For the Love of Pants

For the love of fresh coffee
Clumsy movement while groggy
Spilled coffee beans on the floor
Will get some at the bookstore

For the love of a new book
Out the door for a quick look
It’s at the local bookstore
A release I can’t ignore

For the love of god I pray
Nobody sees me this way
As I rushed from the shower
I forgot to don trousers

  1. Jen this made me laugh! I remember the release of the 5th Harry Potter book and because the boys and my husband were on a boy scout trip, I was charged with securing a copy! Hehe! I managed to get my pants on but this is so what happened! And then I went home and was able to read it through uninterrupted!! Good times and a great poem!!

  2. Jen, like Val it made me laugh too and I am reminded of the same incident when I have to run to the bookstore to claim the book one of my daughters ordered, I was in a hurry, I forgot to change my slippers. 😃 in case you are wondering why I was in a hurry….the message clearly emphasied that if we don’t get the book immediately they will give it another client.
