Do Not Look at My Petootsie

Do not look at my petootsie she said
But she was wearing tight pants not plain or red
Multitude of colors and crazy designs too
In silver, turquoise, pink, azure, green and blue

We did our best to avoid her but it was not easy
Her costume was more decorative this time than sleazy
But it was artistic done up in a really smart fashion sense way.
I thought it was best to avoid her totally on her persnickety day.

Reminds me of “Fancy Pants,” the name me and my sis gave to a man on one of our bowling teams. Love the title and the persnickety poem. Cute!
