Corn Pop

Feeling corny
By the sea
Stretched out baby
Please look at me

I got on my shades
Do you think I’m hot
This yellow tan baby
It ain’t store bought

Rub in that butter
Slather me up
If you rub deeply
I’m bound to pop

Sun kissed towels
Baby you and me
Both feeling corny
down by the sea.

Eileen Manassian Date: 7/17/2025 2:32:00 AM Is that corny or some other word that rhymes with it? ;) Mmmmmm... hope he doesn't pop too soon. Login to Reply Richard Lamoureux Date: 7/17/2025 6:42:00 AM Ha, ha, when one is corny that can be a possibility.

Gershon Wolf Date: 7/16/2025 1:07:00 PM You and I must be reading the same 'corny jokes for dads and grandads' book, Richard. My kids tell me my jokes are so old and corny that I fell off my dinosaur last time I told them. That's gratitude for you, eh? lol.

Andrea Dietrich Date: 7/16/2025 12:43:00 PM so cute. It reminds me of a meme I saw on FB with two corn on the cobs sitting in sunshine and one has turned into popcorn! Login to Reply Richard Lamoureux Date: 7/17/2025 6:44:00 AM It sounds like the picture Vie posted. Thanks for your visit Andrea.
