Hawaiian Lay

I can’t remember the year but man created a Colored toilet paper, blue, yellow, red and green The young inventor I was and short on cash I took and separated each square on every color I had thread and a needle and of course this was all free I took each square and crinkled it from corner to corner Alternating the colors then thread it through the middle When I was done it looked like a Hawaiian Lay I went through the neighborhood selling them for .50 cents The only draw back to my invention was my mother She asked my three brothers where the toilet paper went When she got to me I gave her the cash I did this for our family helping you to pay the bills Thank you Bobby now we can buy some more toilet paper As you can see this plan did not work out for me All that work I did was now being flushed down the toilet

I do not remember toilet paper in any colors but these, so loved the photograph and of course the poem is HILARIOUS and feels TRUE.

Hi Bobby, Yes but the love for your mom was there as you wanted to help her and you also acted as an entrepreneur - no matter how and what each sheet was used for thereafter! I had an early morning laugh - really enjoyed your poem Bobby. I think we would all love another 3 word poem - it was lots of fun. Poetry hugs, Jennifer
