Itch, Twitch, Glitch, Witch

Itch, Twitch, Glitch, Witch

In the middle of my back
 I have an annoying itch;
It wakes me up at midnight
 With a relentless twitch;
A glitch -my arms are just too short
 To reach this little itch;
Maybe in a book of spells, 
 A remedy by a witch,
That can end the agony
 Of my little itch.

Hi Janice, Glad this poem made you smile. Does the itch show up when you are preaching? Besides midnight mine shows up when I am doing a program. TORTURE! Yes!!!

Oh, I don't envy you that itch. I hate when I do itch in the middle of my back.. Back scratchers are perfect for those sneaky sly buggers. :) like the poem , Sam.

Hi Eve, I think everyone has one of those little, unreachable "itches!" Glad this brought you a smile!
