L Milton Hankins Poet Light Verse

Our Pickle Party

What a fine party, we’ll swim in the brine
Let’s invite Mr. Kosher Dill and Mrs. Gherkin,
I’m sure we’ll make memories to enshrine
If Mr. Sweet wears his favorite wool firkin!
We must invite the Bread-and-Butter twins,
Mr. Crinkle Chips must surely be on our list
Refrigerator pickles with a Vlasic label wins
Prizes we shall offer, Miss Lime will insist.
For refreshments we can serve Mr. Kool-Aids
Since nobody will think of them as a pickle
If they aren’t in a jar and are home-made,
Our pickle party will be fun in the shade!

Gershon Wolf August 13, 2022 at 10:14 PM Just invite a couple of pregnant gals, and they'll be pickled tink to be there! ~ Tee-hee L Milton Hankins August 14, 2022 at 8:29 AM Tsc! Tsc! You know, to be truthful, I don't know a single pregnant woman right now. Hmm...I don't even know any married ones either.
