Short Bathtubs Poems

     If bathtubs grew onions
       then feet might have bunions
     that stink as well as get sore
  
     If you can't remove all the dirt
       your toes will sure hurt ~
         that your husband
         will ignore as he snores

bathtubs have them
and some fingers
but not the gardening ones

around the rosie? sure I know it
But you will never find
one in  my nose

Do I look like a bull?
Hoops is another word
describing them 

But then you think of
rim shots 
embarrassing basketball players...

Just 30 little days in which to turn around
A whole new season, new school year
The cooled breeze scented with academia,
apples and the most tenacious of roses
Spiders invading bathtubs, lazy bees
Stubbled fields, the grass now yellow
where emerald blades once flourished

Hot Tubs
Tin bathtubs were hung in backyards, it’s true
They were brought in on bath night, right on cue
Good old ma would fill the tub
Then give us a soapy scrub
Hot tubs ain’t new, had 'em in old days too.

Long-range forecasts
predict outbreaks of pretty weather girls.
In the event of short-range predictions,
some ugly guy may be substituted.
In the case of an emergency,
mice may seek the sheltering wings
of owls and hawks.
By midnight, the total destruction
of garden gnomes is anticipated.
Survivors are asked to remain
in their bathtubs
until absolutely clean....

Pure cotton ball fluffy
Most popular tissue, end of a q-tip
Fresh clean virginal snow
Bathrooms and bathtubs
Twinkles in the cosmos
White all around me

Lacy white collars
Lacy white anklets
Lacy white petticoats
Lacy white pantaloons
Lacy white old people
White all around me

Light fixture essence
Glow from a distant headlight
Porches and paper
All the same bright
Tails of deer, polka dots on a navy dress
White all around me...
