Premium Member Overgrown

I'm not quite up to snuff,
should the wind give me a puff
I'd simply fall over
like a worn-out clover
that's lost its own shadow
in an overgrown meadow

Premium Member The Harlem Globetrotters

The Globetrotters haven't had enough Thrilling crowds with their magical stuff Magic it was Creating a buzz A hoop at the bell was sure up to snuff

Premium Member Dandruff

Too bad we can't adjust the color of our dandruff To the color of our clothing each day, maybe a shade of buff Or perhaps chartreuse Maybe a baby blue Everyone would want dandruff to be up to snuff

Sew What

My new quilting teacher’s a guy
Which proves why you cannot get by
With presuming you know
Just which person will show
If the course list does not specify.

He’s delightful and knows all his stuff
And his skills appear quite up to snuff.
In his class I can grow
Since this teacher’s a pro
And that knowledge is more than enough.

Race Against Time

Other needs are cast aside;
Phone calls unreturned.
Invitations all denied;
Friends become concerned.

Two weeks’ time is not enough;
I’ll never get it done.
Guess I’m just not up to snuff,
But then, is anyone?

Three times longer than the rest,
Too wanted to renew;
I’m loving it, but I am stressed – 
My library book is due!

Up To Snuff

Everything can feel so tough
When someone isn’t up to snuff.
Your best may not be good enough
Although you try and try.

What often happens off the cuff,
As simple as a powder puff,
May suddenly seem raw and rough,
A truth you can’t deny.

So if you’re acting grim and gruff
Because you lack your normal stuff,
You just might not be up to snuff
And that’s the reason why.

Thumbs Down

Stars can never guarantee
A movie will be good,
Nor can advertisements 
Which come out of Hollywood.

Is it worth one’s time to see
A top-notch actor acting
In a film so bad the few good scenes
Become distracting?

Don’t the actors realize
That this flick’s not up to snuff?
Maybe earning so much money
Justifies enough.

Still, it’s disappointing
When performers choose to star
In a movie for which somebody
Has clearly dropped the bar.
Form: Rhyme

Custard

Today I had some custard
But it didn't cut the mustard
Though I really thought that it would be the best.
Guess you can't make an assumption
Based on ice-cream loving gumption
That what looks impressive must leave you impressed.

So the next time I'll be cautious;
Though this didn't make me nauseous,
It was mediocre and not up to snuff.
A prediction's surely wasted
'Cause until your tongue has tasted
All that other information's not enough.
