d’Verse Poets Pub – Quadrille #87: Quick! Nick us a poem!
–
Change of Plans
–
This poem has its nickers in a twist –
Is in a bit of a snit.
Someone has nicked the
words it wanted to wear today –
fancy words, high-heeled party words.
All that’s left are some everyday,
comfy words like
tea, books, you
Cute, fun, combining brevity with levity; first one, so far, to use knickers in a poem.

“tea, books and you” sounds PERFECT to me, Candy! And I LOVE the idea of a poem “wearing words.”
