Tongue Tanglers

To write a tongue twister is not funny mister I just don’t know where to begin There’s one that I’ve written with which I’m quite smitten But I’d had a very large gin... Workers wrinkles worsen when wind worsens winters worst weathers If your decision is instant derision I guess I should try it again So here is another, I pray to my mother That your words will not cause me pain Working writers write written works: Writing workers write workers rights But too many choices in too many voices Might just leave some of you floored So I think one more is plenty before I leave every one of you bored... Fierce forest fires frazzle thrushes feathers So, okay, I’ll brave it and say that’s my fav’rit I hope that it tangled your tongue But if that one didn’t but one of them did It means that my song had been sung P.S...

Thank you Paula. I don’t know where in my brain box they came from but I jotted down about twenty before inflicting those few on the world. Glad you liked. Terry

Thank you Jan. To be honest, I wasn’t sure quite what Joe was looking for... just the tongue twister itself or with a poem written around it. In the end I decided on the above. Glad you liked. Terry
