Stripey Socks

Stripey Socks

 

 

 

 

 

 

Stripey socks, Stripey socks
go buy yourself a pair
Soft, warm and Stripey
they're really fun to wear

 

 

They'll let you do all sorts of things

that are said to be taboo
Like stuff your mouth with chocolate
and not stop at one or two

 

 

While indulging you may veg out
why not... have yourself a nap
Say yes to all restrictions
and refuse all kinds of crap

 

 

Ignore the danger warning signs
do run instead of walk
And if you think its rude to stare
well go ahead and gawk

 

 

Give yourself the bigger piece
even steven's not the rule
And never ever hold it in
just pee inside their pool

 

 

Laugh out loud at speedos
and compliment toupees
Tell'em it looks spiffy
worn casually sideways... 

 

 

Tweak a perfect stranger's nose
to stop the whistling noise
Or hand them a lace hanky
to clean it out with poise

 

 

   Race people using ATM's
and try to finish first
Then yell out, "Ha I beat you !"
when your money is dispersed 

 

 

So when you wear your Stripey socks
get ready to explain
It's not that I am cwazy

...just comfortably insane

    I know a straight-laced advertising executive woman ... when she gets home she sits behind her drum set, kicks rock and jazz rifts, one red sock, one purple sock with pink ovals does she wear ... I had a big bulldog who liked to wear a big stripey sock on his head ... I loved him very much ... I believe it was the stripey sock I wore at my first teen hop a long time ago that gave me the courage to not need to wear matching ones. Yes, this is a beauty of a poem growing beneath flowers and light ... good stripey sock is the ground. roK oN !!!!! ... Moqui

    I don't own a single pair of stripey socks. Not that I really need them to make me do stuff, I have £4.19 a bottle, M&S red wine to do that.

    Unfortunately, no amount of red wine will help me do my essay on the Industrial Revolution. Who cares about the wIndy Rev (as I call it) anyway? It happened years ago, ages ago, it's yesterdays news. It's history, just plain old fashioned, half cocked, half full, red blooded, underwired, half empty, mutton-dressed-as-lamb, done and dusted, dusted and done, flaccid and lifeless history.

    Still, at least you now know that I'm still alive, which puts your mind at rest no doubt.

    Anyway, I liked your poem. 'nuff said really

    Giggle-icious

    Oh me oh my this made me smile,
    it is a little known secret you see
    that I just love to lounge and beguile
    whilst wearing stripey socks,

    I can do all the little things
    that my mischievious nature brings
    like wear a big bat shaped hat
    no one notices what's on my head
    they are staring at my socks instead!

    Oh,please excuse the crime-rhyme
    but your poem is so daftly devine
    that I couldn't resist a verse
    please don't ever stop
    advocating wearing stripey socks!


    This verse was brought to you
    by an avid viewer of stripey sock productions!!!

    In terms of apparel, for one's feet, of course,
    The source of happiness has been endorsed.
    It's not Gucci, nor Oxford, no shoe will do,
    You found the secret known only to few.
    To some it may come as a bit of a shock,
    The answer is found in warm Stripey Socks.

    Didn't the Witch that Dorothy dropped on,
    Wear a pair with nice stripes as her feet were withdrawn?
    And Pirates of old were obviously sold
    On Stripey Socks when their feet got cold.

    Pixies and Faeries have known for years
    That nice Stripey socks wrought nothing but cheers.
    They speak fondly of yours, I hear them each day
    Frolicking in Striped Socks as they laugh and play.

    You bring smiles and rainbows when you enclose
    Your tootsies and toes in those knee high hose.
    To read of the wicked joys that they bring
    Gave me giggles and wings to make my spirit sing.

    I thank you dear Gal for the smile I now carry.
    Your tale of de feet has sure made me merry.
    As panties may give one a nice warm buttocks,
    For feet, true bliss comes from your Stripey Socks.


    Still giggling... you crazy little girl

    All About the Imagery

    ....Definitely this was a case of: Too much unwanted-wanted imagery but nevertheless the humor of it all is that it actually does happen in real life. Definite kudos to you on this

    Stripey Socks are like an excuse to act like a kid again. PERFECT. I love the format. The coloring is great. I feel as if this was a random poem that just came to you in a dream, but that makes it that much better.

    I love it! Its a great poem, brilliant flow. This particular bit actually made me laugh out loud:
    And never ever hold it in
    just pee inside their pool
    It's a good thing I wasn't drinking tea at that moment or it would have ended up across my keyboard via my nose!
    I've had a rubbish day and this has cheered me up somewhat! So thanks for a great poem!

      Still editing, its not easy to post a poem when the space in between the stanzas will not stay - i was cursing Kevin - his ears are probably ringing
