Calvin and Hobbes!

Thank you! You always have the best themed memes.
I wish I knew what rhymes with vulture because that's my favorite.

Love the Leonard Cohen story. Excellent.
The Librarian and def Dead Poets Society!
The final pome! So good.
I laughed out loud at T. Eliot! That and the Invincible Moose... But, really, they were all good!

Remember all those poems we had to memorize in school?
@ Jackie McGuinness -- I STILL remember some of them!
I will continue to read poetry. I will continue to laugh in my head while reading these jokes. They are sublime!

Good ones!
Took me a minute, but I got Hike who. Always love Calvin and Hobbes.
Many interesting quotes. Thank you for sharing... and I agree with Tom in his first comment.
Greetings by Heidrun
Yes, poetry in translation: how does that work?
Oh GROAN! 😂😂😂
Great words... I know Leonard Cohen as a good singer with meaning full words.
Thanks for sharing, and happy weekend Debra 😘🎉
I didn't notice about T.S. Eliot's name. You get to learn something new every day.
Have a lovely day.
I didn't notice Eliot, either. Mixing memory and desire on a warm day.
