Pea and Honey Recipes
help
I Eat My Peas With Honey
And tales of derring-do.
Four lines, they can be rhyming
(That's Glow Worms to me and you).
Ending line is as usual.

Chalky
And I'll just issue fines.
Software
I've knocked pen off her perch
CdM
And now await her wrath
Chalky
I'll meet it by yon silver birch
- [Rosie] Clearly you're asking the wrong people - I say yes let's!
Phil
In ashes and sackcloth
Rosie
I wish I spoke Hungarian
penelope
Bolivian or Urdu
Chalky
Instead of Rastafarian
Software
Here in Eglwyswrw
penelope
Can you confirm it's Thursday?
Raak
I've suddenly lost faith
Kim
I'll let you know tomorrow
Chalky
If it comes back as a wraith
.. somewhat limited opportunities for a noteworthy Line 4. Sorry.
Chalky
My thister wath a lithper
Phil
They thay that I wath too
Rosie
Tho I thpeak in a whithper
(Chalky) Ahem,
thithter.
Software
My thithter thouts through her thoe
Phil
Oh FFTh! Thcanthion ruined again :(
Chalky
*sigh*
Let's try again ..
Chalky
I find it hard to woll my r's
Simons Mith
- My hips are much too stiff
Software
So maybe my new implants
penelope
Will make me sound like Cliff
Wichard
Kim
[Pen] "Move", surely?
Kim
With lips as big as Jagger's
Software
And hips like Elvis P
Raak
The hands of Paganini
Phil
What a sexy freak I'd be!
Software
Autumn leaves are turning brown
penelope
Bikini prices coming down
Raak
Winter woollies trending up
Rosie
Then the sodding FA Cup.
Chalky
I hope I'll rhyme ABAB
Phil
Like 'glow-worms' mostly do
penelope
I'm not a freakish rhyme, you see
Rosie
My name's penelope.
Giertrud
A house divided cannot stand
Chalky
If walls are made of paper
Software
And living in a house of glass
Rosie
Is not my kind of caper.
I seem to have cocked up the last one rather gormlessly.
Phil
I'm glad that I'm not Rosie
Indeed - I'm amazed you got away with it, frankly :-)
Chalky
For he's got a girly name
[Rosie, Phil] Assumed it was an example of postmodernistic irony ..
Rosie
His real one? Don't be nosey
Software
That'd spoil his claim to fame
Software
CdM
I wish the House of Tudor
Phil
Were not so full of beams
Chalky
Its workmanship is cruder
Raak
It comes loose at the seams.
Raak
Kim
Thus fell the House of Usher
Phil
With all-pervading gloom
Rosie
'Twas worse than Soviet Russia
Chalky
But filmed - as was 'Khartoum'
- which also fell.
Kim
[Chalky]
I always thought they should make an animated version.
Rosie
I'm glad I'm not Vince Cable
Chalky
I really really am
penelope
It's sad that he's not able
Phil
To plug the cashflow dam
Chalky
I wish I had an air balloon
Software
I'd fly above your house
penelope
Sing love songs like a right buffoon
Phil
Until you are my spouse
penelope
I hate the thought of housework
Phil
It makes me quake with fear
Software
Thank goodness for my Dyson®
Chalky
And my maid from South Korea.
Guffawed at the balloon one - cheers Pen/Phil
penelope
I have a pip stuck in my teeth
I giggled at the housework one. I'm 50% there.
CdM
(That's too much information)
Software
I think it's time for flossing
Kim
And a quick expectoration
Rosie
I wish I were a garden rake
Shut up at the back.
penelope
A snag-toothed tidier-upper
Software
I'd lie hidden in the grass
Raak
A slapstick tripper-upper.
Phil
I wish I had a pint of beer
Rosie
Just like Nigel Farage
Software
I'd drink it down most publicly
penelope
There's nowt to disparage
Can we stop trying to rhyme things with 'Farage'? It limits the potential of t'rhymes. Ta v much.
When motorists are naughty
Raak
I give them one quick toot
Rosie
And shout "You're doing forty"
(pen) I wasn't. First appearance of Mr UKIP in this game.
Software
On the motorway to boot
Phil
I wish I were on holiday
Rosie
Boating on the Kennett
Software
Just sitting back and reading prose
penelope
Or scripts from Alan Bennett
Raak
If only I were twenty
[Rosie] Pen may have been thinking of Mr. Farage's recent appearance in one of the limerick games.
Chalky
And callow in my ways
Phil
I'd dream of lands of plenty
Software
And my many different lays
coat!
Kim
If I were only forty
Raak
I'd be half what I am now
Rosie
Though not in age, let it be said
Software
I'm just fat - and how!
penelope
If I should stumble over
Raak
And need help getting up
Simons Mith
To hire a crane is rather rude
Chalky
But sorry - needs must - yup!
... notably few rhymes for 'up'
penelope
My waistline is expanding
Rosie
Oh, what a brave admission
KagomeShuko
My feet are slow shrinking
Software
With every inch addition
Chalky
The time has come for action
Phil
A fitness plan perhaps
penelope
Holds less of an attraction
Raak
Than deep-fried bacon baps
penelope
I have no time for deadlines
Raak
I've better things to do
KagomeShuko
Like read a book or solve some crimes
Simons Mith
Or pop off to the loo
Phil
[SM] I genuinely spent over five minutes manfully resisting "loo" and "poo". Congratulations on giving in to your inner schoolboy :-)
Rosie
I wish I were a toilet roll
(Phil) Same here, largely because I thought I'd give
you
a go. Imagine my disappointment, though SM has valiantly maintained the tradition.
Software
The hard kind, not the soft
Oh-er, memories of school
Juxtapose
Sitting unused is the goal
penelope
So stash it in the loft.
Raak
The phoenix' cry is rarely heard
Let's try and raise the tone a bit.
Phil
A song so cold and bleak
KagomeShuko
For it is an ornery bird
Chalky
And someone glued its beak.
There's classy ...
Juxtapose
I took a class in classic art
Raak
I now know Bosch from Dürer
Kim
But the paintings in my pantry
Software
Are somewhat more obscurer
Chalky
Pre-Raphaelite is more my thing
Rosie
It's simply more expressive
KagomeShuko
Dante and his art-for-art
penelope
And ladies part-undressive
penelope
The cubists' art is thus defined:
Chalky
Abstract with no perspective
Software
Which makes it look less like the real
Rosie
And more like the subjective.
Phil
All art is tosh, I would opine
Simons Mith
Except for this piece by Divine
