DITTIES & HAIKU
Shoe Shopping Blues
28 Nov 2013
Help me somebody! My feet's too big!
I went shopping for some shoes and my feet's too big!
Korean feet are small; their little toes are neat
I tried on loads of shoes but they all were too petite
So where's a girl to shop when her feet's too big?
That sublime moment
The headache lifts, the heart sings
Hope seems possible
Eating cake and drinking coffee
At the oddly named "Manoffin"
Does its motto tell you something?
"How are you feeling?
Answer: "Muffin"
Supermarket lunch
Tabasco, lemon, oysters
Three slurps and they're gone
Poetry Pose

This is my poetic pose
Feet up on sofa with sunny toes
I will adopt a different pose
Should I choose to write some prose
Autumn Bling

Autumn, in her final fling
Her role as artist's model spurns
And shedding off her raiment gold
With painter's brush turns all to bling
