The posings of a poet.

Nursery Crimes

One, Two

Buckle my shoe

I’d rather be barefoot

Wouldn’t you?

Three, Four

Shut the door

Wouldn’t you like

to play some more?

Five, Six

Pick up sticks

Now you’re talking

I know those tricks

Seven, Eight

Lay them straight

This is boring

I can’t relate.

Nine, Ten

A big fat hen.

That does it

I’ll not be back again.

I like all of your poetry – many dimensions (from humor to the philosophical). Looking forward to reading more when I have a chance. 🙂

I’m not original in my comments, many have said it before, but I do like your versatility as a poet. Great fun!

  If variety is the spice of life, then versatility is the grinder!
