Laura Leiser August 29, 2020 at 9:06 PM What a fun and funny alliterative poem, John!! This was very entertaining! :) John Watt August 29, 2020 at 9:32 PM Thanks, my friend! It was time to put on my silly hat!

Gershon Wolf August 27, 2020 at 5:32 PM Those Yakkity Yaks have me grinning, John. Thanks, Gershon John Watt August 27, 2020 at 5:59 PM Knowing I made GW smile makes me smile. Thanks for all the wonderful visits and comments today, my friend!

Andrea Dietrich August 25, 2020 at 2:16 PM Brilliant!! Instant Fave. I think these two close together were my favorites: Showoffitty Sheep Buffoonic Bulls great way to end it all too. John Watt August 25, 2020 at 2:35 PM WOW, thanks for the fave, Andrea! Didn't know this one would have that effect. I found it isn't all that easy making up new adjectives without starting to repeat yourself with -ious words.

Jan Allison August 25, 2020 at 11:00 AM what a fun poem John i love the crazy made up words and the yakkety yak line is perfect, I love daffious donkeys and goofian goats:-) hugs Jan xx John Watt August 25, 2020 at 12:43 PM Thank you Jan for your detailed comment. One thing Caren and I have in common is a love of made up words; hope she enjoys these. Hugs

Judy Ball August 25, 2020 at 8:50 AM Loved this John. Being an animal lover it gave me a grin. Great stuff. In my previous poem the ass in the bathtub was a real live donkey. God Bless, JB John Watt August 25, 2020 at 8:56 AM Used to make us kid's laugh in church when the minister would read the 10 commandments in King James translation: "Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's ass". COULD NOT STOP LAUGHING! Oh my, I might not make it into heaven thanks to that transgression! John Watt August 25, 2020 at 8:53 AM Hi Judy, glad you clarified, because they censored your "ass" (so to speak) it showed up as "***". But that was my guess, I couldn't think of any other 3-letter words that would get censored, haha! Glad you got a chuckle out of this silly write ~ John
