Best Miser Poems

I once had everything 
too much in fact

Old miser chanced on doubt
As...

how to educate

great start made to stitch

There Once was an Old Miser from Queens

He was too Cheap to Pay for the Broken Zipper on his Jeans

He Jerry-Rigged it with Rope

Then Came off Looking Like a Dope

When His Craggy Hiney was Exposed

The miser and the model
are a couple, you might say,
yet they don't speak to one another,
she treats him like a brother,
how to add a little romance 
and excitement to their day?

He forgoes his prime obsession
and decides on a surprise
for his delectable companion
with such sadness in...

In life if you have to have dreams 
Then dreamt a dream which makes you an owner of a hill 
If dream brakes 
And the hill slips out of your hand 
You should not be sad 
As a chunk of it would be enough for...

Man heard a voice saying 
Lend me your eyes 
I will show you the sufferings
Man heard a voice saying
Lend me your ears 
I will tell you the reason 
Man heard a voice saying 
Lend me your mouth 
I will argue with you the ultimate solution
But...

According to all of the tests
But old Doctor Kaiser
Was simply a miser
Who plundered the most treasured chests...

There once was a banker from Kent
Whose life was fanatically bent
    On saving each quid
    Like no other did
And moaning with each pound he spent...

With her husband who was penurious

After quite a big uproar
His flamboyant stinginess quite curious....
