It's not very funny, but there's a poem that John Denver used to do called "The Box," by Lascelles, which I used to recite on the speech and debate team in high school. I found it at http://www.his.com/~rwells/thebox.html. I always juxtaposed it with the poem http://www.civilwarhome.com/blueandgray.htm. Of course these are not funny poems.
One of my all-time favorite poems is Nash's Kindly unhitch that star, buddy at http://www.geocities.com/vdgaines/classic_poetry/nash.html.
Jessica Tandy and Hume Cronyn did performance poetry - really good - recited love poems to each other - could bring tears to your eyes.
