Here is one I like.
“I think that I shall never see, A billboard lovely as a tree. Indeed, unless the billboards fall, I’ll never see a tree at all.”-Ogden Nash

From the same author:
You shake and shake the ketchup bottle; none comes out, and then a lot’ll.
If you should behold a panther crouch,
Prepare to say ouch.
Better still, if called by a panther,
Don’t anther.
For the longest time I said “quid pro quo” instead of “quo pro quid” because that was the way Nash had it. Or do I still have it backwards?
AND-—
“When called by a panther,
don’t anther!”
Ogden Nash
These signs
Are not
For laughs alone
The face they save
May be your own
