DRESS TO IMPRESS

A woman had dress to impress
But attracted the wrong guest
Lustful men at her door
Who demanded way more
But was sprayed for being a pest

Others will adjust

Tears roll down 
Sorry, sad soul
Tracksuit's wet
A dress will do
The style's good
Others will adjust

Premium Member One Fine Summer Dress

A summer bawdy or humorous limerick Poetry Contest
Tania Kitchin


My summer dress is a wee bit too short
I'm drawing aggressive stares of all sort 
Men with their catcalls 
And their big eyeballs
I thanked my dry cleaner for the distort


A Passionate Love Affair

The Main Theme For
" Subject To The Movie"
--------------------------
The Orchestration
-------------------------- 

I once believed love would
keep us together
we'd go through whatever
our desire not to be apart

I characterized, the reason why
it was cool to say I love you
that feeling we share
the one no one would dare
to come between just
cause I love you

Everytime we kiss goodbye
I never doubt the reason why
cause your the top
you're the best
that I must confess
it's love I guess


When I lose my concentration
or get losed in conversation
I step away to ask
what do she want me to say
That passionate behavior
is the kind that'll save yah
when you loss your concentration
or lose you way.
what then to say ah

what denotes the point of our
existence
i don't know when
I can't remember how
I just know it's a special thing
we have together

Premium Member Letting Aunt C dress the Turkey

That’s the last time we let Aunt C dress the turkey they said.
We all stared at the beast, dressed in all kinds of thread.
He had on striped tights, his feathers were dyed in a gorgeous way.
Aunt C always goes way over the top, with fashion she loves to play.

Premium Member I dress the part

I'm the coolest of cats

Premium Member Let me wear the green dress

No! You will spill
something on it!

This is not a haiku!

Premium Member The dress that didn’t fit

because I don’t have today
because I didn’t have white
because I didn’t have marriage

Premium Member Pablo quick on the take

Adorable Dora went for a mani,
insisted of course on matching her dress.
How she felt magnificently dapper and regal
in her green velvet, walking high like noblesse.

Soon was it she remembered
that her closet was bare to the bone
and this was the only green
that she owned.



( Referring to Pablo Picasso's painting "Dora Maar with Green Fingernails" )

Premium Member Had I Been A Fool Dressed As A Friend To You?

Fool a very powerful word,
with four unassuming letters.
Young and dumb in school,
we said we would be best friends forever.
Then came your wedding,
I took you to find your pretty dress.
Your mom and sister were no where in sight.
As your maid of honor,
I stand tall and proud watching over you both.
Your sister came as a guest,
her husband never bothered to show up.
You asked me to keep your lies,
and I did.
My mouth was glued shut,
not a word to be spoken.
Your letter came,
as I read my heart broke into a million pieces,
my fingers were burned from the paper and words.
How could you say these things to me?
Over the many long years,
had I been a fool dressed as a friend to you?

Premium Member Pink Wedding Dress

I will wear a pink wedding gown, Louise Liss vowed
her fashion sense was as complete as she was endowed
people thought she would change her determined mind
her pink veil was gorgeous, designed by Calvin Kline.

No one had ever seen a bride as gorgeous as Louise Liss.
The audience was thrilled with her groom’s gentle kiss.
Her tiara included pearls, rhinestones, and a giant pink bead.
Pink works for Louise Liss, the congregation readily agreed.

Premium Member If the dress fits '

If the dress fits then ware it.'if the mess hits, then share it..The best advice is give
It a try, why take all the blame? Just be spry.' When next comes time to test-ify
Thats if you are bill-ary clinton? Just in
In this note, and as a bye; the bye.)

White dress

When she entered the church and they played the hymn,
She entered a world that belonged to him,
The song and the people were there to remind
Her of everything she had to leave behind.
She was wearing a beautiful white dress,
A symbol of desires she had to suppress.

Premium Member I Dress Like Movie Stars on Britt Box

matching clothes are not for me
I dress like movie stars on Britt Box TV
clothes we like, patterns and colors we love
matching neither, very British, very freeing

Premium Member sixties girly dress

Sixties girly dress
frothy scratchy petticoat
patent leather shoes

pretty lace anklets
ready for Sunday School
twirling in the rain
