Notes About The Poem

Miss Pitty Patter

****

      Her name is Miss Pitty Patter.
      She's the concrete goose outside. 
      She's quite a fashion statement.
      as she adorn the stoop with pride

      Although she doesn't say anything,
      She greets you with a smile.
      She's quite the talk of the neighborhood.
      as she sports the latest styles.

      The other day, a flock of geese flew by.
      One dropped into say hello
      He honked and fluffed his feathers,
      "Howdy there! little lady, My name is Joe."
.
      "Honk"--"Shall we go for a walk?"
      "Honk"-- "I really like your style."
       Miss Pitty, Let's sit down and we'll talk.
       He did a little dance, and she gave him a smile.

      Miss Pitty, "You are quite a handsome looker,
      But your heart is made of stone. "
      "I believe this relationship is over,"
      as he flew off all alone.

       Miss Pitty Patter frowned.

This is very cute.... ! Debra, through this amusing tale you have also imparted a moral- one with a heart of stone is never good for a lasting relationship. Such a person will be left to himself !

Valsa, you're so sweet. I enjoyed your comment about "having a heart of stone." You're right, someone like that would never last in a relationship. Blessings~ Debra

This reminds me of the dove statue I have in my rosebed. One afternoon I looked out of the window to see a Robin sitting in front of it, looking at it like it was waiting for the doves to do something. Animals are so funny; beautiful penning.

Thank you for your comment. The same thing happened to me a few years ago. I had a Cardinal statue, and another Cardinal was constantly flying around. He became disinterested after a few days. I never saw him after that. Thank you for your comment. Blessings ~ Debra

Awww! The poor goose thought she was real. He flew away feeling rejected. This is so cute Debra. It belongs in a children's book. God Bless, JB

Judy, Thank you for your kind words. I enjoyed writing this poem. I dress Miss Pitty Patter up all the time. In July, I put her in a yellow polka-dot bikini and pink sunglasses. The neighbors always smile at that. Hugs and Blessings ~ Debra
