Thursday,Jan 1 2009, 10:01:44 AMRhyme for new year

Last night we played the poetry game. We each wrote the first three lines of a poem at the top of a sheet of paper. The first two lines had to rhyme, the 3rd line just had to continue the "story" or theme, Then we folded over the top two lines and the next person had to write one line that rhymed with the one that could be seen, and then to write one new line. Then the two lines were folded and passed on. This went on till the papers were full. Then we read them out in turn! There were 4 of us playing! This one was the best, and it contained ZORPIA! lol The end of the year is almost here We'll drink some wine and shed a tear, And soon it will be two thousand and nine. So out came the many bottles of sweet wine And on the stroke of midnight clear I'll hug and kiss you Husband dear! We'll watch the fireworks in the night, Catherine wheels to left and right Of us; before us: - crackers; one two three We pull them, they snap, and we shout with glee. The jokes inside them can be very lame Surely not the writers' intended aim. Soon these were posted in Zorpia Is the plural of 'Scorpion' 'scorpia'? As in 'phenomenon' turns to 'phenomena'. I don't think I will ever get commoner This game is causing a lot of stress The poems will all end up a mess But as long as they're funny no-one will mind The best ones ought to be signed And published in a handsome book So everyone can take a look! HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE *SMILES* & *HUGS*
