Verse And Worse

Random Wit, Errant Rhyme. Not A Literary Crime

Be wary of noon on a midsummer scorcher
Going out in the sun is my notion of torture
I’m parched and I’m dry and however I try
I’m consumed by fear that I’m going to fry

  1. "I’m consumed by fear that I’m going to fry
    Like ten little sizzlers so run to the porcher"

    OK so I admit I should have rotten vegetables thrown at me for that one; but you do realize there is absolutely nothing that rhymes with scorcher and torture so I had to resort to my own devices.

  2. I take it that it's still unbearably hot down there!

    You did a great job with rhyming scorcher and torture. English spelling and pronunciation can be/is very strange.

  3. I sure hope you don't fry and that you get some relief from your heat and drought.
