Six seven
Itโs half past eleven
Hear the tolling of the bell
Now, sit, I have a story to tell
๐ฆ
Alone in my home
With the urge to roam
I paced across my floor
I knew I needed to go to the store
๐ช
So, I laid out my clothes
And painted my toes
Then jumped into the shower
To make myself smell like a flower
๐ฟ
With soap in my eyes
I fantasize
About being in heaven
Six seven
๐งผ
Iโm 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
๐ถ
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
๐ซง
Rinsing my salt and pepper hair
Belting out Beyoncรฉ with such flair
Six seven
Oh, how I wish I had a raven
๐ฆโโฌ
Iโm imagining how cool that would be
Suddenly, I feel eyes on me
Freaking, I shout out
Looking around, there is no one about
๐
Sensing Iโm not alone
I wished Iโd brought my phone
Nervously, I continue to lather
My singing turned to a blather
๐ต
Now itโs 12:11
Six seven
Keyed up
Shook up
๐
With one hand on the wall
Trying to prevent a fall
I try to rinse the soap
Feeling like a dope
๐ฅด
With a clean face
I tentatively start singing about that bass
As I finish up with my bath
Suddenly, the curtain is in the waterโs path
๐
Good God help me, please
I say as I fall to my knees
Turning to look
I expect to see a spook
๐ง
Oh, dear
I was full of fear
I shivered
I quivered
๐จ
I squealed right out loud
I was completely cowed
As I turned around to see
What spirit wouldnโt let me be
๐ป
Lo, and behold
Sitting ever so bold
Sat a furry little imp
Making me feel like a huge wimp
๐
With her tiny black paws
She reached out with her claws
To give me another tap
Giving me inspiration for this rap
๐พ
For with her big green eyes
She does mesmerize
My little tag-along
Sheโs tiny, but strong
๐ตโ๐ซ
Six seven
Busting out even
This is all I have to share
Now, Iโm 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.

So fun and clever. This made me grin from start to finish.
I must have missed this Sharon. You are getting pretty good with rhymes. Did you actually fall in the shower.- Yes, I read the whole poem, and I said to myself, she actually fell in the shower. I hope you are ok. Cute kitty, I enjoyed this poem, not your fall. Nicely Done!!
Very cute poemโฆ love the reveal at the end.
Fabulous work Mother! ๐ซถ๐พ๐๐ช๐พ

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! ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ 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
I hear, this number is everywhere, The viral trend of internet.
