The poem I shall carry in my pocket

Pocket Praise Poem

You can put things in a pocket, like your cell phone, or your keys,
Or your comb, or your wallet, or other useful things like these.
Why don't all clothes have pockets? Clothes for women often don't -
A tux will have a pocket, but a ball gown prob'ly won't.
For a long time I resigned myself to fashion's unfair curse,
And carried all my stuff around in an enormous purse,
But then I searched for clothes with pockets on the internet,
And found a lot of pocket-bearing clothes that I could get.
There's a pocket on my t-shirt, there are pockets in my jeans,
And a groovy hippie tunic that has pockets in its seams!
I'm so glad that I have pockets! I'm so happy my clothes show 'em,
That the Poem In My Pocket is this pocket-praising poem!
