Down intelligence trickles
Now in a pickle.

When I sat on a thistle
The pricks went in 
I started to scream
They lied, they said it would tickle...

Your vehicle's surely in a pickle
Because you, its owner, are so fickle
  You claim depreciation
  Never appreciation
You don't think your car's worth a plugged nickel...

A drug smuggling dribbler is in a pickle
Commie Lebron is acting quite fickle
she should rot in a gulag
with this self-oppressed snob
until they choke on the hammer and sickle...

Trickle of Hammer and Cycle

Down theory there has been a trickle,
And are afraid of hammer and sickle;
Trump frown,
World renown,
And again as usual we are in a pickle.

Tickle the Trickle

They barely did touch or try to tickle
Exotic effect that they all call trickle'
The final result,
Came to a halt;
Now the Republicans are in a pickle.

When pets start acting out of character
Different to their normal routine as their caregiver
Sends out a signal
You're in a pickle
A visit to the vet is definitely in the picture...

A man found himself in a pickle
When his girlfriend found he was fickle
He said "won't you stay"
She said "there's no way"
As she took his head off with a sickle.

Valiantly Driving Vehicle

Once was valiantly driving my vehicle
Ran into a problem ending up in a pickle;
Lane shift or change;
Mentality derange;
Have been happier riding my bicycle.

Trump In A Pickle

Someone ran over Trump's bicycle
Chose another he was in a pickle
And with women wherever he went
Had failed to obtain their consent
All he did was their toes tickle.

There was a young man in a pickle
His girlfriend Louise was quite fickle
When the test came out blue
She told him it's not you
With others I played slap and tickle

Russian flag is a hammer and sickle
Now their president is in a pickle
Down the stairs, a messy heap
Making threats he cannot keep
Vladimir Putin's not worth a nickel.

Miss Fickle
She is always in a pickle
She was born two months early
They expected a boy, but she turned out to be a girlie...


*my folks only found out 
about me when my mom was 6 months 
pregnant and I arrived at 7 months lol*...

The new residents at the Manor
Were in a pickle, with a dilemma
Their neighbors’ were rather posh
With exclamations like 'Golly gosh'

Keeping up appearances in other homes
Is rather hard when your name is Jones.

I gave my love a sour pickle
His eyeballs then started to trickle
Puckered up was his mouth
And his tongue had gone south
To see him so gave me a tickle!

Some think of geometry as art,
but I don't include Renes Descartes.
A philosopher of calibra, 
he combined geometry with algebra.
When in a pickle or a fix he 
was not only just whistling Dixie. 
He was writing down equations,
perfect for geometric occasions....

I`m late, so late and
Can no longer wait !
I`m in grave trouble and
soon will burst my bubble 
My efforts must redouble !
I`m truly in a pickle.
 

I`m truly in big ****
To this I must admit 
Am truly a star twit !
And forthwith must commit 
To stop with all this wit....

“In a rundown, the runner is in a pickle that could become a rhubarb.” ~ by poet

Rundown.
He's trapped between
bases being pursued
by the fielders who glibly smile
because they know they have the advantage,
to perhaps overtake and tag
the beleaguered runner,
to foil the run.
Rundown.

Help me Mum I'm stuck up this tree,

I thought it was Bamboo I just couldn't see,

It's getting quite windy, so I gripping much tighter,

And I don't want to worry you but my grips getting slighter,

Come and get me Mum and I'll promise I will be a good little Panda,

Well I will be after I've eaten my tea....

Sue
soulful
spirited
a go-getter
raising her children the best that she can

Mae
angry
often down
tired a lot
her child finds his own food at young age

Lynn
watcher
tries to help
cannot take sides
as their mother she is in a pickle

Bill
often
intervenes
this is okay
because Sue and Mae are both Daddy’s girls...

I'm in a preposterous pickle
Caught up in a pitiful plight,
Hands raised in a sign of surrender
Enmeshed in a garment too tight!

I'm bleating a plea for assistance
But nobody answers my call,
As changing room cubicles whisper
'She tried on a dress far too small!'

At my friend’s house over dinner
I emptied a pickle jar
My fickle buds relished infinitum
The tickle of sweet and sour
Didn’t suspect had a base of rum.

Soon the full moon appeared sickle
From forehead sweat dripped in trickle
It was fruitless to stickle
For beyond doubt I was pickled
I found prickly me in a pickle.

Oh, my word I’m in a pickle on this day,
My amazing muse has gone astray.
She just up and left on this Wednesday,
What I do my thoughts are in disarray.
Shall I make a missing report today?
I feel so lost and it’s just Thursday!
Maybe I’ll file the report on Friday.

I once was in a pickle between 1st and 2nd base
I wasn't in a jar but I saw the pitchers face
It was a sour type of game and quite dill

I ran to 2nd to persevere my place
With a sent if vinegar and brine dripping on my face
The umpire yelled with a loud voice

Your Safe!!!
