2 Syllable Rhymes

Thinking about Brian's recent Footle contest (my crazy eyes had been seeing FOOTIE all this time and just realized yesterday it is called FOOTLE with LE on the end) I proceeded to drive to the movie up in Salt Lake, only place I was able to catch a showing of Chloe. As I drove up there, I was racking my brain for a Footle, and suddenly, they started coming to me. They are so short, I could easily jot them down on paper atop my steering wheel and it was a great way to occupy my time. Brian's little contest was a great inspiration for me. I ended up with more than thirty (I thought they needed to be rhymed on both syllables) so now that I know I can do the first syllable unrhymed, that should make it all the more easier to think up even more. Please let me know your favorite of the bunch and the ones that are too stupid in case I ever do a chapbook on these! YOu guys gotta try these. The trick is to rhyme the words and then make a title to fit the poem! LUv, Andrea Pickpocket Bunny Grab it Rabbit Offspring of Tinkerbell & Frodo Hairy Fairy Gerber’s Strained Peas Easy Pea sy Shirley Temple with a perm SURELY Curly Mrs. Ed on Laughing Gas Silly Filly A Greeter Hello Fellow Art of Love Hold ‘er Mold’ er Survivor Food Lizards’ Gizzards Grape Jelly Kiss Smucker Pucker Sour Lemons’ Motto Blew it! Screw it!
