A gardener measures out her soil
And counts the treasures yet to come
With just a bit of honest toil.

Whose life was fanatically bent
    On saving each quid
    Like no other did
And moaning with each pound he spent

Enough to at least scarf one big-mac!

Would make me go berserk!

At least he isn't like a miser!

Immersed in the throes of a

Limerick: Once a measly Miser in Mumbai

Once a measly Miser in Mumbai
Liked watching dancing girls on the sly
He went to Bolly-Wood
Though he felt jolly good
His loot sucked by Bombay Ducks well nigh.

The Old Miser From Queens

There Once was an Old Miser from Queens

He was too Cheap to Pay for the Broken Zipper on his Jeans

He Jerry-Rigged it with Rope

Then Came off Looking Like a Dope

When His Craggy Hiney was Exposed 

as They Fell to His Knees!

Limerick : Once a Miser lost hoard of halfpence

Once a Miser lost hoard of halfpence
Looked high and low and over the fence
When at last he found it
It wasn’t worth his spit
Ha’penny tipper got his comeuppance

Barbaloot Suits

here come the barbaloots
the barbaloots
in their barbaloot suits
i see them coming everyday
everyday
rolling in the hay
but then comes along a miser
a miser
never the wiser
then they all go away
away
hopefully to return some sunny day

Premium Member All Hail Our Kyser

When speaking of words 
     Jeff Kyser's no miser
   More like a soaring bird
     perched atop a surging geyser

   His wit unrivaled, nonpareil
     sophisticated and slick
   Fear not a Caesar-like burial
     ~ Our Kyser's too quick

Premium Member Literary Giant

His Victorian times were in need of reform. 
He wrote of orphans out in a storm
With no fleece coats to keep them warm,
And a miserable miser counting his gold.
Charles Dickens' topics were true and bold.

The Niggard

English Three Verse Haiku Poem (c)

So much of all things
Had he, of gold, silver, pearls.
He never gave a
Thing away…the poor
From him got naught… He horded 
All he ever got.

He lived a miser... 
Death saw all his wealth pass to
Another niggard.

Imagine There No Heaven

Thsi world is an encampment on a thousand valleys ,
Each leading to God's great mansion,
He is evil,
A miser and insane,
He rules his entire creation with a sick sense of homour,
During the sixties someone set up this world as an hope against him,
The overlord,
That's why they call this world imagine there's no heaven,

Premium Member A Born Miser

Man heard a voice saying 
Lend me your eyes 
I will show you the sufferings
Man heard a voice saying
Lend me your ears 
I will tell you the reason 
Man heard a voice saying 
Lend me your mouth 
I will argue with you the ultimate solution
But man never cares 
He is a born miser 
Not to lend anything 
Except for his own sake 
And benefits

Premium Member Green Cuisine

Lurking in fuzzy leftovers is seen
A quivering, crawling hairball of green
A florescent prune
Or cheese from the moon
Gurgles gastric, plastic alien spleen

The miser squire requires gluts of caffeine
To dissect this science project's gangrene
Harpoon on a spoon
Zoom to the saloon
Lunch ladies' supreme mystery cuisine.

A Quatret To My Wife

A Quatret To My Wife

When hell has frozen over,
And Hades’s dogs sleep quiet,
Love’s plant the blessed clover,
Will bloom a mossy riot

Love’s urgent thrust’s a miser,
Brings lovers’ secret moan,
But woman’s touch, a riser,
Tis butter on a scone

And with this love I worship,
The path on which we walk,
Our voyage is such a fair ship,
Does vex all others’ talk
