Nit Picking

How do you pick a nit?

 

Is a nit like a gnat

 

can you wear it on your hat?

 

Do you pick it off a tree

 

or like a scab upon your knee?

 

Might you pick it like a rose

 

or can a nit grow in your nose? 

 

Do I stay in to pick a nit

 

and go out to throw a fit?

 

Wait, wait! …


do all these questions

 

make me a nit-wit?

I would also put this in the “humorous” category because I was laughing all the way. What a wonderful thing for children to read.

Your poem also reminded me of an article that I'm putting together called, “Why do they call a,' [word],' a,' [word?]'.” Need all the help I can get with it.

I guess it depends on how much nit you can pick! Is this nit wit or what? M.True

Hey! Maybe a nit turns into a nat, and then lands on your hat, and then where does it 'goes?' It flies up in your nose.
Love this,

This has sort of a Dr. Seuss ring to it. Of course, I always enjoyed reading Dr. Seuss to my boys (just between the two of us, I enjoyed them myself), so "Nit Picking" is a hit with me. This play on words is a gem, Pat.

What a great sense of humor about a perplexing problem. I think you got it figured out, the last line tells me that…

Beautiful. Not the nit. Nope. But your treatment(?) of the nit. I'm sure of one thing, I do not want the nit in my nose.
