I need a hug, a knuffel and a cuddle
I need them all you see because I'm really stressed
every day I'm typing only silly numbers
what I should do now is just put my head at rest

The government is breathing in my neck
because they want to test all sheep of this rare breed
but someone threw away all paper pedigrees
so I've to type them one by one again indeed

I'm seeing fivers, flying sixes and some sevens
a nasty eight is doing push ups with a ten
I'm going mad I think, I'm dancing with a twenty
this has to stop some day, but I just don't know when

I've asked myself when I was looking in the mirror
"Are you nuts or something, typing all those numbers"
I should've listened to my hubby when he told me
"You want to raise something? Why don't you try cucumbers"

But when I look into the eyes of little lambs
I feel butterflies in my belly swinging 'round
so I need desparately a hug, a knuffel and a cuddle
before I find myself all numbered on the ground

A rose is a rose is a rose...I guess...

Tita darling girl as always you write with such skill and wonderment this is excellent writing from you. Exquisite flow and the rhyme are utterly utterly spectacular This poem has some of the funniest lines I’ve read it made me smile a lot, the form is utterly utterly divine, and I love it I truly do.

Here’s a hug just for you
I made if from fairy’s dew
Wrapped it in a big grin
Slipped it in this cake tin
Take a slice of hug today
It will chase the blues away

Utterly utterly utterly perfect

Love and warm stuff
As always
Mushy

I should've listened to my hubby when he told me
"You want to raise something? Why don't you try cucumbers"

But naming cucumbers after poets wouldn't have been nearly as fun.  Hugs, Titia.

Seems to me if you were raising cucumbers
you would get yourself into quite a pickle...

Enjoyed this!

LOL @ Elan!!

Dear Titia, I don't understand
This poem that I see.
I thought you had a lot of knuffels
Bringing them to me!

You promised I would get a lot
Adorned with adolation
But now it seems you need to seek
Some knuffel-filled donations!

Hey, I don't want one second-hand!
I do not feel amused.
You promised me a knuffelsack
But I don't want them used!!

If your supply is now so low
That you must seek them out
My hopes of being inundated
Is now in serious doubt.

Come over here, sweet poet you,
And I'll fill your supply.
You'll never want for them again
Until the day I die!

Noah, thanks for your most lovely reply

Nan, I'll send you a hug and knuffel in return, I think you need them too right now

Nightshade, thanks, I'm still sane (I think)

Marsha sweet girl, I'll tape your daily hugs to my pc, so I see it every day

Enchantress, your hug is more than welcome, thanks

Mysteria, you probably know by now what a knuffel means

Duncan, can't tell one cucumber from another, no fun at all

Larry, now you know, can I still have one?

Mommy Muys, it really is not as bad as I put it here I'll still have time enough to help you post your lovely rhymes.

Midnightsun, you're more than welcome to join me here in the numberdance LOL

Elan, I'm already getting quite pickled up here, don't need cucumber at all to accomplish that

Balladeer
Don't be afraid that you get secondhand knuffels
I'll keep some specials in my big knuffelsack
I'll cherish them and hold them till we meet
And yours are more than welcome Michael Mack

Untill the day you die you said?
will you be filling my supply?
Oh Deer oh dear, am I a lucky girl
I'm and can only sigh

A rose is a rose is a rose...I guess...
