Sometimes, when no one else can play
I make up silly rhymes to say,
like pink ink stinks and bugs hug rugs
and thugs lug buggy rugs away.
If flies buy pies and guys fly by,
what kind of world does that imply?
Would nine swine dine on porcupine
to stick a needle in their sty?
If bees’ knees freeze, then what of fleas?
Do fleas’ knees freeze as much as bees’?
How high the sky? Can dry eyes cry?
My head is buzzing. Tell me, please.
Once I begin, I must admit
it takes a bit of grit to quit.
That’s why I play rhymetime until
my mother has a fit. That’s it.

ha. fun rhymes today sue....run porcupine, run....
I've been writing rhyming poetry for nearly sixty years so I just loved this. Mine is not nearly so humorous! I think life jaded my sense of humor.
What a happy post!
What a fun read.
Rhyme time...sounds like fun!
This is a fun one to share with kiddos.. You're so creative and you manage to entertain the old (me!) and the young...or maybe it's the young (me!) and the younger?!
I love this!
What gets me is that not only do you find and put together great word combos but you also always have great pics!
What a funny and original post. Thanks for the laugh.
I love it! Great fun. Very Dr Seuss.
That is fun to read! Your rhyme and the photos are great together..
I love Sue's views
and all of her news,
but I'd really like to read
more posts of Rhymetime...indeed!
I like bikes and hikes too :P
You are so funny, honey!!
I remember this one. You don't have to be a kid to enjoy it. No wonder it got published! I still don't understand how you found such perfect pictures to go with it, even though the "Mom" picture isn't quite "me" I never looked that good.
Fun post, thanks for sharing! Nan
What a fun poem. Did you make it into a book? I would totally buy it!
This was fun to read - just the kind of poem kids love and take delight in! Your grandkids are soooo lucky.
That's a real nice post to read with my first cup of coffee !
Well, doesn't that put a smile on my face!
Sue, I love your rhymes. They get my mental motor going. Also makes me realize that I need to be a less of a stick-in-the-mud.
Great Alphabe-Thursday post - such great rhymes! Have a great weekend too and see you again soon,
XOXO Lola:)
So clever! Still chuckling over "nine swine dine on porucpine" :-)
Hehe, this is too cute :) Strangely enough, some of your rhymes did get me thinking about the randome things. Like do bees' have knees? Do they freeze? Hmmm...you definitely come up with some fun things to wonder about!
You are too much fun! What a perfect post for me to read on a Friday!
Very intellectual and hilarious entry!!! Love it.
Great way to start my day, with a smile!
Wheneve I come her, I always know you'll have something that I will want to remember! This post is such a hoot!!!
That made me smile. Thanks for that.
Dr. Suess must be mighty jealous! And now I am wanting to read a children's book written by the lovely Sue. So fun!
LOVE IT!!! :)
Love the rhymes.
Make me smile.
Oh, but that's so much fun! Don't EVER quit!
You are so creative! My grandkids would love that.
Sue, you are a wicked wordmaster. Ooops, should have saved that comment for the letter "W".
Thanks for the smile!
Thanks for being such an important part of this meme.
Visiting you is always really wonderful!
