The bitter bug

Submitted by Edward nigma on Sat, 2021-12-04 09:57

The bitter
bug begged
to bite her
but the girl
was a little
fighter.
So in spite
she took to
light him.
Then the
bashful bug
fled in fright.
Fleeing into
the mists
of the ashy
autumn night .

Now that is a poem. It is whimsical, stylish and wholly entertaining. Thank you for making my morning start off in a positive way

tongue twister! ~ Geez.

It seems that the days and hours that people
are available for chatroom are staggered and
not a good match for most everyone. How about
if everyone just shows up at the door, whenever
they have a few free minutes?

one my favorite types of poetry is tongue twisters because it fits with my alliteration.
and i was inspired by cole porters song the tale of the oyster
like i used the rhythm of it .
