Premium Member A Marine Called Gunny

There was this tough old Marine called Gunny.

   Cussin' spewed from him like gurglin' honey.

      He ran a very taut ship,

         And nobody gave him lip,

            'Cept his spouse who addressed him as 'Sonny'!

Premium Member Pumpkin Patch Gunny Sack

the creature was sitting quietly in the pumpkin patch
Her head was made of gunny sacks, we called her Match
Because all of her seams were lined up evenly.
She did not speak much, but she giggled with glee.

The giggling was excessive, it bothered Tony for a while.
She looks diabolical, look at her devilish smile.
I did not see it, but liked the way she exuded joy.
Match went home with me and became my favorite toy.
