A Little Bit Of Soap

                                                                         A LITTLE BIT OF SOAP

Mum says that I'm smelly

Dad says that I stink

But I'm scared to get a wash

In case I block the sink

Grandma says that I pong

Aunty say's I reek

But I don't need a bath 

I had one just last week

My socks I have to wring them out

There full of sweat and grime

And in between my toes

Are little bits of slime

Everyone say's I'm dirty

Get cleaned up they all do call

I only change my underpants

When they stick upon the wall

I like to write about topics that are somewhat frowned upon, such as this delightful little ditty about being smelly. You do a great job of keeping it light & sassy, explaining your preference for stench with matter-of-fact aplomb. Stand back & look at this poem in its entirety -- about half is the reaction of others & the other half describes the stink in playful ways. I could go for more of the playful stink descriptions, pumped up to a higher level. This poem cries out for more outlandishness. But I also very much like it this way, too! *smile* Fondly, Margie

Thanks for the review glad you liked it. Will try and take your advice regarding the suggestions that you've made

Lol, funny stuff here, George! That's typical behavior of little boys...and some men. My mother once told me the best way to keep a man out of water was to put dishes in it! ; )

Thanks for your comments. Glad you liked it..wrote it years ago when I was hiding in my cupboard at work.

[Kelly Scheppers]

Ok, I won't ask! ; )

I'm a cleaner, hate my job

[Kelly Scheppers]

I'm a cleaner, too. It's called "housework".

Great fun, reminds me of some boys (not all) of a certain age. Love the rhyme and flow. Light hearted entertainment.

Glad you like it and thanks for the comment. I'm trying to put some of my older poems up that I wrote years ago.

[Chris Shaw]

Is this the dirty one? lol

[George David Hope]

If you want a dirty one I can give you one...(That sounds so wrong on so many levels)

[Chris Shaw]

Well it is about soap, so I thought someone must be dirty:))
