Verse And Worse

Random Wit, Errant Rhyme. Not A Literary Crime

Did I cause you any bother
When I dressed as Hiawatha?
I should have warned the clan and brethren
When I donned war paint with featherin'

Just have to tell you brother
Before you're told this by another
That when wearing feathers + paint
I might think you're what you ain't

You're a poet
And don't know it.
But your feet show it.
They're long fellows.

My mother used to say that. Your verse reminded me.

Talk in rhyme
All the time

Dressing up with a feather
Can take my mind off awful weather.
But you are risking all you got
'Cos cowboys will come & take a shot.

Loved this, David! I've been playing a lot of scrabble lately with Sandi and noted that we both know a lot of old english words. The language you use in this particular verse has a wonderful feel to it. :-)

Cheers!
