A Belt That Fits

Skinny little fellow, I am.
I never could find
A belt that fits
So I’d walk around
With one several sizes too wide
So every few steps
I’d have to stop and hoist my trousers
Back up somewhere decent...
It never bothered me much
You know how I am
With things like that...

You made me get a belt that fits
Not that you said anything
Or complained, or suggested it, no;
You made me get a belt that fits
’Cause, you see,
It drove me half mad
Walking beside you
And having to free my hands up
Every few strides or so.

You made me get a belt that fits;
You see, that was the only way;
It was the only way I could walk beside you
Without ever having
To let go of your hand.

Wonderful! Such an interesting poem. Left me with a smile. You are a good writer.

Kind of threw me for a loop when I started reading it, but as I continued I had to smile at the clever way you wrote this poem. An enjoyable read, and Ill agree with Thea, different than other love poems, but no less appealing. Bravisimo
