Better Luck Next Thyme

A poet once tried to rhyme “turmeric”:
he ate ten big jars, and then murmured “Ick!”
His taste buds murdered,
poor dear old Bernard
bolted up three flights of stairs to be sick.

I Drink Therefore I Am

i am the him
in whimsy
i am the hymn
in stretching thyme
i am the time
in sometime
i am the sum
in assume
daring to add

Double Entendre

Does it really have to rhyme?
I'm not entirely sure
It simply takes me so much Thyme
Like it's a herbal cure

Perhaps it is to make you laugh
Is merely what is kneeded
Like dough and other moulding stuff
No creativity impeded

Premium Member if these raccoons were crows

Raccoons are in the ceiling having a whale of a time
They raided the kitchen and stole molasses and thyme
We cannot get up there, it is an enormous climb
If they were glitzy-loving crows, we could coax them down with a dime.

Premium Member Looking For a Perfect Rhyme

Feeling sublime looking for a perfect rhyme
rejecting halftime, bedtime, downtime
considering the pleasant tinkle of a chime
making faces at the sound of slime and grime
settling for a garden of lime and thyme.

Premium Member Eyeball Soup

Eyeball soup.  Wonderfully tasting.
Deliciously made, sweet and pasty.
Cinnamon-seasoned, also some thyme.
Vegetable laden, scrumptious and fine.
Fisheyes are best, but goats are good too.
Nothing sooths me like warm eyeball soup.

Premium Member Thyme

as I walk
through the
desert of time
my thirst
is immersed
in intolerable
pain dare I
withstand
a reach
for tomorrow
and whose
in command

a life in time
and dare I 
say grand
it beats its
reception 
and falls
to what's
planned

Premium Member A Well-Chosen Word

Never sacrifice meaning for a rhyme.
Hmm, I think that chicken could use some thyme.

Check the connotation, not just the sound.
A carefully chosen word is a hound.

Ev'ry stick you throw will come back to you
My next trip is the Andes of Peru.
Form: Couplet

Angel Hair Pasta

Virgin Oil encased
Oregano, Basil & Thyme
Fragrance ascend
Blond strands flyway
Garlic Shards dancing
Swim in the wind
Pulsing Beef Stake
Red River Flowing
Seeds flooding
Tightly-wadded
Expertly wound 
Wasp-hive
Atop her head
Angel hair pasta

Fortified Wine

In twilight between  two Suns
You've decided to drink the fortified wine
To close your eyes
to think of better days
with Thyme in Caskets
and all in sundry
marvelling at saviours
that are nameless
in the forests of Broceliande
singing to sunlit air
