I decided to try my hand at hosting a contest...Fair and Square humorous patter sayings. I hope I can figure things out as I go!
Humorous Patter Sayings Bow to your partner now let's begin Lift your skirts and kick his shin Hold it tight and jump and cuss Don't worry you can't offend us Get her back gents, catch her quick Snap her bra lickadee split! Ain't she red now but comon let's dance If you never now’s your chance Got two left feet so you can't walk straight That's OK cause you can promenade Promenade up and promenade down Your the purdiest girl in the whole durn town Slap your knee and holler an’ wail Bend on down and shake your tail Tail, tail, pretty little tail If you pull it I won't tell I won't tell no sir yes ma'am Do-si-do, do it all again.

An interesting idea for a contest, but I must admit, I do not know what it is really about.. You have done a nice poem here..

That would be great! It's not the normal swing of things, not serious poetry, but I think it's fun! I hope you enjoy writing one! ;)

Square Dancing callers use rhyming sayings to instruct the dancers..."bow to your partner" Or " do-si-do". I love making up silly rhymes and lyrics so I thought it'd be fun to host a contest with this idea. In the contest description there are examples and a link to a video if your interested! Ty for commenting!!xo

So cute. Square dance music fosho. You're doing all the right things to get noticed. Be patient. Some new poets only post, never visit or comment on anyone else, never write for a contest etc., subsequently they languish. Some are quite good. Hope you're weekend is pleasant.

Thanks Tom! I'm enjoying all that poetrysoup has to offer! And I haven't gotten to most of it yet. I'm nervous about hosting a contest but nothing ventured, nothing gained! I'm so grateful for you and all the others who have been so encouraging. God bless you my friend!
