Poem
Word Play Lines My main line muse stepped over a line – My confuser got confused off line Rhymes on strike, my pen went dry in a stiff hard line Thesaurus got clean away flying through the pipeline. I searched for foot lines on the moon in bluest of blue lines Then looked around for yards and yards of a water line At the park dropped a line running through a tag line Then my hash line ran away again between the lines. Drank some punch line, giggles burped – crossing the line Found a lucky cooper penny on the green A line - Crossed a plot line, story screamed like angry beelines Out of line couldn’t find all the frayed drag line! Dinner time, thick beef steaks on the firing line Front and center, calories feeding me a story line Smorgasbord of sights and smells lay it on the line Honeyed, gooey just desserts lead me to some sweet lines. Went to a bar almost bought all the current date-lines Hollow words of neck lines – what a bunch of air-lines Took the bus – had to duck – bruises on my headline Tripped then fell - almost drown in the bottom line. Gained some weight – oh, oh, no – now too snug my belt line A little late –running tardy way behind the time line Invitation RSVP to conga in the party line Rows and rows of polka-dots, line up on the dotted line. Muse returned from her day – fainted on the deadline Had to duck, words run amuck in the mixed up chorus lines Told me this was asinine feeding her a landline Not too late! Get it straight! Balance on the fine line. 7-9-21 Contest: Word Play Poems with Play-On-Words Sponsor: John Anderson
