Once more, Delores, of The Feathered Nest as issued her challenge.
Once more, I harness the old brain and shove it into overdrive . . .
This weeks Wednesday's Words?
Gregarious, munchkin, tipple,
faint, carousing, bed pan
What am I gonna do with that . . .?
What else . . . a poem!
Delores, evil genius,
you,
“Write,” you say. And
write we do.
And from the words that you
present,
We must weave something opulent.
But tell me how, with words
I paint,
I’ll
match gregarious with faint?
And
Munchkin, I don't have a clue . . .
Do
Munchkins tipple? Tell me. Do.
I’ve
left carousing to the end,
For
what to do with that, my friend?
I
don’t carouse, and never will,
But
nothing else will fit the bill.
I’m
giving up, my brain is numb,
And
feeling just a little dumb.
There
is no way, it’s just too queer,
To
fit a bed pan somewhere here.
And
so I’ll stop, I’ve ‘uncle’ said.
My
brain has gone from numb . . . to dead.
P.S. I love this! Keep them coming, my friend!
P.P.S. Drop over to Delores' blog and check out what the others came up with!
I'll try not to be quite so evil next week. In the meantime I am humbled beyond measure to have a poem written in my honour.
ReplyDeleteIt's all for you, Delores!
DeleteHaHaHa. I congratulate all of you around the globe who chew those words up and spit 'em out.
ReplyDeleteIt's just way too fun!
DeleteOoooo ... nice approach, explaining why you can't use the words, and - in the process - using the words! ... I like it!
ReplyDeleteIt was my Husby's idea. Clever, clever boy!
DeleteYour brain may be numb, but it still turned out a good poem.
ReplyDeleteWhy thank you!
DeleteThat was fun! I guess I'm glad Delores has an evil streak! :) Way to turn lemons into lemonade!
ReplyDeleteOh, she definitely does! And thank you!
