Short Snit Poems

casper's in a snit
     seems he wants to be scary....
           not some friendly ghost...

I found someone a very nice gift
I thought that it would give her a lift,
but when I presented it
she slammed the door in a snit...
me naked with a bow wasn't too swift!...

I'm short and most costumes don't fit
Halloween found me in a snit
     But I have my answer now
     I just comb my long hair down
Add glasses and I'm Cousin It



Written for the Halloween Costume contest...

How wise can a crow be? Asked the owl in a snit.
He did not like crows getting smart, did not like it a bit.
Well, he has the wizard hat, and he shows signs of wit.
The owl flew off angry, annoyed with this know-it-all chit....

Whom ever taught my cat to whine could not have been a friend of mine.
She's learned to vocalize a bit and now acts like a spoiled snit.
It's so annoying to say the least. She knows I'll cave to get some peace.
I let her out for a window of time and ask  if she wants some cheese
with that whine....

Psychologic patterns putter past
teary temper tantrum
abruptly altering an afternoons'
magical moment
fostering feathered friends.

You yawn
in indignant imitation
of outrage only
how humorously
ennui envelops
your yelling
tantrum to trek toward
some stark stumbling
angst anchored
by bloated bile.

When will we
clamly converse, crocodile?...

I am on a writing wonder roll today
I credit the sun with a hip hip hooray!
Trixie is on spring break far far away
We are glad for she deserves an hour and a day.

Her cousin Adeline came to help me a bit.
But I argued with her first idea, and she had a fit.
She marched off mad, in a ridiculous childish snit.
How much more persnickety can a sub-muse get?...

Joseph's pop gave him a multi-colored coat that put his brothers in a snit!

   They became so outraged that the eldest bro suggested tossing him in a pit!

      Praise the Lord!  He was rescued, ended up in Egypt and had the last laugh!

         Joe found favor in Pharaoh's eyes and was promoted to be his Chief of Staff!

For the Life without U and Me contest.

Willy walks across the wild orchids
Sporting a licking from nanny

Kick, kick, kick my ball
Sponsoring a bad day for all

Soaking in the whys
Hopping angry, 

"Today, I will go to Canada
Nanny's gonna kiss this boy!"

Wild thing in a slow snit
Lips big and tripping his body,

Down cast sight 
Will last all night!


I think I did it with no "u-m-e"?...

bear felt indebted to his bee friends in a way
so he decided to take them a bouquet one day
he held it under their hive, so they could enjoy it
“Stop being friends with that bear!” the foreman said in a snit.

“But he’s giving us flowers,” the worker bees said.
The bear continue holding the petals, high up from his head.
The foreman tried to shoo the large grizzly away.
But he wanted some honey, so he continued to stay....

With aging comes a malady
Which worsens bit by bit.
At first it's just annoying
And can find you in a snit.

It isn't physical and won't
Affect your smarts or wit,
But rather it attacks your brain
And causes thoughts to flit.

You think of something you must do
But then you must admit
The plan you just had in your mind
Has somehow seemed to split.

If this description sounds to you
Like something that might fit,
You're suffering from CRS -
That's Can't Remember.....Spit!...

While I ponder, here I sit
Some say I am just a twit
All their comments are just ____ 
Hurt? I’ll never show it.

Look and find I have some wit
I type and wear a baseball mitt
Even though it does not fit
My poetry won’t show it.

Write me, please, I will read it.
Review me now as you see fit
My candle’s for you, that is kept lit,
Take your time and read it.

Bad responses? I will permit.
Good responses? A better fit!
Come on now, don’t be a snit
You will be better for it....

Blow down the snozzle
this windy wild world
is nowt but a hornswoggle.

Giddy are the blue birds
in head and heart,
blithered are the bush-beating
snit-shifters.

A good day to die and live again,
a day for tripping a bright bombastic.
A yet better day
for some nonsensical boggle
that wags words in a
beery muddle.

Fluffy are the puffy footloose
that skip well over a plushy clover,
great the laughter of children
that dance in the minding eye
of an everlasting God today....
