Supply and Demand

Today there’s a 2-for-1 on my poems (in keeping with the challenge of the day!)

Supply and Demand

“Supply and Demand!”
Was the salesman’s command
When the sceptic said, “Sell me a Bic!”
“Write your name then!”
“But… I don’t have a pen.”
Said the suitably crestfallen cynic.

Disgruntled Daisies

There’s an insufferable queue
For the two Portaloos
And my bladder’s the size of a pea seed
The plants won’t be thrilled
But my modesty will
For I have my trustiest Shewee!

  1. LOL… 😀 Can you see my smile? These are too cute … great job with the prompt. Got my Day 10 in early, here it is http://kianadonaepoetry.weebly.com/1/post/2014/04/napowrimo14-day-10.html

    1. Glad you’re smiling! That’s what I was going for! Heading over to your blog now 🙂

  2. I can’t believe that wee tube thing exists! *blush* We are backward in being forward in that way, in S Africa.
    Mind you, Bic have lost out on a marketing opportunity for a 2-in-1 wee pen, haven’t they?

    1. A 2-in-1 handbag essential, a bit like the female equivalent of a Leatherman multi-tool?! Haha. You should patent the idea 😉

      1. It happens that I have a Leatherman on my belt (the deluxe version) at all times – but a squirt-aid is something new!

      2. Got to love a good Leatherman. But I guess there’s always room for improvement…!!

  3. I don’t see your Day 11 yet, but I’ll be back to check later. I’ve got mine up now, http://kianadonaepoetry.weebly.com/1/post/2014/04/napowrimo14-day-11.html
