Raul Moreno Poet Couplet

Word Morph – Moses To Nigel

Christie  MOSES is a great poetess.
Her pen  MOVES with great finesse.

For  her  MORES in poetic verse,
Are like  MOREL mushrooms immersed;

Sautéed  MOTEL hot delicacies; 
Ice cold  HOTEL chilled daiquiris. 

Relate a  HOVEL to nice accommodations, 
Is  like a NOVEL with poor adaptations. 

For  my  NAVEL hurts when I laugh,
By   the  GAVEL of laughter’s  wrath.

I  try to  RAVEL all that I have learned,
But  the  RIVEL of my broken heart burns.

Orion’s   RIGEL, Bellatrix, and Betelgeuse, 
And PS’s NIGEL and Christie are my muse.
