Bumblebees

Fat bumblebees work
on pink hydrangea blossom.
Pollen-stuffed britches.

Days grow shorter, blossoms fade.
Honey enough for the winter?

Knee Jerk Reaction

I once had a Doc take some stitches Apparently not without glitches Because now when I sneeze I jerk at the knees And kick people in the britches

Escape of the Leprechaun

When a leprechaun tightly I caught,
I was hoping for gold in a pot.
But that trickster escaped.
At my hands I just gaped.
His wee britches were all that I got.

Attawitches

Wiccans do ride,
Our full moon tide,
Happy Halloween,
Magic is our scene,
Potions and charms,
Despite flabby arms,
Big girl britches,
Brooms aloft, attawitches!

The Calico Box Crab Freight

I was only eight
when I caught the calico box crab freight. 
Just a small-town crab-boy in tattered britches,
I found my way to fame and riches, 
loaded in a crate.

I'D Tell You a Few, But --

Good old John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt's
Profoundly bawdy hysterical wit --
  Leaves farmers in stitches
  'Most burst their britches --
Too bad for this site his jokes are unfit

Pigging Out Part 2

He would eat puddings and pies galore

And kept swelling and swelling some more 

So when his stitches popped

That's when his britches dropped 

Rumpled and crumpled up on the floor

One Halloween Nite

One Halloween nite

While running away from some witches
I ran,  until I pooped my britches 
Then The Frankenstein creature 
With the most frightening features
Laughed until he popped his switches

Too Big For His Britches

The eagle mocked the owl 
who was tethered by a string
and ended up in bird-lime
that caught him by the wing.

Owl said to eagles
escape if you can
for you'll soon be mock
by the swift knife of man.

Women Witches Who Switches

Women Witches Who Switches

Trump started searching for women witches,
That from Republican to Democrat switches;
What he resolved,
All had dissolved;
They now will wear blue on their britches.

Wanderings

robust wanderings
bring you near
walking stick and old canteen
britches, boots, all unseen
walks forever in the woods
chocolate bars
smoky fire
pull me out
a tent at night
and in the afternoon
sweet hay smell wispers
to the moon.

A Tribute

My tribute to those Alpha sisters,
They can be very scary witches,
Born with really bossy britches,
No need to argue with such shes,
In accord with place in family,
Sister A pecks down the line,
Verse for Alphas, their place and time......

She Kept 'Em In Stitches

She was a jolly seamstress Miss Gritches

     Who was a whiz at patchin' men's britches

          And alterin' ladies skirts

                And sewin' buttons on shirts

                     'Twas said she kept her patrons in 'stitches'

Cut Down To Size

He flaunted his physical riches
That made him too big for his britches
  Until a tight zipper
  So mangled his dipper
It needed a full forty stitches.

Laughter In School

When laughter was heard in the hall,
The principle thought it was gall.
When down fell his britches,
The class burst in stitches.
The principle burst through the wall.


Refer to Twain's statement: The human race has but one really affective weapon, and that is laughter.

Too Big

I was always told 

I'm too big for my britches 

and I guess it's true 

not just one way, but in two 


one size gets me into trouble 

the other one makes me look double 

so what's a girl to do 

when she's "too big for her britches" 


                 times  two

'Smarty-pants'

    ‘smarty-pants’
       too big for his britches

    kept his audience
       in virtual stitches

    on the road from rags to riches
       ran into some unforeseen glitches

    courtesy of parents' old-fashioned switches
       'smarty-pants’ derriere throbs and twitches

The Plumber's Cheeks

Once there was a plumber named Cletus Leaks,

   Who when working 'neath sinks exposed his cheeks!

      While adjusting his britches,

         He left ladies in stitches,

            As they all giggled between furtive peeks!

Pants On the Ground

Hitch up those britches
Don't show those gitches

Stained with skid marks, no gitches
keep the crabs on your private witches

Bust the slack and expose the crack
Makes me see TP and talk some smack

Cover your assets; keep it in the backpack
Or I will use a thumb tack with a good whack!

The Pants

A marriage will be sweet romance 
When the wife's the one who wears the pants.
Free of problems, free of glitches
When it's the wife who wears the britches.
No arguments or ugly scenes
When it's the wife who wears the jeans.
Marriage is lovely, face the facts,
Only when women wear the slacks.
