Though shaving with soap is very cheap The cuts can also run quite deep. Be careful round the lips. Or gout in scarlet drips. Perhaps gel’s price isn’t so steep.
Because zippers cruelly pinch the skin I use velcro for my fastening. Those hooks are much too small To puncture me at all, Twisting barbs into crooks blunts pins.
Would pumpkins smile so very wide If they knew on a porch outside An exposed gourd soon rots Or splatters parking spots? Their grins come from some defiant pride.
When the nimble aphids are leaping And squat caterpillars are creeping They’re fleeing on before The mower’s starting roar, Like field-mice at the autumn reaping.
