Best Lost His Shirt Poems


Premium Member Learning - a Good Investment
A lazy student known as Burt, 
To parents and teachers was curt.
        With little knowledge,
        Flunked out of college;
Played stock market and lost his shirt!

Premium Member Well Worth Waiting In Part 2 - Collaboration
Eric’s revitalised me and my home 
Over his body my fingers would roam
He’s great at fixing and gluing
Expert at banging and screwing
I’m so happy that I sparkle like chrome

All my friends are pretty jealous of me 
They ring with jobs asking ‘Is Eric free’… 
He...

Where's Your Shirt
Standing listing, leaning against the wall.
Danced lots. drank shots. Friends out having a ball.
Bud bumped bouncer, lost his shirt,
imbibed too much and chased a skirt.
Group hug. Uber call. Another good pub crawl.

Stock market pervert
Ended up loosing our shirt
In a world of hurt.

Am incompetent
Tell me what you may have meant
How much money spent

May be in big hurt
All of us have lost our shirt
Missed out on growth spirit.

Declare an edict
What will I have to predict
Which...

Cruelest Cut
There were times you called me vindictive names,
Said so many uncalled for things that hurt.  
You played so many emotional games  
And with my friends you did shamelessly flirt.
Was there ever a time I lost my shirt  ?
Despite your disdain and cruel...

Chump Change
Don't let other people play you for a chump
Change that
If you got wolves seeing you walk around, 
looking like a tasty chicken drumstick
You need to change that ... change it real quick
Chumps tend not to make it to mature adult age;
they crumble easily,
like a week...

Have You Ever
Have you ever ‘Melted in someone’s arms?’
You have heard this one said often
Have you ever ‘Drowned in a kiss’?
Have you ever felt your ‘Heart soften’?

Have you ever been struck, by a ‘thunder bolt?’
This one sounds if it would hurt, 
Do you think you ever ‘Lost...

Dirty Dick's Funeral
Some things said at funerals
are so surprising
’tis a wonder the deceased 
doesn't start rising.

“He was the most honest of men,”
one speaker did assert.
But more than one listener
to Dirty Dick had lost a shirt.

“He always told the truth,"
his minister opted to claim.
But his long-time tax adviser
knew...

Winds of Change
The winds of change blowing up her skirt
Were causing a great deal of concern,
For any change she was more than alert
And her paranoia, you could discern.

Iconic like Marilyn I think not;
Winds blowing up her skirt I must say,
More than freaked out she surely got
And to...

I Lost the Bet : Where's My Jet ?
I Lost the Bet : Where's my Jet ?


I went to Vegas made a bet
  takin' the cab: lost my Jet!  
Went  to settle up the score
What else is new? Lost some more!  
Nor did Blackjack go my way, 
I should...

Today West Ham Went Berserk 
And Bournemouth Lost Its Shirt 
No Need for A Cover 
Since Jason Was Sent Home to His Mother 

So Far, Its Four 
That the Hammies Have Scored

In the Stay Out of Relegation Race...

Premium Member Gambler's Confession
If my story be told, Lord, I’d have to confess,
I’m a rattlesnake scoundrel, no more and no less.
But I’ll bet even Jesus forgives me my vice.
Seems we both lost our shirt on a throw of the dice.
I’m a graceless, tasteless gamblin’ man, 
A working class...

  Got married

  Bought a house
