Okay - while we're on the subject of socks . . .

Bamboo Socks
M. Pattie

I bought some Bamboo socks you see,
and now I’m quite excited.
They’re worth the price, and slip on nice;
I’m suitably delighted.

I think they’re made with magic
and a splash of abracadabrics.
I’ve since forgotten socks of cotton
and all other fabrics.

But Aunty Esther scorned my socks
so I felt I should say
“Good Golly Esther Polyester’s
just so yesterday”.

My Bamboo socks are luscious,
I just wash them once a week.
They’re made of wood so still smell good,
they breathe and never reek.

My Bamboo socks are fluffy, soft,
I wear them everywhere.
Just like a piece of Panda fleece
that’s shaved from off a bear.

I’m thrilled; exhilarated ‘bout
my pair of Bamboo socks.
I’m just so glad you’d think I had
some Bamboo in my jocks.

I love my Bamboo socks
I have but only one regret.
The Bamboo shoots sprout from my boots
when they get soaking wet.

Good to see you contributing Marty. A good example of finding something where others might not see any inspiration. A prominent Australian artist has said, we keep looking for the big picture, but it's been done, look at the small things right at your feet . You've done that, literally well done.

Great fun, Marty. Just watch out for panda bears...they luuuurrve bamboo!

Cheers
David

the Pandas might nibble your toes Marty! I can see the kids laughing at that.....

Much funnier if you substitute Jocks for socks and visa versa Marty

Then you would really have to watch the Pandas ?

Bamboo sprouts in the undies - ooh, how uncomfortable!
