Jslambert Mister Roboto Poet Light Verse

Scrabble Quagmire

At the scribble Scrabble table
I'm raising the bar
by adding seven lucky tiles  to your letter R

Vanna please let me buy a vowel or 
can I have a few?
I'll take A, E, I , skip the O and gimme a U

Please allow me three more letters to
fill my desire
I'll take a Q, G, and M to make the word QUAGMIRE



* Written for Nancy Jone's "Scrabble Contest"
