She's a fistful of feisty,

Redheaded temper with flair.

Just don't make the mistake

Of handing her a dare.
Guess who?

(smiling) I'll tell on myself...a little... my first wife was a redhead...and a temper to match. We were both too young to learn how to deal with each other and the world...but I still have a soft spot for redheads..( laughing)

LOL, did she have to have the last word? Actually, I have 2 sisters and 1 brother who were redheads (now partly grey ) One sister was always quiet and timid. And I had a redheaded aunt, an uncle...well, you get the picture. But this one in the poem is part of our Pips family.

Will she see herself when she reads it?

but you just reminded me of the time I was in junior high school and dyed my hair red with a temporary hair dye, and it came out sooo bright red and people began calling me Peg Bundy LOL..I was soo upset and it took 4 months to finally wash out!!! It was supposed to wash out in 24 shampoos but it didnt! I was looking to sue the company heheheh

Oh, the redheads are coming out for this one.   Helen was my mom's name, and she had auburn hair.  How do you know it isn't about you? Hehe.

Well Kacy this is such a treat
Described me here from head to feet
How no one knew that it was I
I scratch my head and ponder why
For only one has figured out
The redhead here without a doubt
For he well knows how one fares
When giving out to redhead dares

*giggle*  Cute write Kacy, I love it. All the redheads are coming out for this one!! LOL Thanks for this one, it’s fun.    

If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please?

LOL at your reply, Tracey. You reply was a very good poem. Yes, you know   who did guess.  But I suspect there will be a few others who will recognize you in this one. Glad you (and all the other redheads) enjoyed it.
BTW, are you Spit or Spat???? I kind of guessed Spit....

Larry, you are very subdued on this one. Is your Lady a redhead?

Tracey, LOL. You're just an easy target   Spit, for sure. (But you can't be SpitFire.)

Rosepetals25, I doubt that. I'm pretty sure you have some fire in you. Shall I ask Dave?

Thanks for reading, this was a fun piece to write!

Robert, thanks for reading! And you will fit in just GREAT! We do have fun here.


And ALAN, so sorry, I misread earlier and called you Larry. My apologies. But the question/comment remains.

Now....Where is that Larry, anyway?

Well, being half Irish, I think I know and I think I know how to "handle" a redhead {presuming it is not a henna rinse }

Jenn is right!!!   Redheads rule!!
So watch out you guys!  Is my pic up here?  Oh yeah it is....and I do not have a feisty temper!  MUCH!!   Love this I do...does this mean that most writers are redheads?   Perhaps we should do a survey!  ~Nancy~
