No Settee For Betty

A plump little girl named Betty
She ate copious amounts of spaghetti
She loved the stuff
It was never enough
She got too fat to sit on the settee

Dumpster Fire

In a dumpster at a house close to me
were the contents of a home bourgeoisie. 
In the night, it caught fire,
which did fill me with ire;
was gonna dive for a velvet settee!

Ready Betty

A gentleman came calling for Betty.
The house Madam said wait on the settee.
Betty came running down.
Tried to change the man's frown.
But she had been so busy already.

This is for the Bawdy limy contest, though not very bawdy.

Not So Remote

a sestet

Looking for that place beyond his memory, 
he scans time and space within the room's debris 
waiving the embrace requiring energy.
Twisting in the settee, he finds it in his lap 
clicking uselessly  - alas! it has no zap 
Lacking battery!  how will he take his nap?

Solitude - Silence Is Golden

Susannah sits savoring the silence snuggled sleepily on the settee enjoying espresso and eating éclairs - she needed some space and solitude, twins, the ‘terrible twos’ are so taxing! Her husband’s taken Hannah and Holly to a party at Pirate Pete’s play park. 04/01/21

Silver Coin

A silver coin,
In the glitter of light,
Falls to the ground,
a tinkle of sound,
Spins round and round, 
And races to a hiding
under the settee!
Determined not be found,
Not to be value bound,
But to be ground,
back Into its own,
To be pure and precious free,
As before
Not to be enslaved
By human greed!

Us

The cat, sat on the settee, glaring at the dog and the dog lying on the mat, half opened his eyes and glared back, at the cat

Then they both stared at me, sitting in a chair, combing my fair hair, without a care, so I did the same and gave them a stare 

We are like that, myself, the dog and the cat, we stare at each other and all that

Funny Story Except It Is True

I am standing around the house 
I hear a loud boom with floor vibrations
I ask if everyone is ok because 
I thought someone fell flat on their settee
Everyone says we're ok what was that??
After much investigation
We found that my tire had exploded into shreds

I am considering suing the company
Never used spare tire, only fourteen years old
Should not have exploded like that!!

Pale Mood

Sadly she sits on her brand new couch with ease Sitting elegantly in her midday dress Her wine sits on a table, it seems a tease She looks sad just like someone that could care less Her white cat lies at the foot of her settee She rubs the belly of the lovely kitty The woman sighs with an emphatic exhale Her grief ignited by her mood that is pale Russell Sivey

Robust Chestnut Gloss Sheen

Golden water glittering through
delicate weeping willow leaves
Swans swimming on  the lake
Grand  house on top of the hill
neatly framed with many trees
Shingled roof  peaked gables
Large arched windowed eyes
Carpeted  flowers staircases
Marble floor,  chequered hall
Dining room living room den
Settee Louis XVI parlor chair
Deep  yellow blue pink letter
Clatter of  six sets  of  hoofs

Once Love So Real, Now Mere Echo

Sullen gray-and-black leaden fingers unclosing against vast sky, cause the outside world seems to run away in grim silence. Once love so real, now mere echo in the weak moonlight rays as fragrant gold flaming honeysuckle vines bound into a braid around too narrow garden bower. I sit on a settee, in the pavilion, my head down with cherishing sadness.

Ideas To Ponder

Hitch up those gitches and ambulate across the way to a brother's abode and visit awhile on the settee. Don't beat the mule for stubbornness he's just a creature of the earth.

Did you burn a yule log to purify your home from grudges!

Jan. 6th Kings day....suppose to be the day the wise men met the new born Jesus. 12 days post birth.

you are a hoot....but I've got to scoot on down to the sanctuary for soul revival....need a little pep in my boots

Gospel Truth

This is a Rondine in pentameter

Never say never my darling Betty.
I think past sweet words have been a good  start
and know they’re ingress to a woman’s heart
Would you like to rest on this soft settee,
there is no danger its firm and steady.
Gospel truth, in pantsuit you look so smart.
Never say never.
I saw you, dear, at Tavern Gramercy.
In Effie Silk Dress you were piece of art,
I could have torn your lucky date apart.
The Maitre d' had your table ready
Never say never.
