Verse And Worse

Random Wit, Errant Rhyme. Not A Literary Crime

Geometry is all about checking every angle
Harmony is all about avoiding every tangle
Algebra is just the art of sorting out equations
Diplomacy is what you use at family occasions

The last line made me laugh out loud.

Marla said...

The last line is quite true!

Geography is all about what goes where
History is all about who was there
Ethics is all about was it fair,
Love is all about....if you dare...

It all started when Grandma lost her plastic dentures in the punch. They floated up top with the ice where all us kids could see them. Gram fished them out and told the maid to go ahead and serve the punch to us kids.

That's when my cousin Clint assured us it would be all right, because all the germs stayed at the top. Then he leaned over to the maid and said, "Dip low, Mazie. Dip ow."

That is so true! And I love lavinia ladyslipper's addition. And quilly's tale... ewwww!

What about:

Reading is all about words and books,
Art is all about how it looks,
Writing is capturing a moment's flight,
Whilst dancing with a lover deep into the night...
