Premium Member Pardon the Grammar

I keep dilly-dallying to compose 
my very own debut book!!
The more I read, seems all 
the cool plots are already took!

Premium Member Coquette

well made up as she knew
looking sexy in shredded jeans
dilly dallying round high street
giving the eye to men
who all knew she was not worth it

Premium Member dilly dallying danny

dilly dallying danny deliberately defies
daughter dinahs deliberations
denise does donuts during danny’s debate
roaring, rearing, ready rusty ruminations
rarely recognizable, really riling up dinah’s
dander.

after much dilly dallying
olive branch is proffered

mind analyses
looking for a motive

heart embraces
knowing only love

nonchalance 
smiles and yawns

consciousness triangulates
all aspects of its awareness
mode and mood celebratory

Premium Member Dilly-Dally Dabbling

Listen to poem:
He dabbles in this, dips his toes in that
Dithering with daubs, splattering dollops and spatters
Dilly-dallying, loitering lazily lackadaisical
Unable or unwilling to commit.
Half-hearted efforts lie half-baked, unfinished
Laying listless, languidly lolling and littering.
It's so annoying to see time wasted and fortuity fraught
But what can anyone watching do?


Finally

Dilly dallying fumbling about, pitter patter falls the rain outside. Jovial, my nerves, worn... long patches run up-and down the carpet floor. Whack tap, lightening crashes, I cringe hold-my-breath, my new baby cousin... cries, my-heart... it soars! Author notes http://allpoetry.com/ban/show/6960 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F4OXrmxDp44

Dilly dallying fumbling about, pitter patter falls the rain outside.

Jovial, my nerves, worn patches run up-and down the carpet floor.

Whack tap, lightening crashes, 
I cringe hold-my-breath, my new baby cousin... cries,
my-heart it-soars!

Premium Member Luscious Strawberries My Tongue Can Wrap Around

Sister,
Hurry. Hurry.
Stop dilly-dallying,
The ice-cream truck is coming round.
If we don't hurry up it'll have a crowd.
Another scorching humid summer day.
How I'd fancy this afternoon
A dish of ice-cream topped
With strawberries,
Sister

My Dilly Dally Dog

I'd let my lab outside to do his numbers
him acting like a sleuth cool as a cucumber
with me on a schedule I'd be checking the time
him dilly dallying like it was no crime,

Sniffing every single bush, tree and blade of grass
me trying to be patient and not too crass
finally saying "would ya hurry it up" while he sniffs the clover
which he thinks is his other name besides the real one Rover.
