Six seven
It’s half past eleven
Hear the tolling of the bell
Now, sit, I have a story to tell
🕦
Alone in my home
With the urge to roam
I paced across my floor
I knew I needed to go to the store
🏪
So, I laid out my clothes
And painted my toes
Then jumped into the shower
To make myself smell like a flower
🚿
With soap in my eyes
I fantasize
About being in heaven
Six seven
🧼
I’m singing a new tune
About loving you under the moon
When I feel a touch on my shin
Making me turn in a crazy spin
🎶
Seeing nothing nigh
I breathe a huge sigh
And continue on with the scrub
As I resume with a new song, rub-a-dub-dub
🫧
Rinsing my salt and pepper hair
Belting out Beyoncé with such flair
Six seven
Oh, how I wish I had a raven
🐦⬛
I’m imagining how cool that would be
Suddenly, I feel eyes on me
Freaking, I shout out
Looking around, there is no one about
👀
Sensing I’m not alone
I wished I’d brought my phone
Nervously, I continue to lather
My singing turned to a blather
📵
Now it’s 12:11
Six seven
Keyed up
Shook up
🔑
With one hand on the wall
Trying to prevent a fall
I try to rinse the soap
Feeling like a dope
🥴
With a clean face
I tentatively start singing about that bass
As I finish up with my bath
Suddenly, the curtain is in the water’s path
🛁
Good God help me, please
I say as I fall to my knees
Turning to look
I expect to see a spook
🧛
Oh, dear
I was full of fear
I shivered
I quivered
😨
I squealed right out loud
I was completely cowed
As I turned around to see
What spirit wouldn’t let me be
👻
Lo, and behold
Sitting ever so bold
Sat a furry little imp
Making me feel like a huge wimp
😈
With her tiny black paws
She reached out with her claws
To give me another tap
Giving me inspiration for this rap
🐾
For with her big green eyes
She does mesmerize
My little tag-along
She’s tiny, but strong
😵💫
Six seven
Busting out even
This is all I have to share
Now, I’m going out for some air

A/N: Since Clementine is my youngest daughter's cat, and my youngest thinks it's funny to say six seven, I have interspersed it throughout this poem.

Ha ha ha. Cool rap MC. This 6.7 thing is so silly. Love the new hobby. Busting out a rhyme.
That was such a fun verse
This was so fun! I loved the "Six seven" touch.
I love Clementine! That was so fun to read and the 6-7s fit in purrfectly :)
Hahahahahahahaha I was wondering if the six seven was intentional or not. Looks like it was! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I laughed each time you said six seven!
This was both spooky and funny, Sharon! Loved six seven in this rap, certainly gave it a good rhythm and pace.
Since it's hot off the presses, I couldn't resist! A brilliantly fun and frivolous poem, and I especially love the playful rhyme-scheme. Clementine is beautiful, but I do see how that stare could freak anyone out! Just to say as well, many many thanks for all the likes and reads. I do appreciate it! And I've been meaning t have a look at your latest ever since I've been back. Glad I did!
Haha. I did wonder about the internet language seeping in . Now it makes sense. Bloody cats hahaha. Love this, Sharon. Glad your quick and witty mind is feeling more creative now. Hugs to you, my friend
