ADVERSARY RHYMES 10 11 & 12

Michael Edwards

ADVERSARY RHYMES 10, 11, & 12

Round and round the waistband

Oh what a naughty pair

One step

Two step

And it’s tickly under there.

Betty bathed in bitter butter

But it made the butler mutter:

‘Bitter butter makes me splutter

Best put butter down the gutter

Baby oil beats bitter butter

and it makes my eyelids flutter’

Cock-a doodle-doo

The maiden hasn’t a clue

The master plays with his fiddling stick

And he shows her what to do.

Ohh, I'm all of a swoon after this lot! Slap and tickle; baby oil; and fiddling stick. Is that similar to Ken Dodd's tickling stick?! heehee.

Nothing like a tickling stick Orchi - it's a violin of course - isn't it?

Didn't know you can make love with a fiddling stick! 🙂
Am I wrong, or are you getting a little bit nasty here?

I love the readers’
interpretations...
to each his own...
as the old saying goes!
I enjoyed the read!
Great painting to
illustrate your writing!
