Rhyme Time

In time and on time,
Good time and bad time.
Do time and done time,
Glad time and sad time.

Mark time and make time,
Last time and first time,
Tell time and take time,
Best time and worst time.

Save time and waste time,
Make time and lose time,
Bake time and taste time,
No time and choose time. 

All the time and some time,
Day time and night time,
Leave time and come time,
Wrong time and right time.

Sleep time and show time,
Fast time and slow time.
Reap time and sow time
And know it's time to go time.


For Paula's say The Word Contest. Received HM

Cool entry, Joyce! You've got the time -- I'll spend the dime. Remember when phone calls used to cost ten cents? Great meter and the internal/external rhyme is outstanding. All sorts of "times." Love, Carolyn
