Hum ditty hum
Fathom my fumbling thumbs
My fat fingers were fiddling
A tune that was middling
Never a merrier man than me
the dawn is breaking
cardinal tweets wake-up song ~
humanity yawns

I ran downstairs
to play musical chairs -
how I do recall!
I kept repeating
changing seating
'til there were none at all.
A morning song
‘Tis brought along
By time spent with my pretty
So now I hum
The whole day long
A happy little ditty
Hubig's Pies are very pretty
And the lemon pie is sweet
So remember the old ditty
That you are just what you eat!
(Sung to melody of "Lemon Tree")
"Lilly-pads and Frogs"....
a little ditty I know -
Karaoke time!!

His verse was terse
‘twas a pithy pity
his purse was worse
couldn’t sell a ditty.

I once met an psychic Gypsy
Who warned me not to get tipsy
I always got drunk
But who would have thunk
I'd end up in Mrs. Shipsea*
*Mississippi?
The weather outside is crappy
Sure recall this timely old ditty
Der Bingle, methinks
Never loved it, it stinks
“Let It Snow” it ain't that witty
For me its always a great debate,
getting things done just moments short of late.
I'd say something witty
at the end of this ditty,
but like I said I procrastinate.
I need to write a happy ditty,
One that's readable and witty
I've been sitting here for ages
Scribbling rubbish on pages and pages
Muse has fainted; what a pity.
Flagship Shirley,
Her tea was always curly,
And she ran with Pedicure Pete,
Who sang a little ditty,
And wasn't very pretty,
And painted all the lips upon her feet.
You are my Snow White,
And I am your Prince Charming,
I’ve known it deep in my heart,
That no dragon nor serpent,
Nor witch’s potion,
Would ever dare to keep us apart.
there once was a child from the city
who grew up in fear.. what a pity
she cried millions of tears
and was ignored fifty years
now in a puddle she scribbles this ditty
(to be read to the tune of Papa was a rolling stone)
Papa was a rolling egg
Wherever he laid a hen chicks were made
And when he flied-
The coop you know was left undone.
You're extremely attractive
This much is true
A bouquet of flowers
Has nothing on you
Admittedly fawning
I plead guilty of
But I really can't help it
I'm so much in love
Some find it a joy taking the micky
Of those who find life is often tricky
With problems to face
That bestow heartache
To you who dares, I send you this ditty.
First day
of Fall—hey,
I love the way
I feel today
“Just a simple little ditty, not too long and not so witty, but a feel-good sweet refrain that I’m proud of all the same.” —by poet
it’s been a very long and lonely quarantine
It’s allowed me the time
to write four great operas
two great symphonies
paint three masterpieces and
actually write one fictitious six line ditty
I stayed up all night writing a ditty
One I really thought was quite witty
When the results came in
Yep, no placement, no win
My rhyme and meter were shown no pity…
For the Contest contest..
I met a lovely lady and her name was Pretty,
I wanted her badly so I had to be witty,
She now resides in my mind,
Our lives forever entwined,
Now the song in my heart is this here little ditty.

End of Ditty
Kiss the midnight sky!
I remember who you are.
Sow the seeds of sorrow,
Of a written birthmark scar.
Why are you so wistful?
You asked, it can’t be said.
Eternal rotten romance,
Running through my head.
I’m hoping my last poem’s a triolet
After an unexpected roll in the hay
Memories to keep
Through a lovely sleep,
Singing this ditty: Zippity-do-dah-day!

There once was a young man from Kansas City
Who considered himself very witty.
For him others wrote a little ditty
"He jokes with bartenders,
snaps his suspenders,
jokester no less, that’s his nitty gritty.”
