How Many Ties- a Poetry Mix

A Rhyme about Ties

How many ties does a man need
In fashion to be up to speed?
I really haven’t got a clue
Would you say about sixty two?

Tie Limerick

His ties number sixty two
Now here’s what I’m going to do
I’ll snip off each end
Drive him round the bend
I’d do that, now how ‘bout you?

Each tie rack I have arranged
I tell you I’m quiet deranged
But this I must say
I’ll use them for play
Or else I will be estranged

He cuts a figure so fine
This crazy husband of mine
So I’ll just shut up
Drink this bitter cup
For in a suit he’s sublime

David Fisher April 20, 2013 at 6:10 PM A very clever way to describe five dozen ties! Thank goodness we don't wear them in pairs. Eileen Manassian April 20, 2013 at 10:49 PM Yes....wouldn't that be something! Thanks for the visit! :)
