Short Auntie Poems

Slick little Billy Willy
Smirked at Silly Hilly
Thinking they’d have fun
When the school days done
Playing house at Auntie Milly’s...

Beneath this stone lies Uncle Fred
Whose snoring woke up all the dead
Some ghosts arose
To pinch his nose
According to what Auntie said...

Coconut shy at Reece Fair...
Auntie Margaret is sure she'll win this time.


A shy goldfish travels home
in ornate container.

Auntie Arista Adderlisting
Ate apples appreciatively
Attired in an aba apron
Always asking apprecisively
Are apricots aphrodisiacs
As Auntie abhorred amphimixis...

I so love my investigative angle
Peoples lives I so love to untangle
I thank my Auntie for this
Taggart in Scotland was bliss
Watching the Detectives, was my handle...

My elderly auntie named Dot
her memory’s going to pot
For she served me raw food
and was totally nude
A dinner I’ve never forgot

Fairy 

My auntie Mary saw a fairy
The fairy was quite contrary 
Poor Mary listened as the fairy moaned 
Mary had enough and the fairy shut up 
Auntie Mary legged it home away from the moan...

My beer-swilling auntie called Mabel
Could drink most blokes under the table
She sups pint after pint
Almost every night
No wonder her legs are unstable!

My auntie acted on the stage
Her performance was in a cage
She dressed as a stripper
Then let men folk whip her
Her antics sure caused an outrage!

I answer to all names.
Lee, Charming, Hey You, Auntie Squeak Cake
I am not particular now
having finally gotten over the identical twin thing
where I did not have a name for the first eighteen years of my life...

Owl in a box pops in and out and nods his head
Zebra steed rolls his eyes in disapproval, his cheeks all red.
Why did you wake owl up? Who threw him out of bed?
He usually sleeps all day, his nocturnal auntie said....

Then, there was Jacob from Ypsilanti
Who lived in an old ramshackle shanty 
He saved all his money
For his chosen honey
Wound up marrying my old-maid auntie.

Her name was Strawberry Jam and her talent was easy.
She sneaked into kitchens at night to taste and to fix.
Tonight she is in the home of her Great Auntie Breezie.
She tastes her jam and declares it’s a delicious mix!...

There once was a grandma who did not have

text acronym grasp, or anything thereof.

“Auntie just died”, was she proud,

she texted all, “l o l!”

She thought that it meant ”lots of love”.

My auntie declared she went dogging
I wondered if I should start blogging
But I’ll tell you the truth
She’s walking her puppy Ruth
Not eyeing lovers when she’s jogging!

In memory of Joan

uncle sammy loaned 
himself some money 
to give to auntie nati's 
newest honey 
so uncle jerry  
would do the very same 
with mister rus to blame
for blowing pipes
but no one gripes
for honey a proxy
makes us all seem foxy...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There once was an auntie so chic,
Her style was the talk of the clique,
          She’d strut down the street,
          In heels oh-so-sweet,
Aunt Betty’s fashion sense was unique!

Antiques in the attic,
amazing oil paintings
are coated with thick dust.
Albums of photographs,
await my teary eyes. 
Auntie has passed away
and I must clear her house.

“Look at that!” Auntie Lou said “They are helping him out of the tree.”
The whole family rushed to look. It was a tree they all knew not to climb.
The cousins began disappearing one by one into the crook of it.
“Or maybe not,” Grandpa said, laughing....

the jazz-playing giraffe is on the sax and bob is on the fiddle
Let’s do some dancing down the hill and meet in the middle
I loved what I was hearing from my auntie Doris, Diddle Biddle.
Ended up staying out all late with a friend who tells a great riddle....

Auntie, Loud, Daughter, Cool
Sister of Neketa
Lover of family, Sean, and writing
Who feels happy, loved, and stress
Who fears spiders, snakes, and failure
Who would like to see the Bahamas, London, and Jamaica

An earth woman at heart, she reposed in the sycamore tree
Enjoying the undeniable smell of freshly mowed grass,
And the unmistakable aroma of Auntie Mazie’s apple pie
This is my happy place, she thought, not yet knowing
That some days she would relive this moment over and over...

Today is my Birthday
 I am feeling very special!

I sit on the steps
Until he turns up at the gate

There he comes the postman with my present!
Now its time to tear it open
To see what's inside? 
From my dear auntie Lily

Back inside Mum has the cake ready
Waiting on me 

Happy Birthday  to my little Dianna!...

Ceiling décor is something most do not think about
But my auntie created one that makes us all shout
It looks like a teenage girl fell through the roof.
I am including a photo, so you doubters can have proof.
So if you still doubt we have this fall through the floor decor
I dare you to come over here and knock on our front door...

My Auntie went into a shop
Behind the counter she saw a sign
'ENGLISH IS SPOKEN HERE'

You often see these signs when you are on holiday abroad
Why am I writing this poem?

My Auntie doesn’t live abroad
She certainly doesn’t live on the moon
The sad state of affairs
She lives…. 
IN ENGLAND!!!
