The letters that spell "economic"
Hide both INCOME and MICE
It would be "comic" if "no" women inside
Left just "men" with family responsibilities

       a nimble tongue reaches deep

Tandem means finally.
Latin wordplay.
But here it means mirroring
But not.

Having

A storm sister, 
an exit buddy.

to my poet peers,
in this PS sphere;
where many shed a tear
with  talk of yesteryear;
Few puns do I hear !

Premium Member Bigfoot Yeti Sasquatch Yowie poem

The Abominable Snowman
May try to melt into obscurity,
Yeti remains a glittering star
On the ecological ladder,
After a very, very long climb.

Yes indeed:
Bigfoot is a leg-end 
In its own time!

solemnly breathless in behemoth miasma
effect starts playing havoc with my asthma 
dropped in a world of despair, me as well
carrying dark in darkness - more is more

Premium Member Wordplay on Life


Life can be a twisted journey
       Like walking a path all ferny.
         "Life" comes from poetic writing,
            Line sublime flows with no fighting,
                   Live a poets journey exciting.

Space knows pace
Pace sure ace


Price holds rice
Ice in nice


Tact hides act
Act makes fact


Feel an eel
Steal binds teal


Play knows lay
Way prompts sway
