Floppy old me
Always making socks like a bee
My slippers have melt by the Chimney
And the puppies are playing hide n seek
I ‘ve just fed on the neighbours’ lefties
So I take a nap under the cherry tree.
Ho! I can hear someone knocking bravely
Comes out to be a middleman interested in my socks-making-spree
I say Nay, come when I am free
Then I realise I do need cash for next week.
I chase the middleman up the street
And trip over a twig pretty badly.
The gentleman comes to help me
I m okay.
He purchases my socks collection for a fee
It feels a bit funny
So we are both happy and get drunk for three.
The next morning I wake up with a tease
I think,
” Whose are those socks over there?…. Oh My, Oh Me….”
The middleman is knocking again, in a hurry
“I got you some new slippers, baby
Please give me what I forgot here
And don’t tell anyone we got all floppy
For you are now a rich woman
Your business will finely matter to me!”
The End
Thanks for sharing!
