Funny Poems by Subject
An alternative classification of the funny poem collection by subject which lets you to meander for birth to death, from love to hate, and from the clean to the positively obscene.
Age-related Funny Poems
Funny poems that transport us from the cradle to grave, with brief stops en route for poems about those events that punctuate life - adolescence, birthdays, retirement. There are many more poems about old age than about youth, which may be a result of ageism or simply a sign of forward thinking poets at work.
Funny Poems of Life and Death
A collection of funny poems about life, family life, health, disease, death and the afterlife. Don't miss Paul's short funny poems about life and companion series of short poems about death, or Max's often toe-curlingly funny poems about the pursuit of fame and fortune.
Funny Poems of Love and Hate
A selection of Paul and Max's funny love poems are interspersed with poems about the pet peeves which punctuate life. Look out for Max's Love Songs which represent a collision between romantic poetry and nonsense verse from which no one escapes unscathed.
Literary Parodies, Pastiches and Poems about Writing
A collection of poems, parodies and pastiches which range from the distinctly low brow (and often rude) nursery rhyme parodies to sophisticated literary parodies and funny poems about the lowly status of the author.
Witty and Wry Poems
A metaphorical attic or lumber room where we hurl all the poems which don't fit in anywhere else. It is a glorious hotchpotch of poetic styles and subjects, amongst which some real treasure lurks. Be brave and have a rummage.
Rude and Dirty Poems
If you're hunting for rude or dirty poems, you don't need any warnings about the suitability of what you may find. It may be worth warning that this is a collection of poems that is first and foremost funny, and only incidentally rude or dirty. Having said which, some of the poems are very dirty, frankly filthy or outrageously obscene. You have been thrice warned.
Seasonal Funny Poems
In essence, the funny seasonal poems comprise small collections of poetry relating to the calendar’s religious feast days and secular holidays, which intermingle humorous, romantic and occasionally erotic poems. The coverage is a little patch at present, but we're hot on Halloween Poems and Christmas Poems and distinctly cool on anything American such as Thanksgiving.
