Playing With Words

Playing with Words is Just a Funny Phase
Philosophical Phil’s phonetic phrase
Magnetized magazines moving in a maze
Generating goodwill in a gazelle’s goofy gaze
Cramping crafty crayfish in a crazy craze.
Depriving deranged deputy Dibby Daze
Playing with words is just a funny phase!

Gliding glimmer glasses glowing glaze.
Blackbird blabbermouth blessing blaze.
Haphazard Happiness hardening haze,
Greeting grotesque greenhorns as they graze.
Poetizing with silliness is just my own sweet craze.

L Milton Hankins Date: 2/4/2022 9:10:00 AM I love it, Caren. Every once in a while we simply have to let our silliness out. It's both refreshing and calming to the soul. Good one!
