Humorous (?) Poems


Open and Shut

I like things closed/But she likes them open/She opens/I close/And we work well together.

I like sponges behind the faucet/But she likes them leaning over counter’s edge /She leans over/ I put back/ Move the sponge/ Put it back/ Return/ Replace/ And we work well together.

I joke and she laughs/ I tease and she falls for it again/ She pokes me in the ribs/ I go “Ow!”/ And we work well together
