Premium Member Missing a Couth

A rakish young fellow from Duluth Completely hooked on gin and vermouth Drank like a fish Out of a dish Somewhere along the way lost his couth.

Raucous

Raucous, rollicking rain
Rambles on hills and plains,
Relishes rumbles in
Raptures of raw laughter,
Raindrops razzle-dazzle,
Rambunctious and rowdy,
Riots of rakish rascals

La Muse Bouche

I say to le "grand fromage".
You and your pastiche attachè.
You with all your rakish, cliche.
You think you're so Debonair.
You with another au pair.
You and one more rendezvous.
You again it's déjà vu.
You and another faux pas.
You always with Au revoir.
I say so much "bon voyage.

Sly Snake

Sly snake what a rakish slither
belly walker cunning talker
Persuade the moon to buy the sky
Charging moonbeams by the hour

Fantastic fabulous frisky faeries flitter forever 
Luxuriously loving lady-like likeable lilies 
Obliterating outgoing outlandish ostentatious orchid
Wonderful whimsical warmhearted warlock wiggles wind 
Effervescent ebullient elegant elves eagerly expedite Echinacea 
Relieved rambunctious radiant roses replenishes rakish Rudbeckia

Premium Member A Rakish Tale

Once the “go to guy”
I linger, ever hopeful
Of a need to fill.
Long for the
Tickle
Of long grass
Crackle
of fallen leaves
Scent
of the garden.
I am older
my handle
slightly splintered
my tines
bent
several missing.
Mocked
by motored newcomers
I wait
knowing 
there are still times
that situations
will call for
The “go to guy”

A Dollup

A dollup
A trollup
A mole and a troll
Free spring it and wing it 
             …reach for the loftiest goals

A habit-ish hobbit
with a knob and grommet
is wearing a rakish sneer

All grasping and gobble
 foam and fobble 

Listen! 
and you can hear

A rabbit…"Gosh nabbitt!"

A frog and a log

…all frolic, bucolic in the wondrous bog

All foggy and noggy
And wet noodle woggy

   …The Farmaduke start to caw

Farmadukes Caw

A dollup…a trollup
A mole and a troll
Free spring it 
we wing it …while reaching for toffee-est loftiest goals

A habit-ish hobbit
with a knob and gromet
is wearing a rakish sneer
All grasping and gobble... foam and fobble - listen and you will hear!

A rabbit…Gosh nabbitt
A frog and a log…all frolic bucolic in the wondrous bog
but get foggy and noggy 
and wet noodle woggy…

when the Farmadukes start to ...caw ...caw ...caw
fun

Patty's Proclamation

Partly patient possibly passionate pretty Patty played prissy.
Rarely romantic rugged rakish Randy reacted with rejection.
Quickly quashing questions quixotic quietly quitting this quandary
she sashayed skirts and simply said sayonara sucker!


* note *  my sissy made me giggle out loud when she tried.
               A couple friends too ,sounded like they were pie-eyed!!

Rhymes are quite useful for

     recording a moment,
 
          recanting a story,

   reposing with great words,

       reflecting on life and . . . 

refuge from forms random,

             radiant or rakish.
