Jeff Kyser Poet Rhyme

Traipse Through the Wood

The radar’s plain
It’s going to rain
And I’ll be stuck
Inside again

Or maybe not
They’re wrong a lot
You never know
It’s worth a shot

Though wet, it’s warm
Imparts no harm
Does entertain
A certain charm

Wet’s understood
She thinks it good
So Miss and I
Traipse through the wood

L Milton Hankins December 9, 2022 at 7:03 PM I love it, Jeff. Not so much in a long, long time, but as children we lived in the woods. There's simply something magical about the woodlands and hiking. Well, you of all people understand this, Jeff. Thanks. Hmm...does "traipse" rhyme with "Christmas?"

Kim Rodrigues December 9, 2022 at 4:36 PM Venture out in the rain…go ahead and sing even ;) Jeff Kyser December 9, 2022 at 5:50 PM been known to do that, although it does scare the wildlife

John Lawless December 9, 2022 at 1:59 PM Traipsing.....traipsing.....next you'll be lollygagging.....which could lead to meandering Jeff Kyser December 9, 2022 at 5:51 PM lollygag - when you put the finished stick too far back in your throat?
