Came coat-sleeve buttons to peeve
I thought buttons were born but to fasten, Or if not, as added frill to fashion, But not those on coat-sleeve— They were placed there to peeve, To teach a wiping nose a sure lesson! ___________________________________ Happenings |10.06.2023| humour Poet’s note: Buttons on coat sleeves is a fashion today. But that was not the purpose why they were...

The Button Bag
Afternoons in winter; When the hours seemed to drag, Were always made more bearable With grandma's button bag. The sound is unmistakable, The rattle, ting and clunk, Of the decades of collected Baubles, buckles, coins and junk. Each button tells a story, Where and when it was acquired, Those cut off coats and dresses, Mary years before admired. The bag is...

Wanna
So You wanna push my buttons, Which one will you press next?

Know you wanna to do it; Your itch- you can’t refrain, Though pushing one mere button, Could...

We All Have Off Buttons
We all have buttons, But we all have them in different places, Almost impossible to find by looking at our faces. The best way to find them is to build on the relationship, And get them to trust you enough, To show you where they are, Or if they can be operated by remote control, Give you the password. Be aware if they...

In Florida, sex with wild animals is illegal Porcupines and alligators are not for people According to the law it is also wrong And this...

This amiable lass, a woman of class, and violet hair to boot, laid eyes on me, my naked belly, and proclaimed with exuberant fact, "Did you know you've a deep belly-button, a cavern as deep as the...
