Rosie
Who, frankly, was no Mona Lisa
. . . . this do-WADG-er
Software
Tried to drag me to bed
Marc
Said she needed my head
....and I'm not very bright either...
Chalky
So I chopped it right off, just to please 'er
Chalky
If you find yourself headless, take heed:
Projoy
Do not ride on a galloping steed
Raak
With no head, you can't see
Darren
And you may hit a tree
irach
('Though a headache pill you will not need)
Rosie
My overindulgence in eggs
Ain't no-one got rhythm? The penultimate one was a right clunker.
Anon
Has my tum encroaching my legs
Raak
I can't see my toes
Projoy
And am forced to impose
- [Rosie] For once I disagree. There was only one non-scanning line in that one (the first, "dowager" one).
Marc
Some eggnogs with Rhum, two –three kegs...
have an eggnog guys and your rhyming and rhythm will get so much better ;-)
Anon
As I drank my morning coffee
Juxtapose
My saucer slipped slightly
agee
last syllable in line one stressed I assume
Software
My cup, it did tip
Darren
Fluid spilled from my lip
Blob
And it looked like I'd just had a pee
-
Coat
Raak
My ogee has gone all awry
Projoy
So I think I'll just stand here and cry
Phil
For my arch is all wonky
Rosie
'Twas built by a donkey
Software
Who'd used the wrong value for pi
Projoy
Very good!
And into the fray once again
Software
Morniversers just have no shame
Projoy
[SW] Clearly!
Rosie
One can but despair
Blob
At their
Devil may care
Raak
Society must be to blame!
Juxtapose
I've had quite enough, let's secede
CdM
For then all the verse shall be freed!
Rosie
Rhythm - begone!
Cor, this i'n' 'arf poe'ic
Marc
Fell'as come on!
Oegy
Let's just claw at our eyes, till they bleed
:)
oops! drawing my line in the sand
When ones eyes are
BLOODSHOT
, and red
Darren
It's better to go back to bed
Marc
Try to stop the rotation
penelope
For your breakfast flotation
Software
Get up tomorrow instead
Projoy
A valiant hero in blue
penelope
Released a rock chick from the loo
Rosie
where, perfecting her licks
irach
She performed such tricks
Marc
As to fix steady dates with some glue
...maybe it's worth a try...?
Oeg
This gallant, with plunger in hand
. . . a handyman, t'is a noble vocation
Raak
Fights blocked drains throughout all the land
(which does scan, at the risk of a sprained tongue)
Marc
He will hammer and screw,
....hoping his tools are in order...
Kim
While you wait for the loo
Blob
And his bill's never more than a grand.
Projoy
My clarinet seems to have grown
Marc
It’s playing strange tones - yet unknown
Rosie
I shouldn't have watered it
. . . or taken liberties with the syllabic count :-)
Projoy
Hung, drawn or quartered it
(sorry, I know it's not the multiposting game, but I was passing and I thought I could help out)
Botherer
Now it sounds like a trombone.
Marc
You remember when old Uncle Andy
irach
Claimed he dated old Jessica Tandy
Rosie
The thought of those two
(Projoy) And I'm glad you did. Nothing wrong with posting 1st and 4th lines.
Phil
Makes me want to say "Ewwww"
Anon
For I'm appalled to find I am randy
irach
Bach played on a cheap pennywhistle
Rosie
If that don't appal you then this'll:
Projoy
Herr Mozart's accordion
Projoy
OK, bad rhyme... how about
de Falla on ice
Marc
Playing: Three blind mice....
Raak
Or Puccini played on a bull's pizzle.
Projoy
So could we try whisky instead?
