Such a Clumsy Critter

While watching my babysitter Playing with glitter, I fell into the kitty litter! -- I am such a clumsy critter. My brother will twitter Our babysitter is covered in glitter She is such a kidder, But, I fell into the kitty litter! I am such a clumsy critter. My kitty has five kitties in her litter They were watching my babysitter Playing with glitter, When I fell into the kitty litter! I am such a clumsy critter. My mommy is a good knitter, My brother really likes to twitter, My kitten has five kitties in her litter, Everyone was watching my babysitter Playing with glitter, When I fell into the kitty litter! I am such a clumsy critter. Written April 14, 2022

This is hilarious Milt's, it's tongue twisting catchy and has you wanting more, you could just see it all reeling off in front of your eyes as you read it, ha, ha, ha . . . ; )

Hi Milton, most men are clumsy but we love you all as you are. Great rhyme, rhythm and a neat beat to it! Hugs and blessings Jennifer.

Thanks, Jennifer. But, I've known a few clumsy women in my time, too.

WoW! Milt I enjoyed this from the start to finish. It was a good story you told in the monorhyme form. Everything moved so fast it was almost like a tongue twister as well. Good, content, and imagery. That’s what I got from it, well done. Have a great day. Happy Easter to you and your loved ones;-)Alexis
