Homebody Cares

Everybody knocks on Homebody's door,
Everybody said hi I'm looking for Somebody.
Homebody told Everybody that
Somebody went shopping with her cousins
Somewhere, Anywhere and Everywhere.
Everybody left looking for Somebody.

If Busybody was a gossip queen,
Then Homebody is a match maker,
Trying to find a match for Anybody.
Anybody who's sexy and sassy
and a walking wet dream.
But Homebody was more than a pretty face
being thick and sexy.
Both of then, were single and on the market,
Only Nobody was available.

Busybody told Nobody that he should
go out with Homebody,
But she can be a little bougie.
Nobody said that he's not picky,
that he'd even go out with Anybody.

Somebody knocked on Busybodies door
looking to have more than a few words.
Meanwhile Homebody was taking a shower
and then she put on some not for company clothes.
There was knock at the door,
Homebody yelled come in thinking it was Anybody.
And Nobody showed up with flowers and chocolate.
Nobody came looking for Anybody
He looked around and didn't see Anybody.
So, Nobody asked Homebody
if she'd like dinner and a movie?
Homebody found a reason to get out the house.
And Everybody is still looking for Somebody.

Caren Krutsinger December 14, 2019 at 4:43 AM This reminds me of "whose on first" and I did not think that could ever be re-done half as well, and yet, here you are, doing it! BRAVO Robert! Robert Kinard December 14, 2019 at 6:14 AM The poem (Nobody Cares) was inspired by the skit (Who's On First) the Poem Homebody Cares is part 2 of Nobody Cares. Glad you enjoyed it.

Evelyn Judy Buehler December 13, 2019 at 8:43 PM Delightfully fun, with much humor and truth! I very much enjoyed reading this. :) Robert Kinard December 13, 2019 at 9:52 PM Homebody Cares is actually part 2 of Nobody Cares. When I wrote it a friend and poet insisted that I write a part 2. Thanks for reading.
